Super Chibi Knight

Really charming art styles and voice acting, however i felt like the game is a bit too easy (no penalty for dying, blocking and dashing felt inconsistent, the final act is very lackluster). Still recommend this game because it's cheap and felt worth the money to me.

It's cute but goddamn it's shite

Super Chibi Knight is a spiritual successor (or rather, a sequel) to an old Flash game from the golden days of browser gaming—back when those were still around and thriving. Thankfully, you don’t need to have played the original Chibi Knight to understand the story of Super Chibi Knight.

At its core, Super Chibi Knight is a hack-and-slash game with some RPG elements, wrapped up in a colorful, charming art style. The game was created by a passionate father who handled the coding and artwork, while his then 8-year-old daughter voiced the main protagonist—a fun little detail that adds to the game’s charm.

The game features simple controls, nice visuals, and easy-to-learn mechanics. The story itself is as straightforward as it gets: a big bad villain threatens the world, and a chosen child must rise to save the day. Very Zelda-esque. The world is semi-open, allowing for some freedom in quest selection, and certain quests even have different outcomes depending on your choices.

There are two routes you can take:

The Beast Tamer path, which makes the game feel like a walk in the park.
The Mage path, which turns the experience into a clunky, low-budget Dark Souls run.
In my opinion, the Beast Tamer route is overpowered, while the Mage path is a wasted opportunity. Mana doesn't regenerate, so you’re forced to either scavenge for MP potions or—more absurdly—kill yourself and respawn with full HP and MP. Since there's no real penalty for dying, this turns the whole mechanic into a joke.

Difficulty-wise, the only real challenge is completing the entire game as a Mage without dying once—which is more frustrating than rewarding. The final boss is disappointingly easy, and enemies sometimes behave strangely, making it awkward or even impossible to hit them.

All in all, Super Chibi Knight is okay. I enjoyed playing it, but nostalgia probably played a big role in keeping me invested. The game is fun, though, and I'd recommend it only if you have fond memories of the original Flash game. It frequently goes on sale for just a few cents, so if you’re curious, you won’t be losing much by giving it a shot. It's short, but it has its charm.

TL;DR

Pretty good, I guess better than flash version since it's the full game.
However be wary to not cringe from old memes.

Visually it was interesting, as for the combat parts, well... no, I was just going forward by just leveling up and brutally tanking and destroying everything without a care because combat is very random, the worst is surely the boss where you need to use the shovel as the hitboxes are almost non existant combined with the worst combat system just for that occasion.
The parts where you use beasts are probably the most interesting ones.
Maybe remaking it properly would be very interesting to see

It's a decent enough game until you get to the final boss, which is a very boring battle of attrition. For the sake of nostalgia I'll give it a "yes"

hot garbage.

Harder than Dark Souls.

This game has a special place in my heart since I was a little kid

it's a very cute game, but unfortunately it is really difficult. This review so far may have game reviewers drooling and staring dreamy eyed at this game at the thought of comparing it to Dark Souls, perhaps with the headline of "Baby's First Dark Souls", or some other genius manipulation of the English language that all critics have, but alas, it's more of the bullshit kind. (Not that this wards of the dark souls comparisons, I'm sure.)
Before I'm sure many of you would salivate the words "Git gud" on your keyboard with the impeccable precision is actually very impressive, I would like to point out the fact that there's not much to actually get good at - I'm almost certain that half of the enemies that I've fought so far's telegraphs for when they're going to attack are beyond that of the human reaction speed, while on crack cocaine. I've not played many "super-difficult" games, so perhaps this is one of them and I just am not aware of the trend, but there is no doubt in my mind that it should at least not be like this in the first levels.
Even if the game was demanding some kind of super-deliberate, high-focus, frame-perfect precision, it would immediately fall flat on its face on roll away due to its cute spherical chibi body into several large, heavy incoming trucks driven by dogs of which the only toys they have ever played with are balls to catch, due to specifically and only the fact that there is an impossible to unbind (as far as I could tell) control for dashing by moving in the same direction twice, and is followed up by its adorable body being completely and absolutely slam-dunked into a basketball hoop on fire due to it being a platformer with instantly-killing spikes.
I would love to love this game, what with it being a family project and the art being great and everything appearing very cute and well made, I just can't really stand to play it for much longer.

Linux build doesn't work for me. Proton didn't work without tweaking, either. To make the game work, it requires the following launch option in the properties to be able to start on Linux, using Proton, for me: PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command%

Then it seems to work great.

i loved this game because its adventures and when you beat the game you feel great!

amazing game, thanks for the experience
