We fused shooter, rhythm, arcade, retro, and more in this Dante’s inferno meets Philippine Horror bullet-hell. Slay hell in this Philippine horrors, history, and literature fuse with Greek stories like Dante’s Inferno story. Good-Knight is a Butt-clenching Arcade Metal Game influenced by games like Super-Hexagon, Castlevania, and Touhou. It’s almost genre-less as it fuses genres like Shooters Rhythm Puzzle Bullet-Hell.
Game Play
You only need one button because you only have one job- survive from the bullet hell!With this magical button, you are able to perform turn around, attack, speed down, sustained attack. So yeah, use it responsibly, don’t miss fire your neighbor girl!
Use the arrow key or joystick to aim your attack. Destroy the bullet shooting enemy can make your survival much easier, but definitely not necessary. After you master the “dungeon dance move”, you won’t need them anymore- show some mercy to the pitful dungeon!
For rookies, we recommend using the bullet time button when the situation is intensified. It can save you anytime you want, the knight has already mastered this ability so that you can unlimitedly use it.
