- Knightblade Now Available on Mobile - 3 November 2022
Hello everyone! After a long process and much debugging, I am happy to announce that Knightblade has finally been ported to Android! It has been a lengthy process, but Knightblade is now live and ready to download from Google Play. I honestly feel as a developer, that making a game ad-free and in-app purchase-free is the only way to go. I purposely made sure this is a one-time purchase, with no distracting ads or unnecessary additions. Instead this is an exact port of the PC game, with some minor changes. The audio quality will be lower to fit the compression I needed for the smaller game size, the movie theater has been removed, and the biggest change is that the enemies have been replaced. Knightblade Mobile will feature different enemy art, static instead of animated, and a different style to accommodate the platform change. The price will be slightly lower than the PC version, becau…

- Knightblade 1.4.1 Update Released - 28 May 2022
Hello everyone, Just a small update today. A new shield has been added to the island shop, and a bug fix has been implemented. For some, a low memory issue could cause the Battle Results screen to lag or even crash the game, especially when escaping. I have decided to remove that screen all together. Now the EXP you earned and items you picked up during the battle will be displayed in a message box. This will also make escaping much quicker, since you simply escape from the battle after selecting that action. I'll give updates on the DLC content including Underwater Kingdom as we head into summer. Have a great memorial day weekend everyone! -Nick

- Knightblade 1.4.0 Update Released - 14 April 2022
Hey everyone, just a quick update! Bug fixes as usual, but also something pretty noticeable. A new popup when you pick up an item! This is pretty big as anyone who has farmed or mined in Knightblade will be aware of the very annoying scrolling text that passed by when you picked up something. I'm happy to say that the scrolling text is gone. Replacing it is a slick popup over the player's head with an icon and text showing what you have picked up. This makes farming SO much quicker, and also more fun! I believe I removed the scrolling text from every item pickup in the game, but if you notice it anyone else please report it. Maybe this will open the door for more crops and a bigger farm in the future? If you'd like that let me know! More to come! -Nick
- Knightblade 1.3.0 "Spookiville" Update Released - 11 April 2022
Hey everyone, A new update has been released! This one is substantial. There are some bug fixes, a few graphical changes, and new icons for the fishing gear.. but the big update is a new town! Welcome to Spookiville, the town where it's autumn year round. The new town features the Grand Wizard, where players can learn new spells. Spookiville also features a cinema, and some fun houses to play around in. More serious quests will eventually be added here, so far now some of the doors in town will be locked. I'm really pleased with how the tileset came out, since the town is really giving off those Halloween-time vibes I was aiming for. You'll be able to access the town the traditional way via the world map, but only if you have completed the story. If you haven't completed it, there's actually a fun way to access it: via a teleporter. You'll see the teleport device on the map near Mirage.…
- New Update Coming: Spookiville "Autumn" Town - 7 April 2022

Bug fixes will be included in the next update, but there will also be a brand new town! Welcome to Spookiville! A new town where it's autumn year-round. Pumpkins line the streets, trees are a shade of orange, and the residents welcome you to their town. I won't disclose what secrets are inside this town, but I will include a screenshot below! The next update will be out soon. -Nick
