  Hi fellow knights, It’s been a little bit longer since our last update. There will be fewer updates as we approach release, since most work is behind the scenes with various bug fixing etc. We added 4 new levels and redid level 6. Which means tons of new fun to give a go if you have been playing the game for a while. We also added two translations, Danish and French. We will add more at a later date. Lastly we added a feature some of our players have been requesting, key binding which means you can change the current setup and make it your own. It should make it easier to be two players on one keyboard. We also fixed some bugs. Stay Knightly !

• Update 5 - Introducing Arcade Mode - 25 June 2020

  The summer is upon us. What better way to spend a evening than firing up under KnightOut to keep your mind off that terrible sunburn you got. KnightOut now features an arcade mode. In arcade mode you will fight against hordes of enemies, singleplayer og co-op with a friend. We implemented Steam leaderboards so you can compete against us and other players which really gives it another dimension. Currently it features 3 different enemy types. It’s a work in progress and we are actively working on it. We want to improve the AI and add more enemies that we already have been working on. The mode needs some more variety but we want you to get your hands on the mode as early as possible so we can get a better idea of how to take it further. With your help we can take the game mode to the next level, so please leave us your feedback. We are celebrating this update with a 30% discount! Changes:…

• Update #1 - 31 March 2020

  Thank you for playing KnightOut and for giving us feedback on the forum and discord. Changes: Duplicate player bug is fixed: We now check if there is a player already on the map, if there is we can't spawn more. Explosion damage from cannons reduced from 150 to 49. Because the cannons needed to be balanced so it wasn’t only a battle of cannons.

Increased wood walls vulnerability against explosions. Stuck at loading screen: If you get this bug we would be happy to hear how you got it.

  After 3 years we are finally releasing KnightOut into early access, we hope you will join us on this journey. Along with that comes a new trailer. Exciting right?
