Knytt has influenced much of the indie game landscape today so I was always curious about playing it.

delightful little platformer that is weirdly reminiscent of rain world despite not having survival mechanics. also has amazing music that is stored as OGG files. would definitely recommend to a friend. it took me less than 2 hrs to complete it but i know i missed out on a lot of secrets. asks the question what if you could climb on every single wall...
