Rocket Knight is easily one of my favorite platformers ever, so hopefully this isn't too disappointing.

Woohoo! Rocket Knight Revival! I was just going to post about this after reading the preview at 1up.com: http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?cId=3176349

Looks like you got beat by 2 minutes.

A Steam release! Very nice!

Yay! Rocket Knight! This is one franchise that I thought Konami would never bring back; but I'm very thankful that they will be; also the fact that it's a new game, and not just a remake makes this news even better.

I've been waiting for more rocket knight. I was hoping it'd be more like the other konami rebirth games though. That way after they made enough of them they could put them all on a disc together. . .

This isn't being developed by anyone over at Konami. The art style is way off.

I don't like the 3d look at all, but it could be my 2d retro biased preference.

Rocket Knight Adventures and Sparkster were one of the best platform games I have ever played! When I heard that is being in development I was really excited since it was forgotten for 15 years! BUT when I saw the new 3D art style I was thrown from a 20 floor building without a parachute! The game looks like SHIT! I won't talk about the animation and other technical stuff because it is early and they will probably fix all that. But the way the game looks and feels destroys the whole RKA magic.. Really sad!

Just looked at this video which I took from the other thread in this forum on the same topic:

And have to take my words back.

Gameplay looks great!
