Black Knight Sword

New Grasshopper Manufacture Game Announced
Written Thursday, August 18, 2011 By Lee Bradley
View author's profile

Suda 51’s Grasshopper Manufacture has announced another game. They’re working on a downloadable platformer called Black Knight Sword.

Developed in partnership with German Studio Digital Reality, the game is a 2D side-scroller with a rather distinct art style, taking place on a kind of plush looking theatre stage.

The game is set for release on XBLA early next year. It joins the shooter Sine Mora (also co-developed with Digital Reality), Codename D and Lollipop Chainsaw on the studio’s list of upcoming games. They’re busy chaps.

@2 You mean the game that was by an entirely different developer, was 400msp, critically acclaimed and well received, and the proceeds went towards Tsunami relief?

Oh yeah, we don't want any more games like that do we...

Where do these people come from...? :S

I agree with #1 - Shadows of the Damned was a damn good game, it's the only gamne I've ever played through 3 times one after another - anything coming out of the studio has to be worth a go!

Shadow of the damned sucked and that cheerleader shit looks even worse. I don't think anything good will come out of it, but at least they're keping it simple this time LOL

@4 That doesnt mean #2 has to like the game... I thought it was awful myself.

@Everyone else I think Shadows of the Damned was terrible which is sad because I love Suda 51 (Killer 7 is still one of my all time favs) and Shinji Mikami (Resident Evil is one of the best franchises of all time) but this game just fell short in so many areas. I had to force myself to finish it and I have NEVER had to force myself to play a video game. That took a lot of fun out of it. Got my 1000g and I will never play it again. Its a shame.

I guess maybe I'm in the minority, but I enjoyed Shadows of the Damned. Not enough to 100% it, but enough to be interested in playing more games by the developer. Looking forward to Lollipop Chainsaw, and I like a good 2D sidescroller.

Grass Hopper is one strange developer, No one should expect something sane from them

@14 so you forced yourself to finish it, then went on to finish it twice more for the 1000? Retard alert.

@4

Do you even think about what you're saying? Just because most people enjoyed it doesn't mean I have to. I didn't like nin2jump. I'm 100% sure that there's a game that you don't enjoy. But I'm not going to start throwing shit at you for it, am I?
