Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.71/day in the week to Aug 22 → 1.86/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About
Shady Knight is a pure skill-based experience. There are no locked abilities to hold you back, the only thing that matters is how well you can master the power you’ve been given. Prove yourself worthy and break the cursed path of trials or lose yourself to the abyss of obsession.
Your weapons react to your state, charging a strike from a slide or in the air leads to different moves. Even more interesting combinations appear once you discover that you can jump off enemies' heads or wall-kick to trigger more powerful abilities. Even a simplest thing such as a barrel can be used for both parkour and combat.
These two are always at your side making you deadly as hell even when unarmed, and nothing stops you from combining many of their abilities with other weapons for even crazier combos.
Learning your movement allows you to become truly intangible in combat. Master slide jumping and learn the trickiest wall-kicking techniques to reach your goal with the flow.
There are always multiple things you can do at each given moment: switch weapons, combine different moves, discover all contextual abilities and use the environment to reach the highest ranks. The style system isn't there to tell you how to play, it's a reflection of your skills and knowledge.
Even with all of your skills, there are still knights out there waiting to take you to the limit. Four main hubs full of highly replayable towers packed with challenging combat scenarios, platforming bits and opportunities for creative environmental kills.

Underrated. Fast-paced, engaging, and emergent melee physics gameplay.
Its pretty fun, theres a lot of tutorial levels though
Ah, yes. Grappling chains, swords, bows, and weirdly strong kicks. What more could you ask for?

Buy it. Right now.
Ах если бы у этого была хотя-бы маленькая часть ультракилл коммьюнити, возможно на 800 положительных отзывов и игрой в "подвешенном" состоянии мы бы не остановились...
A fun and unique movement game that is pretty satisfying when you get it down. Shady Knight's game-play is pretty exhilarating and is very fun when you nail down a certain flow. Its different from other movement games as its more focused on melee. However, I feel like as they add more shield types to enemies, it just messes with the pacing of the game.
This game really has a lot to be proud of. The ambiance, the style, the art, the artistic direction as a whole is really well handled, reminds me of an old game called revenge of the titans a bit, I really like the whole back and red aspect of the game itself, how green, the protagonist's color contrasts with all this through the chain and various elements you can use but not the enemies. The gameplay itself also does a lot right, the combat is snappy, rewarding and in my opinion not too hard to get good enough at to flow trough the levels in a satisfying and impressive way. There are some trickier levels that slowed down my progression a bit, but I think trying to lock in a specific path from start to finish will naturally make things harder so that might be on me. I do have a little gripe with the chain, as it could I think come out a bit faster so that catching yourself while falling would be a bit easier and catching enemies at ledge when getting thrown out would be more possible, but the chain itself is such a wonderful mechanic I'm honestly not even mad. When I first tried the prototype for this game on itch.io I was pumped to see it one day fully released, safe to say I'm not disappointed at all.
