Knytt is one of those games that everyone in the indie gaming community knows about. It's featured on loads of sites.

It's just a shame that it's always the same few games you see on every site instead of people looking really deep and finding good games.

Don't you guys think Knytt is a tad overrated. Gameplay wasn't fun at all for me :[

Knytt was a great game, one of the best click games I've seen.

Na I agree that it is / was massively overrated. It's only good because of the music (which wasn't amazing, lets be honest) and that the map is so annoyingly big.

It had charm though, which I think is why it appealed to so many. I tired of it very quickly... I found about 4 things then couldn't be bothered any more. ;_;

Yeah and now everyone will have it in their top 50 indie gaming lists because people rarely dig deep enough to find good games.
I'm not saying Knytt is bad, i dont know because ive never played it.

But out of the millions of freeware games there are only a few that actually become well known and it's not because they're the best.

"It's only good because of the music (which wasn't amazing, lets be honest)"

The atmospheric style of the music in Knytt was a deliberate design choice. Have you heard any of Nifflas other mods? In my eyes, he's far better than anyone here on TDC, and even among the best on Modarchive.

Also: Knytt Stories is coming out 30 August, but it's going to be shareware this time: http://nifflas.ni2.se/index.php?main=04Knytt_Stories

"In my eyes, he's far better than anyone here on TDC"

I'm not too sure about that... there's a lot of hidden talent here.

Edit: And it was the atmospheric style etc that was good about it! but still, that wasn't amazing - imo.

I love Nifflas style and that, but Ben Mercer and Mr. Pineapple have entertained my ears a little better. Ben for his super orchestral and industrial sounding stuff, Pineapple for his genre dexterity and originality.

But when I think of Klik musicians them 3 are the only ones that come to mind. If there's hidden talent - show it

Kind of related, Chalk was in this month's PCZone magazine. The click game I mean, not a money saving print alternative.
