Re-release: Knytt Classic
News posted 17th August, 2026 by The Chris Street  
Twenty years ago, the klik classic Knytt was released to the community by now well-known indie developer Nifflas. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of this release, another developer - Bit Kid has ported this - now called Knytt Classic - for modern machines (although I'm not 100% certain this version was created with a Clickteam product). With over 1500 screens to explore, this classic game has been reborn. If you've never experienced a Knytt game... you're in for a treat :)

Comments from the Creator:
"To help celebrate the 20th anniversary, Bit Kid (Chasm, WOLFHOUND) is proud to present Knytt Classic, a free pixel-perfect port with full controller support, achievements, bonus modes, display effects, and much more! Guide the Knytt, a peaceful being who is abducted by aliens for a cruise across the solar system and ends up crash-landing on another world. Explore the atmospheric, maze-like planet and collect all the parts from your crashed ship in order to return home."

Nice to see this brilliant game getting a modern re-release. SteamDB says that Classic was made using FNA and XNA.

It isn't that long ago that I was enjoying Knytt Stories and playing a custom game made using its level editor. Great puzzles, atmosphere, and play-feel.

https://www.polygon.com/knytt-classic-beloved-platformer-20th-anniversary-release/ states that: "Hempuli, the developer behind celebrated indie puzzler Baba Is You, also worked on Knytt Classic to design the Knytt XH (Extra Hard) mode".
