Shovel Knight will be getting a price increase to $40 by tomorrow, Dec 10th

oh great -_-
OK its a good game but absolutely not worth 40$

It is... u$25 was just for Shovel Knight, now you have it plus Plague Doctor, plus Spectre Knight, PLUS the 2 new games... maybe it would be less painfull to have separte games, but that's the reason of the price.

I must agree though that Shovel Knight on its own, is not worth 40u$, but with all the adds, it sure does

Shovel Knight: King of Cards and Shovel Knight Showdown arrive on December 10th, 2019 as free updates for owners of Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove. While Specter have a stand alone version with his own achivments, cards, etc, etc
Im agree with you guys $40 is too much. Maybe a $30 but not $40.

Great game, I got it for 9€ a while ago, just started playing again.

$20 right now in the humble store with the choice discount

lol

I kinda regret not buying this game back when it was cheaper but looking at its ever increasing pricetag I guess it's gonna be one of those games I just wait a decade before getting around to buy and play.

The only place they can go from here is UP

Nice strategy. Next time it's on sale it'll probably be the same price as now and still appear "heavily" discounted.

Why don't they go to $59,99 to match with Red Dead Redemption 2? No need to play around to get there.

Everyone that complains about the price increase should really just go buy the games they like separately then. It will be cheaper that way. This is a nice gesture to those that already own the trove by getting the new contents for free instead of charging them like most other devs do as DLCs.

Here is the link to the original Shovel Knight game: https://store.steampowered.com/app/589500/Shovel_Knight_Shovel_of_Hope/ (which will be buyable when Treasure Trove price increases, see even the devs thought of you lot that just want the base game and not the entire collection)

Treasure trove is like 5 games in 1 now so its probably a fine price. I got a physical copy from my local game store when i saw the price was going up the 1st time a couple of years back. 1 thing im disappointed about is showdown lack of online play, as im not convinced with the steam play together thing.

Kinda pissed about them not releasing the last dlc for 3ds treasure trove owners. I paid 40$ already on 3Ds, was worth it, but expected to get the last dlc too.

Free CV :D

So eventually it will be 1000€?

can some explain me, as i understand there is 1 original showel knigght with everything, and rest are just like separate episodes for purchase?

Worth its pricetag tbh. I've had so much more fun with this than with many AAA titles

It is a good game and I respect developers who don't devalue their games with steep discounts and bundles. If I hadn't got it at a lower price it would probably be a hard sell for me personally, especially with no way to upgrade from separate games to treasure trove. But if they can get away with going from $15 to $25 to $40 then more power to them.

been meaning to play this for years now. i guess this price hike did the trick. bought on hb for $20 with the 20% discount.

What i don't understand is why they went through this really convoluted multiple-appid route when they could have just kept the additional characters as DLC.
Or why not just give the new apps to the backers? Keep all the games separate, put them in a store bundle.
It's especially irritating for completionists since you basically will have to complete the games twice all over again.
