I don't wanna be mean but I feel like a full remake of the black knight is too ambitious. The feeling of the original game is totally gone, the fog and darker lighting it looks more like roblox than the original game. I understand this is an alpha build but you should prioritize getting the controls and graphics down first before adding new content like the silver boss and extra costumes, I think they also take away from the original games identity just adding random costumes like lego, minecraft and idw. The controls are somehow even stiffer and unresponsive than the wii version. and there's no soul gauge either, one of the main mechanics from the original...
It feels like you'd be better making a black knight style fangame you could have full creative freedom, and that seems like what your priority is anyway with the new boss fight and apotos level. I hope that this project doesn't deter other people from attempting a more faithful and better feeling PC version of black knight

Hello, thank you for your comment, but I think you've misunderstood the alpha build concept somewhat, and I doubt you've played Black Knight recently. I'm very sure the graphics and controls will improve significantly as the project progresses, but the sword combat in the original Black Knight was never this sharp and responsive. I can say this very easily because I played extensively on Dolphin while preparing this demo. Also, I don't understand why you think extra content takes away from the game's spirit ultimately, whether or not to use extra content is entirely up to you. My goal with Project Reforged is to stay true to the original game while addressing its flaws with modern controls and graphics, and to add great ideas that were perhaps missing due to time constraints (like the silver boss battle) so that everyone can enjoy them. Also, the reason Soul Surge isn't in the game is because we don't start with it enabled in the Misty Lake section of the original game. This feature unlocks after you finish the first level of Camelot Castle and reach the blacksmith. That's why I saved it for the second demo.
