Shovel Knight - Now Available on Linux!

Hey! You there! Shovel Knight is now available on Linux! No longer must you brave the perils of emulators, virtual machines, dual booting, or what-have-you to do battle against the forces of evil. Now that Windows, Mac and Linux are all released, you can play Shovel Knight on your system(s) of choice!

If you're using a controller but it's not being detected on Linux, or any platform, you can help out by submitting your device information. It's easy! Just check out this page.

Version 1.2.1 also includes a few minor changes:

•Clarified cheat activation text to be a little less scary.
•Fix: Gastronomer forgetting to serve remaining meals if Shovel Knight leaves just as a sequential meal was being served. Ah, the old dine and dash and then dine again trick...

Not all that much, right? That's because the team is hard at work on some exciting big new updates! First up is playable Plague Knight! It will be a transmutationally fun time!
