Knytt Underground

Knytt Underground is a 2D adventure-exploration game with elements of arcade platformers and combining the mechanics of Knytt and Within a Deep Forest. From Knytt it borrows the freedom to climb vertical walls as well as being able to safely fall from any height . There are no hostile characters or antagonists in the story except for robots that follow a preset behavior and are confined to the room they spawn in. The game is set in a post-apocalyptic future where the surface has been rendered uninhabitable. However, there are many secret areas that exist off the in-game map, leading to over 1,800 total locations in all. Each region of the world has a distinct visual theme and some areas are analogous to the levels in Within a Deep Forest. The player controls Mi Sprocket, a "sprite" who sets out to make a wish at the Fairy Springs, but due to her inability to speak, she is misunderstood by everyone and unwillingly recruited into a mission to save the world.
