It's April first! For everyone else, that means goofs and gags, but for us, it means Emerald Squad news! And we're here to announce
We're leaving.
Follow us on Bluesky for new updates!
In addition to boosting your health and easing boss difficulty, easy mode adds emerald blocks all across the stages, making difficult platforming a breeze!
There's no penalty for playing on easy mode, so play whatever makes your experience enjoyable!
The Shadow Knight is Aldark's powerful enforcer, created in his image. It's more intelligent than most of Aldark's creations and can lead his armies into battle. It will protect itself with a shield and strike back with slashes and bombs. It even can create its own Shadow Pawns!
Only where the flames burn hot can you find an enemy that really turns up the heat! The Shadow Flame sits still and blasts you with fireballs, and resists your own fire attacks. It doesn't like to move though, so if you can you could just go around it.
Walking along the coast you might witness *gasp* the miracle of birth. Shadow Turts pop out of their eggs to attack, but they can't do much aside from move back and forth. Their shell protects them, but I get the feeling something hitting them from underneath would crack them.
Found in various locales, the Shadow Bomb makes an explosive entrance, and an explosive exit too! They aren't very durable, but they explode when they die, so stay away! A single bit of fire is all it takes to light up their fuse, but they get taken out by a strong breeze anyway.
Is that just a rock on the ground? Look closer! It's a Shadow Stone! These enemies are found in rocky areas and attack in many directions. Be careful, they could pop out of the ground when you least expect it! Seems like they're weak to crushing force whacking them on the head.
