Hey folks! Figured I would clear this up because I’ve seen some concerns in the comments. [SPOILERS FOR THE RUN] The runs with cheat codes were attempts. As shown in the video, none of them work - and all abilities that we earned with them are effectively similar to a NG+ run. If you had a fully unlocked run, then the New game plus save would work the same as what we do here. As far as the amiibo, which is all we use in the last run, that’s up to your interpretation. Worth noting is that the saves of a cheat code file compared to an amiibo save file are labeled differently by the game itself (a pumpkin vs a ribbon, with the pumpkin referencing “cheater, cheater, pumpkin eater”) But so far as beating the game without using the shovel - it follows the rules, and we can see credits. Thanks for checking this one out! Have a good one, alright?
the war horn gives you a little amount of height per use. you could spam that to get just slightly higher to avoid amiibo usage. though this may not work during the tower of fate
Can the Anchor you get from Treasure Knight work in King Knight's Library to activate the books? With some careful timing and good positioning, you can potentially extend it and make the cauldron section at the end a bit easier.
Shovel knight is hard on new game plus *plauge knight is op* He just.... has so many ways of movement! With the goo garment and spin dash you can kill mole knight for 20 secs
Literally didn't know there was a new game plus. Only struggled on Shovel Knight and Plague Knight's campaign... And Co-Op, for obvious reasons. After those, I could pretty much handle everything the game threw at me. It should be fun to see how I fare agains NG+ It could also be that the newer campaigns are inherently easier or more forgivable. I mean, King Knight literally has an item that lets you skip through all the platforming sequences. I try not to use it much, but if you give players an easy way out, most will take it xD Still, Yacht Club really perfected the "Make the game as easy or hard as you want" formula. So hyped for whatever they make next.

Oh man I LOVE Shovel Knight! It was a huge inspiration to me while I was making my first game. The bosses are what stood out to me. They are all so different and unique!
Haha! I remember seeing this request in the comments and thinking, " Nah, it's just a joke. That's impossible." Lo and behold, here's a man out to prove the impossible in a very stupid but admirable way.
Dongeon Master no since most of the platforming consists of those and while there are some movement treasures for both sometimes they just can’t do the job
@@frisolaxod3835 That's what I would have said about the no shovel run before this video, so I have trouble believing that before someone extensively tests it.
omg you make this look so easy Okay, so I tried a run like this a while back, except with the differences being I wasn't allowed cheat codes, however I was allowed to use the shovel for anything that shovels are actually used for. The highlight was still probably the intro stage, trying to reflect black knight's projectiles 12 times with 8 hits you can take is fun. I also made the exception for enemies that were specifically designed to be shoveled off of, which allowed me to actually make it into Propeller knight's stage. I'm currently still stuck at the boss rush. But if you can do it with 100 elixir and chaos orbs, I sure probably can. I should get back on that.
The Jetpack Waffle That’s fair. I need to finish Twilight Princess. I’ve been playing for like two years now because I keep taking several month breaks in between playing because I hate having to set up the Wii U.

tip for anyone doing this themselves. King knights area is a bit easier then shown here. in the second book area you can actually just propeller dagger over all the platforms if you wait for the cauldrons to tip first. In the third area (which is a massive problem) if you are fast enough you can get to the platform next to the book and use the fishing rod to reset the timer.
My absolute favorite relic is the Dust Knuckles, both the low usage price and the awesome feeling of plowing through hordes of enemies makes them my go-to favorite!
Awesome! Seeing you pull out all of the stops for this one was really fun, thank you for taking on my challenge suggestion from your last challenge run!
Oh my god! I thought next "without something" video will be about another punch out game. But shovel knight it's kinda surprise! Really love this game! :) Still waiting for another punch out without dodging challenge ;)
3:41 Skip the Tutorial: We're gonna try all the relics without magic restrictions, luckily there's a code for that. Me: Don't give that code to the Game Gru... Dan: HELLO!!! INFINIDAGGER!!!
While I do think it was neat to see this. I don't think it's fair to say that you can beat Shovel Knight without the Shovel Blade. As it can only be done on systems that can use the amiibo and not over all the versions. Still I didn't think it was possible at all. So nice to see that I was proven wrong on that part.
@@cheesydelite6532 dude I know that the PC version probably can't use amiibo (if it has one) but I have a new 2ds xl I got for my birthday and I have Shovel knight treasure trove AND the amiibo and this amiibo was brand new and I don't own a Wii u or the switch and I have a maxed out amiibo on the 3ds (not saying the long name for my Ds) so moral of the story is your an idiot and the 3ds version has amiibo support
Except the moral of the story is that Shovel Knight is a multiplatform game. I don't know about Xbox, but I know for sure the game exists on PlayStation and PC. Turns out, neither the PlayStation nor PC versions have Amiibo support, and, therefore, cannot be beaten without the shovel.
Shovel knight is a near perfect game it manages to perfectly encapsulate the emotions and characteristics of all the characters through the music dialogue and gameplay. In addition to that the gameplay is a great experience for any player.
There's a speed running strategy for tinker Knight. As he reaches his second stage, use the mobile gear. It should skip it. It's hard to pull off, for me anyways.
Wow, it’s been a month now since the last boss related video. Hope they’ll be back soon. These challenge ones are nice too but in addition, not as the main focus instead of Boss Battle Breakdown.
I want to bring back 3B - but I think it was starting to slip, and that's on me. I don't want to do the series halfway, and hopefully when it comes back it'll be even better. I don't plan on this as a "main focus," but I do have another project that really excites me for the coming future
Now I'm curious of the other Campaigns... Plague of Shadows without using a Bomb throw, and Specter of Torment without Scythe Swings... The former being just the bomb chucks...not the Bomb Jump. The Latter is both regular & angled swipes. Hope this happens! I'd be hype.
Looking at this, with the amount of relics you can get so early on, doing this jumpless and shoveless seems very plausible. It might not even be a whole lot harder
Hey Kevin - I wish I could give a concrete date past when I feel I can do it right, but I’m not entirely sure when that is. I felt the series was weakening because of my experience, and I didn’t want to see it get worse. I do want to talk about those topics in the future, but right now, other projects have caught my interest. That’s not a clean cut answer, but just know that I miss them too - but I don’t want to do anything halfway
Fair enough. I would rather have the content have an inconsistant upload scheduele and still be good, rather then bad content with a consistant upload scheduele because the creator is burnt out. Still can't wait for the next game design video.
spelunky is a really fun game to play it should be possible, but because of random levels it can be a problem. visit to the black market should give enough ropes to win.
Trying to beat the campaigns without using the main attack method is actually one of my favorite ways to play the game! I also hope to see a "minimum gold" run. Getting 0 gold is impossible because of bosses, and there's a lot of spots that require you to pick up gems to progress. But there's still a minimum amount required to beat the game. PS: I watched the video and realized that my "relic only" runs are a lot different. I actually allow myself to use pogo jumps, bomb jumps and dash slashes for PLATFORMING but not for combat. However, I start the game as a normal run with no codes, so I guess there's that.
@@skipthetutorial since it automatically gives it to you and you don't actually pick up the gold off the ground it doesn't count as collecting the gold
@@KaitouKaiju I'm not sure if I would count new game plus either, because technically it's just a continuation of the regular game, which requires a shovel.

Trying to beat the campaigns without using the main attack method is actually one of my favorite ways to play the game! I also hope to see a "minimum gold" run.
