About this Mod
HOLLOW KNIGHT ORIGINS: THE KNIGHT
This origin's development was commissioned by suspiciousdino75 on Discord, and it has been made public for the purposes of gathering playtest data and feedback. The objective here is to port the experience of playing as the Knight from the hit indie game Hollow Knight to Origins with slightly better results than it’s been done before and in a somewhat game-accurate manner, trying to preserve as many mechanics as possible as they are in the original game.
