do you know why my game ticks much faster? the enemies and everything move very quickly (im also running this on wine)

It could be that wine sets the framerate to 60fps, while the original framerate is 30fps.

Hello, the only thing missing is the sounds of the game and another map

Will you add gamepad support and put on steam?

I just added gamepad support :)
It's an unofficial demake, so I don't think I can put it on Steam.

CONTROLS

With Hollow Knight I got used to jump with Z, attack with X, dash with C and heal with A.

If you feel the same - you can easily remap your keys. Just install AutoHotKey, create a file called silksong-dm.ahk, insert the four lines below in that file, save it and run it. Don’t forget to stop the script after you’re done playing.

z::k
x::j
a::e
c::l

Hi! That is a bug. It should only be available in Deep Docks(second level in the menu). You can use it there as much as you want :)

o ok thank you

I love this game its so fun and it feels like i'm playing the actual game

I freaking love the snappy feel when you grab the ledges. controls are great too and mechanics where upward and down attacks are telegraphed well. boss fight is fair but challenging too. i made a demake of this too for the original gameboy and gameboy color, its a bit terrible compared to this but its faithful to the hardware its made for. https://elvies.itch.io/silksongdemake

when the wait becomes painful and the Game Awards come to drain us, a hero arrives with a neat pixel art demake

i liked it, i just didn't finish the Lace fight bc i got tired lol, but it's a pretty good boss fight for a little project that, and i hope its not insensitive to say, i don't imagine you spent the longest time on

in any case, very nice :3
