Spooky season is upon us, and what better way to celebrate than talking about the many unworldly goings on within Knights in Tight Spaces.

With Fights in Tight Spaces, we always wanted the game to have a certain amount of verisimilitude. A story of a bloke armed with nothing but a natty dress sense and reloadable fists taking down a series of international crime syndicates with his bare hands isn’t exactly realistic, but it is at least grounded in a certain internal consistency. This meant that aside from a couple of exceptions (Flash Powder and Stagger represent!) there was never really the justification for “magical” abilities.

And while we want Knights in Tight Spaces to share some of that grounding (we’re still inspired more by action movies than we are classic high fantasy), when it comes to magic the gloves can come off. Unburdened as we are from the realms of physical reality, we have a world awash with special powers, and their practitioners - The Attuned - play an important role in how the story of the game pans out.

From a gameplay perspective the first thing that magic allows us to do is to unlock a whole entire tranche of new cards and abilities that allow for brand new tactical opportunities for the player, and challenges from the enemies. Indirect attacks force players to think more about where damage is coming from and how to protect themselves, magical attacks can be combined with conventional attacks using the support attack system, and additional synergies are available as characters can charge up friendlies or debuff enemies to extract party from otherwise impossible situations.

BUT more importantly the existence of the occult within the game also means we can introduce a range of halloween’s spookiest undead! From lowly but relentless zombies, through deadly ghosts, and armies of fallen skeleton warriors, there is a cavalcade of classic spooky folk ready to present the player and their party with fresh new dangers. Anyone who has played the recent demo (which is still available!) will know the challenges that Banshees and Skeleton Mages bring to the game.

Luckily it isn’t only enemy forces who benefit from undead influence, for KITS we have introduced a new shop type - the Necromancer. Lost a party member in a fight and still carting their body around? No trouble, as for a few coins the Necromancer can bring them back from the dead - good as new - unless you’ve left it too long, in which case there are other issues!

As always, wishlists and follow the game if you haven’t already and jump into the discussions here or on Discord.[discord.gg]
