Overview
Carrottia is under siege! Foxes are trying to take over and steal the town's sacred treasure: the centerpiece of The Golden Crest. Worse yet, they seem to work for the ferocious wolves. Your quest as Bonnie is to find the remaining pieces of the Golden Crest and repel the invading forces once and for all — but this mission won't be easy; the parts are all deep into the territory of the fox tribes and they're not going to just hand it over either.
BuKnight is a fun and speedy action-platformer mixing the late-90s era mascot fever with the mid-2000s indie game craze. Use your up- and downsmash attacks, as well as the special swirling move to hurl pain at your enemies or to change your momentum and dodge their attacks as your zoom past or towards them.
Stay tuned and enjoy!
