In my last video about one-hit 2D indie fighting games, I didn't mention Nidhogg, much to the shock of dozens of commenters. Here you go, a video on Nidhogg and some reflection on why I didn't think of it when working on the last video. Sometimes Nidhogg feels like a fighting game, and sometimes like a platformer - let's get into it.

00:00: Nidhogg
05:38: Similar games (Eggnogg+, Griefhelm, Nidhogg 2).

I captured most of the footage, but I include short clips from these videos:
