Swift By Knight is a 2D speed-running platformer where you propel and bounce off enemies while executing precise jumps!

Accelerate by running on the ground and hitting enemies and try not to lose your speed as you parkour to the end!

Disclaimer:

This game is a prototype, several sound effects and all music was used from Dustforce, and is temporary for the sake of getting a quick minimal viable testable version of the game.
