We, knights, should be able to swim in water and fight underwater monsters! ;D
Deadly-Panda founded the idea.

also just let us get into the haven fountain for a bit. We might break it, but hey, splash time!
This sounds like a good idea and I get two essencial different ideas out of it:
1) Fighting with feet in clear water: It is actually only a visual thing, but it will definitely have a great look and allows some really interesting landscapes if you have parts of the levels that are watered. The depth of this water would be 1 block high or less. (I am thinking about an Aurora Level with jellies and chroma breeding places around a lake :3)
2) Completely Underwater-Level. Well this is actually a thing that is harder to code if you ant to make it realistical: You can easily give the whole level a blue overlay and add rising bubbles everywhere to give the impression of beeing underwater. Since levels are in a Ball-type object it is also physical logical that these levels can exist in Spiral-logic.
But fighting underwater is a bit different. You would be constantly slowed down because of higher resistance than in air. It will allow Fish-type enemies who will be significantly faster than knights, so a rush-through a level is contraproductive. Since Knights seem to be more like robots than humans, they probably would not require an air tank.
I would totally agree for both variants since I really love water <3
yeah, i could see the first variant actually being done, which would be nice. potentially gives some extra variation to levels, even if just aesthetically
some how i doubt that true swimming or even full underwater levels would be included, though they would be really cool especially if they slowed everything down, knights, non-water specific monsters, probably projectiles as well, though that would be more difficult, as you suggested
i wouldnt mind having underwater levels that quite literally just applied cosmetic changes, blue tinge, bubbles, wavy seaweed - though including an air function would be kinda exciting, have a bar of air that depletes while roaming the underwater labyrinth which can be refilled via air bubbles/pockets. obviously our little androgynous quasi robotic knights wouldnt die from running out of breath just slowly take damage - say 1/2 pip every second or so(might have to scale with tier), and reviving would have to refill air as well as health...
there where at least
3-9000 posts about water armor, monsters, levels and everything considering watter in general.
that being said just gime the harpoon, add some new levels and lets get the huntin seson started
I really like this idea, and I would also like to be able to swim or at least enter the Haven fountain in the town square. In fact, there could be a secret portal in there that would take us to to the underwater levels.
Yes, Midnight-Dj agrees
