Knight Launch — launching a knight from a trebuchet
The goal is simple: send the knight as far as you can. You load the trebuchet and pick the perfect moment to let go. A throw in the golden zone counts as PERFECT. Along the way, the knight flies through several areas, from the fortress to the edge of the world. If you want more medieval physics, just with cannonballs instead of knights, there’s Cannon Balls.
In the air, objects on the track push the knight around. A haystack sends him higher, while a cow knocks him off in a surprise direction. You can blow up a powder barrel right in mid-air, and it adds extra distance. The royal cloak opens up and lets the knight glide longer. For every meter you fly, you earn gold. Use it to buy a heavier counterweight, armor, extra barrels, and a cloak that lasts longer.
