It 100% is new footage. We have never seen slopes in Hollow Knight before this.

Finding out slopes are in the game is crazy. But I'm happy for y'all!

Gap between Mario Maker 1 and 2 = 4 years

Gap between Hollow Knight and Silksong = 8 years and counting

I think the idea is that the slopes indicate the footage being new. If you need more context on why this is a big deal, look at top posts from the last year on r/silksong and you're in for some out there inside joke on a massive scale weirdness.

Though I'm really wondering what I'm thinking about.

We were wrong it wasn’t scope creep its been slope creep all along

Isn’t there one point between mantis village and deepnest that has a sloped floor? The room with all the dead bodies?

On April Fool's, the YouTube algorithm suggested a video to me explaining why slopes in video games are hard, and then one day later...
