Destructoid: "Shovel Knight is almost here -- just one more week until you can get your hands on it. But before then, Yacht Club Games has decided to share their thought process on how they're handling checkpoints, starting with the abandoned "invisible" point system, a la Mega Man -- you die, you start back at a pre-determined point.
