Shovel Knight would appear in my Top 10 if I could be bothered to make my monthly workload that large.I suspect the same is true with many people here.
In general though, people rarely vote for indie games in this feature. The big point-winners tend to be exclusive retail games. As Shovel Knight is an indie game appearing on a number of platforms, including some that already have platformers aplenty, people are not very likely to vote for it. Heck, Shovel Knight is not even the only major Mega Man styled indie game coming to the eShop in the next few months! You've also got Azure Striker from Inafune.
So far in April edition, for example, not a single indie sku has over 4 points, despite the top couple of games being in the 90's. Though it's worth noting that Shovel Knight HAS gotten multiple votes this month, which is not bad considering it was ineligible the first week or so.
Love and tolerate.
