I figured I would try this sort of a topic out and see where it leads (hopefully not just like 10 posts and then bye-bye).
ABOUT
Knytt Stories is a game made by Nifflas, who has made several freeware games in the past. It is the sequel to Knytt, which I recommend trying out first before Knytt Stories, so that you have a feel of the knytt-world environment (and that Knytt has EXCELLENT level design and graphics/visuals, seriously, try it!).
The difference between Knytt and Knytt Stories is that Knytt Stories is basically the WA Editor, you can make your own levels (or, "Stories"). The other differences are that you're playing as a different character (Juni) in KS and that there is no real goal in the game, besides what each different level wants you to do to reach the end.
The level editor is a bit tricky to use, but less overwhelming than the WA Editor. You can download an unofficial editor manual here. With the editor, you can make your own backgrounds (or "Gradients"), tilesets, and music/ambience. The best part about all that is, when you compile your level into 1 file for others to download (like a .wa2 file, only it's .knytt.bin), everything goes into that 1 file, so you don't need to install anything into separate folders (like textures and icons for the WA Editor).
You can download Knytt Stories by clicking here.
[Side Note: You can also download the Knytt Stories DS port on the page I linked to above if you have an R4 to put it on. I've tried it out, and it's amazing playing it on there!]
To find levels to download for Knytt Stories, you can visit the Knytt Level Archive, or visit the Nifflas Forum and check out the levels there!
DOWNLOAD
I've made my own Knytt Stories level that has a tiny little backstory about it once you reach the end. It's called "Escape The Flood".
