I'm the music man for the game, so I'm pretty biased all things considered but I'll try to be honest.

A game with far more emphasis on the Castlevania than the Metroid, the game adds a craftable weapon system into a game with much more focus on the precision platforming and fighting that the old NES Castlevania's did so well. It will kick your teeth in on some of the levels, even at the lowest difficulty, so definitely learn to use the weapons well.

It is still rough around the edges, but constant updates and improvements are still happening with new levels. If you can't get enough old school demon-whipping you will find a great time here.

HordeOfViscount responds:

-but it is so much better with the quality beats you put in this game for sure. The music easily carries each stage through to the end.

Played this game at a convention. Awesome game. Awesome Creator. Very well made. I would highly recommend trying it for yourself.

HordeOfViscount responds:

I sincerely appreciate the feedback! -and you are a fantastic player!

not my usual game but it played great on the legion go. fun one to pick up when have some spare time.

HordeOfViscount responds:

Thank you so much for your review! It is extra fun with a controller or keyboard! Let me know if you run into any issues with it and I can fix em quick.

It looks cool enough for GHALEON to play it! I'd bet all the Cannon Angels in the Grindery on it!

HordeOfViscount responds:

Did you mean "Magic Emperor Ghaleon?"

Awesome game! I'm not much of a gamer, but I'm gonna continue to play this one a bit, definitely solid work!

HordeOfViscount responds:

Thank you for the feedback! Don't worry, I've added a lot of features made for non-gamers! -and will continue to make more.
