Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon - Full Playthrough (Zangetsu Solo, No Upgrades, No Death)

Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon is a 8-bit style Castlevania-like game promised as a stretch goal of the 2015 Kickstarter campaign for "Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night."

So... We have an almost completed boss run of Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. Soon it will appear on Shadowserg's channel. But while you wait for it I offer you to watch the playthrough of a retro-styled spin-off game which was released some time ago. I already recorded boss runs for each mode of the game but I never tried to complete it in one life. So I finally decided to record such playthrough and not only with my usual "No Death" challenge but also I played the game the hardest way: using only Zangetsu without recruiting or killing any of possible allies. With this restriction the game can surpass difficulty of even the toughest old school Castlevania games (especially once you reach the castle - those three levels are very long and insane).
Well, I hope you like this video. Thanks for watching and be sure to watch Ritual of the Night boss run once we finish it.

'Bout time this game received the Arek treatment.

I aplaud you for making it through the frog room before Gremory, that part is INFURIATING with no upgrades! I don't know how you were able to do it!

You no damaging stage 6 is insane. That’s the hardest stage in my opinion

[@AmineSamus]

This mode is hard af but also how I enjoy playing the game the most

[@highwind9984]

i love your playthrough, it feel so satifiying to see you play it so smoothly, possible to see you do another playthrough but with other characters? thanks

[@ArekTheDragon]

There is a possibility for Nightmare Mode playthrough using all characters without losing any of them once. But I will record it after I finish few immediate plans regarding boss runs and playthroughs.

Are you planning on doing this for curse of the moon 2?

[@lerey74]

too bad there is no success for this run
