That's the best Sprite work for a fan project I've seen, hector's animation looks so smooth
Glad to see more of Hector as the protaganist. I don't know but the netflix castlevania kind of did him dirty.
Yes! He was a total badass in the game they made him a little bit of a wimp in the show
“Little Bit” and “Kind Of” is hell of a understatement for that absolute insult
Hector was a complete punk in the show. An absolute disgrace of a man.
As someone that’s not bothered by a lot of Netflix Castlevania, (even if I agree some of the changes were stupid and unnecessary), I thought Hector’s portrayal and storyline was truly bad.
They might change it later on he hasn’t gotten his revenge
Honestly, it's very nice to see this.
Seeing a game with the same overall design as Symphony of the Night is great, and I must admit it touches on nostalgia.
Everyone is waiting for GTA 6 and Hollow Knight: Silksong, but what I want to see the most right now is a demo of your game :D
Happy holidays!
This is the Hector that we need, thank you for this project
This project is being awaited by many fans.
Just by watching it, the feeling of movement and combat seem very good to me. Keep up the good work!
This is so good! I hope we get to see more.
SOTN user interface and OOE stages, so cool 😊
Adding a mini-map in the normal gameplay is genius. And making equip items have a special effects is another level of genius. 👌
Brooo, this looks so amazing!!! I know its nowhere near complete but it looks insane!!
I'm always glad when Héctor gets in the Spotlight among the Castlevania fandom, dude this proyect of yours is looking fantástic keep up with it i'd like to play it, and if i can help you with anything just say it.
A work of art ! SOTN elements with Curse of Darkness, i couldn't be more excited ❤ amazing job !!!!
Kogi Igarashi said once,the blue background menu in SOTN was a undone job,because they hadn't much time enough to make a more krafted menu,but even so this menu become a trade mark of SOTN,and is a good idea bring It to this fan made,as well as another sprites of SOTN that still is one of the most beaultiful games made in pixel art already done.
This is probably as close to Symphony of the Night's gameplay that I've ever seen. The zombies, skeletons, and bats appear and move exactly as they do in SotN. I'm extremely excited to play this.
It’s because it’s using some of the same sprites and animations from SOTN. Looks great though
This looks amazing. That save room setup is by far the coolest to me
Double ups bro! This is looking sweet! Keep up the amazing work.
Love how smooth the combat goes. Especially how you can move or jump right away after the backdash and still retain some momentum from it.
This combat is already shaping up to be something wicked. Looking forward to more, no matter how big or small.
wow the sprite is really clean. i really like the guard from the ps2. keep up the good work.
I like that Hector has the same running animation as in curse of darkness.
What a wonderful way to start a new year, if not a good Fangame, this that has barely started the project and seemed very well developed, I expect great things from this project! I'm dying to play hahaha! finally someone who also has a lot of affection for the Castlevania franchise.
AMAZING ! HECTOR IS BACK BABY !
Bro lowkey COOKED 🔥🔥🔥 KEEP IT UP 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Wow, this is so amazing!
- OZ - Sword of Etheria boss room :D
Awsome job man keep up the good work! Love what you did so far!
Amazing work man, can't wait! 🤩
I like that Hector's sprite is very faithful to the ps2 movement, but IMO, he should have a slowed down movement, like the 2d Sprites (Shanoa and Alucard come to mind) with some more movement frames, as to seem less stiff. Great work, nonethelesz
Excited to play this! As a big Curse of Darkness fan, I'm happy Hector being recognized as a great protagonist (the Netflix version of him is super sad). I'm wondering if we will see innocent devils in a form of familiars, that would be great!
DAAANG Hector's sprite work is CLEAN! I'd kill to see Isaac in your style!
From what I've heard There were supposedly some Isaac sprites at some point but it got lost along with Donoffrio's other sheets.
that's unfortunate, donoffrio's spritesheets are a blessing
You took the words right out of my mouth.
@@gian2074 The ones made by Donoffrio Are still there. Like his walk and sword boomerang and Devil forging. I recreated some frames using his hector as a base at one point.
@@gian2074 Hi, I like your game. Could you upload the extended version of the soundtrack please?
I am already fall in love with this game, keep the good works bro👍👍👍
Holy fucking shit, this is looking gorgeous. Keep it up.
my eyes
Always exciting to see what you're working on, this being by far no exception. Can't wait to see where this all goes, looks strong for just the "start" of a project, aside from the weird vibe I get from that wide posture Hector stands in. lmao
Love the chair for the game save! Project is looking great - good luck and looking forward to it!
Thank you for your hard work I'm about to cry ❤❤❤
I absolutely adore this. This really looks amazing. I really am looking forward to seeing the full product and being able to play It. I'm very great at castlevania games And this one looks very promising
Great job, Dude! The animation is smooth as fuck, and our boy Hector deserves this love letter.
that's sick bro, i 'm so exited about this project!!!
Oh, a new video? Looks like some progress has been made since the last one! ❤ Awesome! That ice spell looks great and the mechanic fits the game well! Keep it up!
I really appreciate the fact that there's a puzzle with a 451 solution. That's some respect for gaming history right there.
This looks amazing... thank you for your continuing efforts... let's keep the Castlevania Legacy alive and more importantly let's make it a bigger game... the story is so vast you can almost do anything with it... please incorporate the HP walking armor that would be fantastic and one of my personal favorites... but can we have a HP suit of armor therefore the more pieces of armor you wear with it gives you a higher ability of HP recovered
Of all the Castlevania fan games I've seen, this is definitely the smoothest-looking by far. A lot of the fan games have an issue of jarring animation and physics, and this one seems to nail it just right.
This is amazing keep it up man
It's looking damn good. Keep up the good work!
This and the older videos inspired me to try Godot too. Love this!
This is amazing… great work🔥
So happy to see you still working on Castlevania fanwork! You're gonna be the next big indie dev, I can see it
Great work dude !
Demasiado bueno ,,espero más noticias sobre este proyecto pronto
This is looking gorgeous! Greetings from Brazil
That's a code I never expected to see in a Castlevania game. Well played.
Curse of Darkness is one of my favorite Castlevania would love to play this game one it's finished ! Good luck for that.
finally castlevania gets a guard move... ive been wanting this for sooo long... the guard makes this a must play for me
looks great thanks to you we have great new castlevania games
Fkn stellar! Definitely gonna need me a copy of this when it's done.
This is wonderful, also glad hector gets some love.
Happened upon this video in my feed. Very cool to see another game with Hector as the MC.
Android? YAY! Im hyped for this looks so well done! And it might play good on my Logitech G Cloud! Keep it up! and I LOVE that there are NO combos and its more on line with the classics!
This is great. Hoping this finish soon. Can't wait for the release 😁👍🏻💯
😱shocked how good this looks!
Que belleza 😍 ya quiero que salga 🤤🤤🤤
oh my! it looks great! can´t wait to play it
Amazing work!!!
Gonna wait for the release, what a masterpiece
Okay. Barely a minute in, and this really looks neat.
Looks awesome! I hope it would be released one day.
the save rooms are beautiful!
Espero que salga pronto, tiene una pinta increíble. Aquí un fan de hace muchos años, que jugó a todos los Castlevania 🤟🤟🤟. Un saludo a todos!!
Wow it looks really nice :o
nice work bro......I loved the music
Excellent Hector sprite. I also like is attack animation. Walking and jumping looks sightly off to me but maybe I am just imagining things.
Using chairs as save rooms is a really funny reference.
Is the text pop up sound from Luigi's Mansion?
The gameplay looks also very good.
The text popup sfx is from Dracula X Chronicles, when you unlock music tracks or SotN/Rondo
@gian2074
Ah. Sounds a lot like the sound from the Luigi's Mansion menue. Maybe same stock sound effect.
Looks perfect, I hope play the full game some day ❤
Looks great! A couple of suggestions, if you would listen to them:
-The text of the scroll would benefit greatly from rewording it. If it's meant to be a puzzle, the text should be only a hint and not outright give the solution. Maybe it could read "Foes in tall room... ...gravestones" and the stones could have an engraving of the enemy.
-Some of the particle/lightning effects for some of the enemies' attacks don't seem to fit the overall aesthetic and stand out in a not too flattering way.
-Blocking should not be a thing in a 2D-vania, because it would make it too easy. At most you could have a parry.
-Save rooms are too big. I get it's a direct reference to the PS2 games, but in a 2D-vania saving should be fast and convenient. Even in the PS2 games saving was a chore because of the big rooms.
I wish you success in your project, you have talent and passion for the series. I'm sure the finished product will be worthy of praise and you could even become an indie developer with your own stories!
I mean, technically, equip-able Shields existed in SotN. :P
What about a compromise for blocking? If it's not too complex [or time-consuming] to program, then make the _success_ of blocking dependent more on Hector's CON stat [less on DEF] versus an enemy's total ATK. I'm no programming expert, but I think it could work on paper similarly to how CON affected things in SotN.
^
At best, blocking could just reduce damage [similar to Jonathan's "Stonewall" stance skill] most times, requiring Hector's CON stat to be *_very_* high relative to an enemy's ATK to negate damage altogether.
The way it is rn guarding an attack causes chip damage based on how strong the blocked attack is compared to Hector's DEF and max HP, but honestly having it rely on CON might be a better play here.
I could also make it so stronger attacks break your guard more easily too
A game being east is not a good or bad thing. Maybe they want the game to be easier?
I don't want it to be easy in general, but this is the first stage of the game so I think being brutal with stuff would not be a very good idea.
My idea was it being medium-easy in the beginning, then always increasing difficulty, just to give the player the time to adjust to the controls and moveset
Yep if the guard can break or can just minimize damage on some stronger attacks that'd be great.
You're in the right direction, I just hope you don't sway too far from your initial vision - but also weigh in some good suggestions from others.
Cheers! This is gonna be great ❤
I was just wondering when this game came out!!!! Beautiful fan made game!
Looks OSOM bro!!!
But brother the theme is excellent! I already want to play it when it's finished.
I love it👏, I'm waiting for it to be released on Android ^^
Esta quedando increíble tienes mucho talento sería genial para mí jugar esta increíble obra de arte
Looking forward to this. I hope it gets completed
looking forward to this!
Looks amazing
Awesome, really like it
Love it, can't wait for it to be released
I’m loving this
SO COOL!
The graphics and animations are very good, but I don't know why but it seems like the map needs something more. I would understand if this were a Clock tower map, but I don't know why I feel like it doesn't look like a cathedral map. I think it must be because castlevania games have accustomed us to huge stairs and staircase-shaped platforms, as in Aria of Sorrow, Sotn and Circle of Moon
But keep up the excellent work, you are heading in the right direction, I wish you much success my friend.

Great game! Definitely I will wait for more!
Wow, Hector looks amazing!! The end animation of the sword swing looks a bit unnatural (he swings the weapon too far behind him), but either way this looks incredible.
Saludos, cada vez que veo sus avances recuerdo a mi 3D Cv fan-game (multijugador cooperativo):
Kastlevania Antiphone of the Hope, el cual es mi fusión de Cv LoI, Cv III, y Cv CoD
This looks stupendous
ojala no sea otro mod pero se hermoso y me dio mucha nostalgia, tiene de todos los castlevania mas exitosos, un sub por aqui
Hector is like a second version of Leon Belmont, he blocks attacks with his arm just like him 😁.
I'm just waiting to play it looks very nice and smooth , the graphics from Symphony of the Night and sound is nice as well. Good luck. We gonna play a new Castlevania 😁
looks great!
Gj guys plz add tons of weapons , items and enemies. Also secret rooms. Love those.
This is art
It looks amazing 😲!!!
Now I'm excited to try it.
i can say the BG music is so damn good!
