As a backer, I must say this is absolutely fantastic
As a backer, I must say this is absolutely fantastic. Like, better than many actual Kickstarter and even actual Castlevania games. Just make sure you're aware, this is NOT a metroidvania. This is more of a traditional style action platformer, like Castlevania I, III, and IV. I'll not say more than that, as I don't wanna spoil anything for anyone. If you didn't back it, just buy it. It's WELL worth the $10. Castlevania is back baby! I mean, Bloodstained is effing amazing baby!

One of my best buys this year
Essentially Castlevania without any Castlevania, but feels like Castlevania and made by the same guy who created Castlevania, but was made to be Legally distinct from Castlevania, because the company that owns Castlevania doesn't want anyone to use Castlevania, because they want to make Castlevania themed slot machines in order to profit off of the IP of Castlevania. Scratches that NES action Platformer itch that Konami wants us to ignore...
