Castlevania: A Thread for the Dead

[talonmalon333]

What was the first Castlevania game you guys played?

[Dr. Ensatsu-ken]

Super Castlevania IV

[Foggle]

The original.

[Spark Of Spirit]

Castlevania NES. So hard.

In other news, this is happening today:

[Spark Of Spirit]

Iga's new project!

Koji Igarashi, the namesake of "Igavania"-style games, is leading the project, with Michiru Yamane composing the music and Inti Creates leading the development.

Now that's a team.



Yep, looks like Metroidvania!

I'd back, but I'd prefer to have this on a Nintendo system. That's where most of his games were made famous, anyway,and I'd like to keep them all on the same one. Oh well, I'll wait for more stretch goals.

Whoa, a female protagonist! Guess he got over that whole "people can't take Legends seriously because you play as a woman" thing.

Looks good. Much more pumped for Yooka-Laylee, but I'll try to back this one, too! Too bad there's no Wii U version.

$850,000 must be reached for dat David Hayter...

I was under the impression that it was one of people's favorite Castlevania games. (It was also the last Metroidvania he made)

We'll see how this shapes up, anyway. It's already more than halfway there.

Haven't played that one. Dalek told me he retconned Legends out of the canon because "people wouldn't take a female character seriously." I remember seeing some proof that I sadly cannot find again. Doesn't really matter, though.

[Spark Of Spirit]

Not really considering LoS have their own timeline now, too. At this point you can just make whatever canon you want since the series is over.

By the way, it's already almost funded. Just 25K more.

[Foggle]

I personally think, even if he did say something like that, Iga was probably just trying to find reasons to get rid of Legends from canon without insulting the development team's work. Considering his first independent game stars a woman and all.
I love how quickly these games get funded. Based Kickstarter.

[Spark Of Spirit]

Did I say 25K? Because it's 10K now.

EDIT: And funded. That was fast. It shouldn't be too long until David Hayter is reached.

Iga's new project!

I think the first one I played was 1. Maybe 3. I forget.

I'm more excited about this than Yooka-Laylee.

[Spark Of Spirit]

And David Hayter is in.

Since the retail version of Yooka-Laylee will still require Steam (wtf), I dropped it down a few tiers, and now I can also back Igavania! Yay!

Be sure to watch the pitch video if you haven't. It's amazing.
