Entries:

theplottwist's Merman's Delight 1st Place
A popular drink in the underworld. The Merman blood mixed in gives it a bittersweet, acidic taste. The decorative eye is not really a Merman's, though.


Dracula9's Blood Dreg Keg 1st Place
A cask filled with the leftover blood from vampiric meals within the castle. Often given to the lowest-ranking creatures as a form of gift from their ever-generous master. This frequently leads to rather...interesting situations.

FanOfDracula's Coke 3rd Place
the favorite drink of dracula, for that time of leisure, waiting and without more to do, with a delicious flavor, dracula takes and love a refreshing coke, the spark of life jajaja

Shiroi Koumori's Caramel Frap 3rd Place
Even that ubiquitous coffee chain has a branch in Castlevania.


Partial Blooverine's Water
A cup of water, or rather, a poor drawing of some water with ice(?) upon closer inspection. You'd like to pretend that the coaster has pretty doily patterns in it.

Let's start simple:

It is precisely because it never cared, that people do care.  It's something which it's lacking, because that which it has, it has lackluster of.

Edit:  How do they make the sprites appear in another way? I get a small key to the side and you have to click to see them in big... why? xD

Upload it to imgur, copy the image's url (the IMAGE's url, not the page's url), and paste it here like so:

Code: [Select]

Except that instead of the URL to my image, it's yours.

Thanks dudes!

I have a suggestion: There is one kind of enemy based on horror movies lacking on the Castlevania series: aliens. So, my suggestion is to design an alien enemy sprite.

It can be any style: 8-bit, 16-bit, look like it came from one of the Gameboy games. No matter. It just has to be an alien in a convincing Castlevania style.
