If you like those "What's your Favorite Castlevania" topics, there is a whole new SubForum just for those threads. Check out Classic Castlevania Threads.
Newcomer topics welcome in this subforum.
Actually it’s quite the opposite unfortunately. Konami will never just say “here you guys have at it” especially to amateur developers. MercurySteam is an established company so they got to do it, but fan made projects such as this have little to no chance.
Granted they are more lenient to the IP than Nintendo whom are infamous in shutting down fan projects left & right, but there have been dozens of CV fan hacks over the years and not once has Konami took notice & offered them a job.

This looks great, have you guys tried to get in touch with Konami? If you can showcase a playable demo that actually looks like that I think it wouldn't be unlikely for them to give you rights over the IP. This looks way better than any Castlevania related content we've had so far from smaller developers. Either way keeping an eye open for this project, take your time with it!
This is literally from February. Not past year, not 2022. February 2024. QUITE A BIT more than "just a crumb" or just "an acknowledgement the project is still alive."

You've been asking for updates like we've been missing for years. This is just flat out not what is happening and YOUR dramatic response makes it look like it's been years of silence. I responded you in kind, that's all.
