Topic: Castlevania Hell's Lullaby

[Simsure]

Hello, some times ago i made a small Castlevania fan game for a jam, the theme was "retro gaming" so i took the original style of NES-vania and made a modern version out of it.
Set years later the events of Castlevania 3 - Dracula's Curse, embark in this adventure alone or with a friend in local multiplayer impersonating Trevor Belmont or his son Evan Belmont.

Let me know if you like the game, find any bug, and if i was successful in catching the feels of a classic-vania game <3

You can download the game from here:

Ouch! Simultaneous multi-player style in a CV game might even be more painful then Contra

Thank you for playing.
I know about the zoom, but i really wanted to recreate the NES view size on a screen.

I used a simple sin() movement for the hearts, tweaking some values should make them more like in the original games, but i don't see it as much of a problem.
