Richter was at least obviously born in Germany. Where at in Germany, I'm not sure. But it's obvious from a few sources: 1) The intro to Rondo is in German. 2) Richter's name is High German for "judge". 3) Maria's last name is German for "fox".

Yes, and no. I've taken liberties with the Van Helsing lineage somewhat. According to Van Helsing lore, Abraham had a son who died as a child. I thought it would be interesting, if the child did not die, but was hidden by the Church in order to become the next generation of vampire hunter due to Abraham's sour relationship with the Church. When you play Helsing's plot in the game, the version of Dracula that he faces is based on the Bram Stoker's version not the Castlevanian version that you face in Richter's timeline.

By the way, about the German comment, my wife is full blooded German so got that covered...lol I still need that birthplace...

I liked that movie, ha! It was even cooler that it was based of the world of Castlevania. It's probably the closest that we are going to get to a Castlevania movie. Anyways back to the subject at hand, glad thta you like the split universe deal. Right off the back you can choose between the two characters for 2 completely different experience yet or you can play 2 player simulataneous mode. I am still trying to tie in the plot storywise to fit in the Castlevania and Contra universes. The plot is loosely based on The Tomb of Dracula 1-6.

All this talk of Van Helsing made me download it. I watched it. The ending sucked, I thought. So many problems with time continuity if you know the sources. But still, it was a very fun film and the Castlevania references were fun to spot too. I usually can't stand cheesy/corny Hollywood puns in movies, but I thought Van Helsing's jokes were very funny. I await the day when CG becomes 100x more flawless than that, though.

Ha no doubt. I thought it was a fun movie, but we probably will never get a great Castlevania movie unfortunately. I don't think it's mainstream enough, but one can hope...

To chime in a bit on what Darkman said about mixing the story's (and without giving away too much) Richter's story will wrap around his disappearance 4 years after Rondo and his reappearance as "lord of the castle" and events that lead up to him ending up that way.  Im sure you guys will dig it  8)
But enough talk, HAVE AT YOU!!!!!!!!

This is the start of the Title Screen. The extra special effects, sound effects, and such haven't been implemented yet, but you can see where it's going. I made the logo and intro effects in photoshop frame by frame....lol

I also forgot to compliment your work on the desert stage. Though not complete as you stated, it was very well done. This game will be a blast to play!

By the way, are Warmachine and I the only one's using Multimedia Fusion 2 on the forum? I an just wondering because everyone here talks about GameMaker and I don't really understand why people don't switch over. I know it's my personal preference. I was just wondering if anyone else is using MMF2 to make a game in the forums...

Cuz they're waiting to steal my amateur code.  8)

I haven't even looked into Multimedia Fusion, so... maybe it's the same excuse : we're too lazy to do our research.

I PREFER GM because of it's implementation of GML for scripting. I studied C++ in college and GML is very similar so it's just easier for me is all. The fact I'm waiting around to steal Theou's code is merely coincidental, I assure you.  ;)
