it doesn't support gamepads? why?

We are working on a new system for gamepad support and we simply didn't finish it in time for Halloween. The original demo from a year ago had gamepad support, and we plan to have the feature back in the game soon.

These caves will be part of the upcoming Early Access demo!

Also, some footage of level 2. Experimenting with a SNES style version of the song we have been using:

i dig that snes style music

i really love the way the game looks, although i can't help but feel that there's a difference in quality in some of the artwork
the characters and most of the monsters are smooth, detailed, and accurately shaded. i think these guys are pretty much perfect
the environments and some other monsters, however, honestly feel lacking in comparison. the shading is flat, there isn't much detail, and the colors a bit boring.

to say the game looks bad would be a massive overstatement. but it does look a bit uhh,,, uneven.
UPON THE COMPLETION OF ITS STATEMENT, THE BLOOD MONKEY LEAPS TOWARDS YOU, BARING TEETH. IT IS TOO LATE FOR YOU.

I agree, although it would be helpful to point out some specific monsters or environments etc. A few examples of things that we are going to touch up are the wicked snake and ghost (both blend into the background and are hard to see). There are other aspects we are also going to rework, such as some of the death animations for some of the monsters. I think a game like Castlevania Bloodlines has really satisfying monster death anims/reactions, and we want to capture that level of detail ourselves. 

CN's development has always been shaped by feedback, so feel free to drop more suggestions or critiques.

Past the Borgo Ruins lies a secret path to an abandoned mansion, known as 'The Guest House'. Abandoned for years, yet nobody dares to enter. A friend from an older time awaits you there.

That image reminds me of CV Bloodlines. It has that genesis look to it. I think it works well.
