Kid Dracula is currently the most oversized sprite in the mix. Perhaps that could be adjusted?

Sooo...why don't we have a CV Dungeon clan already? I saw it mentioned before. Do we need to petition? Twitter spam?
That's a pretty good idea. I'd be down for either.

Maybe "Dungeon Clan"? Don't think IGA can use the C word now.
AFAIK, Konami doesn't have any rights to the Dungeon. Even if it did, it probably wouldn't care.

Imagine the irony if Konami were to announce a new 2D Castlevania at E3 this year.

I somehow would be less excited about that than Bloodstained. The Castlevania name suddenly seems so....irrelevant.

I think the chance of Konami actually doing this is 1/100000000 but IF it happened one can only hope they handed the development to anyone but MercurySteam. I would still welcome WayForward or, even better, Yacht Club Castlevania in 2D. Though it would most likely be a mobile game anyway.

Maybe Konami is looking at IGA's game and trying to learn. But after LoS2's low sales and the recent events with Kojima/NY Exchange, I don't know what we can expect. Maybe it's time Dracula goes sleeping 100 years?

I think they're more likely to look at the actual number of backers, if anything. And 34 000 backers are probably not gonna make them change their minds. These companies wants AAA or go home. Or, in Konami's case - cheap mobile games that can make them a lot of money.

EDIT: Unless Bloodstained actually SELLS a lot of copies once it's released. But there are already 34 000 hardcore fans who are not gonna buy a copy, cause they already bought it (at least the +28$ backers). That leaves us with the rest of the gaming community. How many will pick this up, retail and download? Time will tell...

The chances of a new Castlevania being revealed at E3 are about as high as The Last Guardian being re-revealed for the PS4 and released later this year.

Pay a little extra for the digital version and you will not have to wait.

I think the chances of seeing TLG at E3 this year is actually bigger than ever. Or possibly TGS. That doesn't mean the chances are big at all, but if the game is indeed still in development, they have now had plenty of time to do something for the PS4. Last year was probably too early, but this year? I think it could happen. People are really treating TLG like it's some kind of impossible joke that could not possibly ever happen. I find that funny, especially since we've seen arguably bigger things, like FFXV, resurface after years.

Besides, what is Team ICO even doing if not working on at least something?

I already backed with 2100$ now, but the digital version is going to be PC for the beta..and the Physical for PS4. and when the game release day 1 on PSN I'm going to download it from there ( I prefer playing it on PS4 for trophies and all that )

Yo, yo.

Pretty excited to see Kojima's take on the cast for the cover. Hope it's something like this: http://castlevania.neo-romance.net/cv/aria_artbook/artbook12.jpg

Really looking forward to seeing Ayami's cover sleeve, it's really awesome of her to make time to help out with IGA's project too. Sounds like IGA was very close friends with his staff. :)
