General Castlevania Discussion / Re: Castlevania: Belmont's Curse!!!

« Last post by Inccubus on September 05, 2026, 03:11:49 AM »

I'm on the pessimistic side of the fence.

While I like Dead Cells, that is one thing and Castlevania is another.
Consequently, looking at the game play does not give me the impression of likely feeling like any flavor Castlevania.

I detest the Netflix show with a passion, and this game seems to be sucking on that teat.
When I heard that this was from the makers of Dead Cells, I thought at least it would have nice pixel graphics, but instead it turned out to be flat, cliched slop.

Music is not bad, but I don't need the game to enjoy the music.

So yeah, unimpressed and unenthusiastic about it.

PS- You'd think a game titled Belmont's Curse would be taking place after Symphony of the Night, not 250 years earlier.

Never thought to look for a discord.  I don't use that or any other social media guff.  Yeah life's alright.

Thanks for commenting!

It's good to know you are excited for what we are working on! 😁

It's nice to be doing a classicvania after the open world beast that was Chronicles of the Wolf!

We are here, but many of us are not that active.
Have you tried the Discord server for ICVD?  That's active on the daily.

Also, good to hear from you, Loki.
I hope that things are well, with you.

I spotted your registration on the forums and though "I know that login handle!".

It plays well, but man, I hate to be a negative nancy, the music is SOOOOO forgettable. I'm not asking for Michiru Yamane or Yuzo Koshiro or Carlos Viola but absolutely nothing about the tracks so far stand out to me. The monochrome backgrounds also make it pretty hard to see the enemies IMO.

Still, like I said, at least it plays quite smoothly.

See the new trailer, it's better than we thought.

Yeah it was a bit too easy , the mainstream players hate challenging games...But the intense ad immersive atmosphere makes up for it. And some moments remain quite hard.
Great game, old school controls and pixel art, superb music, a lot of nods to certain movies, and games.
Extra things to do after the ending, multiple endings. The Master weirdly looks like a well known real life luciferian...
