New mockup featuring a new resolution and other stuff.

wow,that mansion looks really cool.
good luck with the project.

Berkely Mansion is 30% complete, aka the bottom floor is all done, I am changing the maps around to ditch the flatness of the game, oh yeah I think I can say I'll be making the first Metroidvania with bottomless pit kills, Water wont kill you, but bottomless pits will, can't make the game too easy.

I'm assuming that some those bottomless pits are filled with water too?

Nope, he'll swim on the surface like soma in DOS, water killing you is too cheap, but I'm making something in the water that will kill you if you stay there too long.
Cool thing will be, the combat will be a bit of a challenge like OoE but you'll have the advantages of mobility and control like Super Castlevania IV and toping it with a revolver Subweapon selection which will allow you use the right weapon at the right time.

So, when remodeling the maps I have to keep in mind that the stage and enemies will be able to kill you, but essentially not in a broken fashion, so basically you'll pretty much die according to skill level with the game rather than cheap knockbacks.

Look into this. I'm trying to learn from these tutorials, and I think they are pretty good. Though I'm a bit lagging right now.

Thanks, I'll learn as much as I can
Update! Simon's new-old look!

[Claimh Solais]

Aw. I kinda liked that look he had with a coat on your DeviantArt.

[KaZudra]

I dunno, I'm very indecisive about Simon's appearance, I like my coated version too but I feel like its draw too far away from the classic, its a constant conflict...

[Claimh Solais]

Well, there's always the option to enable an unlockable costume. I always liked that option, and for some reason always felt it was an awesome secret.

But it's all up to you. I actually really do like the current one you made.

Bring back Simon's blond hair  Or if you want to be sprite-accurate like the original CV2 then go with black.

[Claimh Solais]

Yeah, he looks like Trevor with his current hair color.

[KaZudra]

I got it!, this'll be cool yet a bit to program, Like Mgs3 at the menu when atrting a new game It'll ask

"Which was your Favotite Castlevania Game"
Super Castlevania IV - Simon will have brown hair
Castlevania Chronicles - Simon will have red hair
Original Castlevania - Sinom will have blonde hair

As for the coated Simon, he'll be an unlockable character which will be slightly different than original Simon in the game

[Claimh Solais]

Ooh. Props for replay value.

I agree. Everyone will have their favorite pick of the litter
