Hmmmm. Gameplay is similar to all the other ones, but here are a couple problems: -- If you go to the subscreen after killing enemies, upon exiting the subscreen you may find yourself on top of an enemy. -- Whip has a poor vertical range that creates several unrealistic situations: You can't whip frogs unless they are jumping slowly toward you; the hand can get between the two levels (crouching and not crouching) so that you can't hit him, although you can hit everything around him, etc....

I agree about the controls (usually arrow keys are played with the right hand on PC games) but you can change them with Ctrl-Y; of course you can't change the button 3 & 4 controls. Does button 4 instantly kill you? I hit it on the subscreen and got "Game Over" (!) wasn't sure if that was coincidence or a NES-style "instakill" for puzzle-logic design errors (inescapable traps that don't kill you) :)

I can't find the save features. Can you actually save your game? I can't access the menu either. I tried every button I could think of, and even just went through the rows on the keyboard. You should spend some time applying logic to these button schemes. This is just ridiculous. I've tried to play four times, I still have no idea IF cutscenes can be skipped or what button skips them. Other than the awful button setup, its a very nice looking game.

Nice, if only u could add more color depth into the game. The gameplay is smooth, & I think its kool how it has that RPG kind of leveling up to make it fair as u go through stronger partys on the game.

good game. great grapics, its like the good old days. I found another bug though. When you are walking and want to talk to someone, the screen tends to continue without you. Good game

Shadow : you can only save in villages ( at church ) Also it's seems that you can't enter the subscreen in the Introduction Stage . You can enter it after reaching the forest . Exellent Game :) I Found the first subweapon DAGGER You must use it on the bridge in mountains...

Why you always rape these good old games, why?

Posted by MIG2

19th June, 2004

Hello guys !!! Shadow : Trevis is right you cant enter the subscreen during the Intro-stage . You will be in the "real game area" after killing the first boss. then use " space " or "button 3 joypad" . It's Also right you can only save in village Churchs and Castlevania's sanctuary rooms later. The button setup : Yes i usually put the buttons on right hand because i'm used to play with a joypad. But you can change them : CNTRL+Y The cutscenes cannot be skipped but there are only 2 in the game and they last about 15 secondes. Pkeod Yes i made the game in 2000-2001 with TGF ( so before LOST vALLEY and LAST DEFENDER ). Harvy is absolutly right i forgot to say it but pressing button 3 in subscreen is an emergency Game over. that will allow you to save and not lose youre progress if you are definitivly trapped (very rare event). Remnance : Precize -What are you exactly seeing and what you tried to do ?

Janne Making a fan game is not a rape but an homage .

Posted by Zephyr

19th June, 2004

Very good. I'd like to see a fan game like this but like the newer Castlevanias, I've always like collecting weapons and using swords and stuff more than the whip.

Posted by Shadow99

19th June, 2004

I agree with Mig on the rape/homage issue. A GOOD fan game is a homage and the original is memorialized by it. A bad fan game however, well, go fall on a rusty rake. This, of course, falls into the homage category. Very well done. The controls still suck however.

Posted by Davide Mascolo

19th June, 2004

Just change the controls to CTRL for jumping and Shift for the whip, and you'll be fine. I played this game over a year ago and, despite bugs here and there, the subscreen problem (be sure to be on a spot without enemies before opening it!) and some game design flaws, I liked it so much that I played it for at least a couple of weeks, with a total of about 18 hours of game play. It's huge, there are dozens of bosses and it's very hard: be prepared!

Posted by Shadow99

19th June, 2004

Um, there are some serious bugs with this game. Beta testers need to be FIRED. After saving my game at the church and becoming aquainted with the menu, I noticed a strange thing happening. I went to the menu to see that I had the purple "vampire killer" equipped (the whip I had just heard about from a merchant even though I only had $20 in pocket and could not buy it). After returning to the menu, I then had some sort of bizarre whip I had never heard of. THEN upon my third trip to the menu I had a leather whip (or whatever the default whip is). HOWEVER I had no whip when trying to attack. I would just swing my arm out as though to beat the skeletons to death with my fist. I could never get a whip equipped again. I then unpaused the game to see an enemy had spawned inside of me. Game over. I agree.

20th June, 2004

Nevermind, I figured it out. You have many very nice in-game cheats that you left in the game. I set my controls so that Z and X are buttons 1 and 2. And the X button is the cheat to upgrade your whip. You have to be careful however, since upgrading too high will leave you without a whip at all! Pressing X upgrades your whip. Pressing C gives you 1,000 exp points. Pressing V gives you heal items. Pressing W gives you all of the special items such as dagger, boots, etc. Press and hold I to get infinite exp to 99999. I'll have this game beat in NO time. ;) NOTE: you HAVE to be in the submenu when you use these cheat keys. Don't upgrade past the morning star or you'll be left without a whip!

Help me !!! That Giant bat in the cemetery seems to be invincible .What can i do ?

Posted by Hill Gigas

20th June, 2004

Hmmm, I think there are too many cheat codes in this game for its own good. If I swing my whip in the santuary I get magically teleported to an ice level where I die from freezing. I also stumbled into all of the cheats mentioned above. :)

Posted by MIG2

20th June, 2004

Oh what a big mistake i forgot to remove the debug keys :( :( :( :( Shadow found them "by chance" . Use them if you want but that will kill the game. Mr "return of" ;) That is more a bug than a cheat ;) What must i do ? re-upload the cheat-less game ? Andrew you need the axe it's the only weapon wich can hurt the Giant Bat .You must Kill MEDUSA in Deborah Cave ( South West part of the map )in order to get the Axe.

Posted by Hill Gigas

20th June, 2004

I would say so. It was a very frightening experience. One minute I'm in the safety of the sanctuary, then suddenly I'm being attacked by a 20ft frozen corpse hanging from ropes while his invisible minions pummel me and I freeze to death. 0_0 I'm going to need therapy.

Posted by Hill Gigas

20th June, 2004

By the way, I don't think you should remove the cheats. It's a good way to let people see the levels and bosses that you've made. Most people will give up sooner than they should due to the difficulty. I'll probably never see 90% of Lost Valley because it's so massive. Leave the cheats so people can appreciate your work. Real fans will play legit. :)

28th June, 2004

Hmm... The game doesn't revert to the saved Exp and Gold when you restore the game after dying. There's a noticable delay of a couple seconds before the save screen takes input. Bosses can suddenly appear over you for cheap hits. Belmont crouches while jumping (to make Trevor look like an idiot, hold down Fire1 and either left or right). Slightly modified default platform movement is used. It kinda looks hokey when the bride just disapppears when touched by the sniper (I think that was the monster's name from SotN).

Great game, but I'm stuck. I have the Bekerley Key, Silver Whistle, Stone Breaker, Swamp Boots, "Ancian" Book. Now where do I go next? I can visit the ruins, beat the bat and find "Room 2" with the switch, but that's all. Do I need to go somewhere else before?

Posted by MIG2

6th July, 2004

Steven ;; No you don't need anything more . The switch opens a door wich lead to a dead end !!! Use the JUMP BOOTS and find an hidden way on the top of the dead end's wall . Use also the Jump Boots for the last room. Don't Panic that place ( South Ruins )has the harder secrets of the game. The Followings are easier.. ;)

Posted by MIG2

18th July, 2004

Did you went to Guard Tower ? If not the road of the maze is on the fountain after the 2 cerberus . Did you destroyed the Hell Dancers and get the Spike Armor ? If yes you must get out of Castlevania and go to NORTH RUINS to get the mirror of truth. Then with the MIRROR go to Castlevania , Wing of Science . At the place with a big Painting , there you will fight the boss.

19th July, 2004

I'm stuck again too. I now have access to the catacombs where I can pull a lever, but what does it do?

Posted by MIG2

20th July, 2004

the lever opens a door on the ceiling near the place you're in.there you will fight 2 lesser demons .then another lever will open another door .

Posted by Steven McBride

23rd July, 2004

I defeated the Beholder. I got access to the chapel, I found the hidden door, I used the teleporter. And now I can't pull that switch. Is this a bug or did I miss something?

25th July, 2004

Good game, excellent work Mig2! Sadly I'm totally stuck now... got the holy water and can now access the art gallery place in the southwest, but all I seem to be able to do there is get myself trapped in a room after jumping up on a series of paintings, doesn't seem to be anything I can do in there! Am I missing something? Have re-explored the other areas and can't find anywhere else to go - blocked by thorns in North Ruins and haven't yet got Castlevania key - help!

Posted by MIG2

28th July, 2004

Steven : When you beat the Beholder that opens the way of STORAGE FLOOR : The entrance is in Lost Garden . Do you see where is the exit of Clock tower ? then go down and continue right . You will reach STORAGE FLOOR . Joe : ???????? when you reach the upper level of "art gallery" you must fight a monster " LIVING ARMOR " it will give you the key of CASTLEVANIA. the monster appears after reaching the middle of the room. If that not works its a bug so i will send you a save file with yours actual skills and the CASTLEVANIA KEY ;)

Posted by Joe Williams

28th July, 2004

OK I thought this might be a bug because it looked like a place where a boss should appear. Don't worry about the sending the save file, I just worked out how to edit it myself to get the key ;-) (hopefully the game won't break now...)

Posted by Steven McBride

29th July, 2004

Well, I can access the Storage Rooms/Floor, but have no clue what to do in there. If I go down the steps, I get to a closed trap door and the floor below is a dead end. If I enter the Olrox Room I get to a dead end too.

Joe dont worry you're hurting the dragon . The dragon has a life greater than the max gaugemeter. the gauge will decrease when the dragon's life will be below 300 hp . Hang-on that is the very last battle ;)

I love the game, but the bugs ruin the game play and volume of the playing the game, but I'm adpated to X and C basic keyboard for attack and jump, do you have a bugless version done and ready for downloading. Plus which gaming system did you use to make the game?

Posted by Eric Lehto

3rd March, 2005

Maybe a walkthrough for the game would come in handy, It's not actually the same as Simon's Quest, I'm at the first mansion and it's harder than pot, I'm at level 4 and vampire killer, why is the price so high on the weapon, If I were making the game I would at least make them within range of when to get it, 100 for vampire, 500 chain, 1000, long chain and then 2000 for Morning Star, because of herbs and other things which cost money..the weapon are just too much money. The other thing, Too bad someone doesn't make a new game like the new Castlevia's, SOTN or Gba newest games. Those would be awsome.
