Castlevania has been a spotlight for us on IndieRetroNews, particularly with numerous clones being launched and my private favourite of Castlevania Spectral Interlude on the ZX Spectrum. Properly, one recreation that is getting one other point out nevertheless, is Dante Retro Dev’s superior Scorpion Engine developed recreation of Castlevania AGA. A reimagined port of the 1986 authentic however with visuals impressed by Castlevania Chronicles and different non-8 bit titles within the collection. So why is that this recreation getting one other point out? Properly, due to Pal giving me the heads up, now you can obtain a giant overhaul of the sport in celebration of Commodore Amiga’s fortieth anniversary!
Here is what the developer says concerning the recreation “A reimagined port of the 1986 authentic however with visuals impressed by Castlevania Chronicles and different non-8 bit titles within the collection. The aim was to supply a playable and pure model of the unique Castlevania however with an Amiga taste. Not a port of the Sharp X68000 or PlayStation “Castlevania Chronicles” recreation, it solely occurs to make use of many stage tiles and sprites from that recreation as a result of it is a sensible rendition of how OG Castlevania would look in 16-bit or 32-bit”.
And here is the main points concerning the newest replace. “Following the Commodore Amiga’s fortieth anniversary, a giant overhaul with options like higher shade use, AGA gradients, animated backdrops, calibrated bounce physics, menu toggle for weapons launch methodology and new music tracks by IM76 and DJ Metune. Some examples are seen within the video hyperlink right here https://vimeo.com/1104181788?share=copy. Since this can be a pretty large replace, it is anticipated that it could fail in numerous {hardware} configurations or produce sudden outcomes. Identified points: could play the improper animation whereas on stairs, or get caught, specifically when you burn up/down. Want to make use of left/proper and deal with stairs as if they’re a terrain slope (which they’re, inner engine-wise)”.
