Yoooo Nick! Thanks for stopping by! I have a few videos on here with voiceovers (they were all done by request) but I've never tried the whole streaming thing before. Maybe one day if I figure out how to commit to something. I've been considering creating some more videos with voiceover to put on the channel but I keep getting distracted 1,000 different ways. We'll see what happens. For now, here are a couple of the latest ones I had voiceovers in. They were essentially live at the time (except for the beat I threw down in post for the Ninja Rap in the first one)... although anyone who watches these may not want me to stream 🙃 ruclips.net/video/-cnWBixQ0SI/видео.htmlsi=EDRmZuI6Imc1aUC6 ruclips.net/video/yc9ktG3hsdI/видео.htmlsi=Vj0WNULz_NaeMUI8

@ you should play and voice some donkey Kong country on the snes

@@breadrsps7795 Donkey Kong Crunchy! I remember playing that one at your place ages ago! That's a great game. I don't see why that couldn't be the next one.

@ would be cool to see!

Yes! That was a fun surprise! You just made my day. I will celebrate by eating some PEZ candies. 🙂

That's awesome 👌

Haha! That's hilarious. You can definitely hear him speak those words if you already have them in your mind when the clip plays! Thanks for watching!

You can't really see it since I'm jumping into the top of the screen, but the key is to jump to where your back is facing the pendulum you want to land on, that way you can do a midair backflip to extend your jump distance. You're almost at the end so hopefully that helps. Thanks for watching and good luck!

​@@subledger. Thanks for your reply I'm going to keep moving forward

Este é um jogo muito divertido! Obrigado por assistir!

Just saying that it looks, not that it really is

They might be. Pretty sure AI was used to get the voices into the game so I suppose it's possible. Thanks for watching!

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I liked it enough to give it a deathless playthrough so yeah I thought it was pretty awesome too. Thanks for watching!

Yeah there seems to be a pretty mixed opinion on how a lot of the character sprites look in these games. I know the developer is going back and adding more sprite options in his other games so maybe this one will get the same treatment. Thanks for watching!

Haha! This typo will live on forever! Thnaks for wathcing! 🤣

I'm glad someone actually liked Grant when they were growing up. I had a hard time with him as a kid and typically used Sypha/Syfa but come to find out Grant is actually a really fun character to play. He might have been my favorite to solo with come to think of it. It was fun to learn the little trick at 37:05 where you can avoid any risk at the falling block section. The Doppelganger fight is pretty silly (55:00) but that's also the case when soloing with Alucard. Thanks for watching!

Oh man this took so many tries, especially since I wanted to do it without using any continues. Can't tell you how many times I got all the way to Dracula (which takes about an hour) just to get destroyed and being forced to reset. It was a fun challenge though. I had no idea going into it that Dracula's second form was pretty much broken if you use only Alucard. A fun little thing to learn about the game I suppose. Thanks for watching!

I think I remember the developer mentioning that he wanted to do something a bit different with Trevor's appearance while still sticking to the theme of the game. Pretty cool choice if you ask me. Thanks for watching!

Haha! Yes! I can't help but to make the character dance to the music in these games. I'm glad someone enjoyed it. 🙂 Thanks for watching!

The developer made the game open source so we may at least see some remakes and maybe some ports. Who knows? Thanks for watching!

Es cierto. Parece que lleva la ropa de Drácula. ¡Gracias por mirar!

@@subledger. Jejeje si bro. Pero no puedo negar que es un pedazo de juego. Diría que el mejor de NES. Adelantado a su época.

@@berserkerespartan9754 De acuerdo. Me alegro de que tanta gente disfrute de este juego. ¡Tiene más de 30 años y sigue siendo muy divertido de jugar!

Thanks for watching and for leaving some comments. I'm glad to see there are some people who were interested in this "not so popular" run! The only way I can think of to make this more "legit" would be to avoid using Shir and passing up the Visiphone completely. It's definitely possible but would take way longer since each death would result in starting all the way back in town, and grinding for levels in the final dungeon may not be feasible since you'd have to walk all the way back to a town (through a dungeon) to save each time, and then walk all the way back.

This was really odd. My controller disconnected (a wireless Xbox One controller) so I replaced the batteries and the game glitched up and slowed down, and every time I hit the button it would resume its normal speed and then on the next button press it would slow down again. Then after the battle the game totally crashed. I was using the Genesis Plus GX core through RetroArch and the "Phantasy Star II (USA, Europe) (Rev A).md" rom file. Maybe this sort of issue has been patched in the core by now but I had never seen this happen before. Always something new going on but at least I got it recorded. It was well worth the time loss 🙂 Thanks for watching!

No worries man. I'm by no means an expert or a speedrunner of the game so there are probably lots of ways this playthrough could be improved. I really like this game and I'm glad somebody decided to check out the playthrough. Thanks for watching!

This was all done by one guy too! The way he handled the day/night transition was awesome and that whole "horrible night to have a curse" part got me too! I was really impressed with the music as well, which sounds like it was done in a professional studio. It also turns out that this game is currently getting a very major overhaul, which will address some of the common issues (such as the voices and bosses, as well as controls) and will add a ton of stuff like an experience system and new items. Not sure when it's coming out but I'm certainly looking forward to it. In the meantime, this same developer has also released two other "remakes" of Castlevania 3 and Castlevania: The Adventure. I enjoyed this game so much that I ended up doing a" leather whip only" run as well which can be seen here if anyone is interested: ruclips.net/video/OU09bCZPDjs/видео.htmlsi=e1l-5-UsAE7pokm2 Thanks for watching and for the thoughts on the game!

Haha! Yep! This one really beat me up before I was able to win, even after playing all of the numbered Mega Man games leading up to it. Thanks for watching!

I actually don't know. I looked through the soundtrack that the developer released and this song isn't in there at all. Unless someone who knows more about the Castlevania series than I do can identify it from another game, I'd say the best bet is to message the developer through his Discord server. If anyone knows the name of the song that plays during the final boss battle, feel free to chime in. Thanks for watching!

Maybe. I found this posted in the bugs section of the Discord server for the game: "Outside of Steam, the game was only recognizing the XBOX controller on the title screen and losing it as soon as the intro story scrolling finished. It didn't pick up the Dual Sense at all. Now I can play it using my Dual Sense with no issues." "Adding the game to my Steam library worked perfectly, and I didn't have to change anything else. I didn't even know you could add non-Steam games to the library until reading this." This might help you out. Good luck and thanks for watching!

Well that's strange. I don't think you're missing any items. How about this...try jumping onto the wall (it's ok if you use a double jump to do it) and then jump off of the wall by hitting the jump button without holding any direction on the D-pad. If you aren't holding any direction when you jump off of the wall, it will cause Simon to perform a bigger jump off of the wall and might set you up for doing the double jump you need. If that doesn't work and there's some bizarre bug preventing it from working, then I wonder if you can do a precise single jump to latch onto the right wall below the spikes and then jump off of that wall with another single jump and air-dash to the left to latch onto the wall. This would in theory put you on the left wall without having used a double jump. I'd be interested to know if any of that works. Thanks for watching!

As far as I know, you didn't miss anything at all. I wasn't sure about what she was saying either. I think the answer to the riddle is an eye (Dracula's eye maybe) but I don't think this lady ever does anything different, regardless of whether you have the eye or not. I don't think I spoke to her in this video but you can see her and her dialogue in my first playthrough here in the town of Aljiba: ruclips.net/video/eYNPoywrq0A/видео.htmlsi=OuaTp-KMlF04fgDP&t=3560 (If the timestamp doesn't work, it's around the 59:20 mark, and then I return with the eye at around the 3:14:30 mark) Thanks for watching!

Hey thanks man! I'm glad people are able to enjoy watching it! That second form of Dracula was a huge part of what made this run what it is so there was no way it could be left out! I bet the developers didn't even consider fighting that boss without Trevor. (I mean, why would you?) The only way this could have been more of a "true" Alucard only run is if I put in the password to start with him from the beginning but at the time I didn't even know such a password existed. Thanks for watching!

The pendulum jumping is a bit jarring at first but the way Simon locks onto the pendulum can save you at times. I think it's either very similar or maybe even the same mechanics on the pendulums in Castlevania Chronicles 3 as well. As for the fishmen though...those things were one of the major run-killers when I was trying to get a deathless playthrough. I can't tell you how many times I was returning to the first town and got sniped by a fishman, even though I was 100% focused on avoiding it! They were toned down in Chronicles 3 and especially in Masque of Retribution. Thanks for watching!

@@subledger. i remember a lot of people wanting the fishmen to be nerf'd by a lot. since not only it's almost impossible to dodge them but also their knock back is insane when they hit you. as for the pendulum issue i have a feeling that warmachine got rid of it in masque of retribution due to how a lot of players didn't like being stuck on it.

게임은 매우 재미 있습니다! 시청해 주셔서 감사합니다!

It's the gameboy palette, the platform that the original 'Castlevania Adventure' games came out on.

Yoooo Spriven! This is an alternate graphical style that can be toggled on or off by hitting select during gameplay. It's supposed to look somewhat like the original Gameboy. I think that most people will prefer the "normal" palette and won't use this one as much so I wanted to show it here since it will likely be less commonly used. Same with the music...you can pick new modernized music instead of the classic tracks but I wanted to show the less common choices in this video. If you want to see how the game looks (and sounds) normally without this palette then I have a video here: ruclips.net/video/x_JUB7v0zZ8/видео.htmlsi=omXgjVA0ab5G3NsQ Thanks for watching!

@@subledger. awesome

Haha! Yes! I can't help myself sometimes and have to do the little dance moves! It's always fun when somebody else enjoys them. Thanks for watching! 🙂

BR!

Sim! Este é um jogo muito divertido! Obrigado por assistir!

I'm glad the option is there. It's also nice to see some comments from people who enjoy the classic music. It'll be interesting to see what more people have to say about it. Thanks for watching!

@@subledger. the og adventure music and Re-birth's/Revisited's music do have some metal in them but. the musicians makes it so that it blends well with the more softer tones. and you can hear the beat of it syncing well with the other instruments. as for this game it sounds great and you can actually here it properly and is well thought out. unlike most fan renditions of castlevania music in where it's just wants to make you tear out your eardrums. due to the constant awful electric guitar riffs.

@@ashwolf2006 Yeah I'm a fan of the original's soundtrack (Battle of the Holy is one of my favorites). Belmont's Revenge has a nice soundtrack too. They even threw in a rendition of an actual Bach song which was unexpected. I don't know much from Rebirth but what I've heard definitely has a different spin on it. Some of it almost reminded me of Turtles in Time with the orchestral hits. WarMachine is a very skilled musician as well. I'm amazed at all the different techniques he uses and how it doesn't all just sound the same. Each song is unique and it does take a break at times. For example, the stage 7 music is more acoustic and relaxed, not every song has a blinding fast solo (but some do), and the battle with (a certain boss) doesn't have any guitars in it at all. The way he mixes/masters the tracks sounds professional as well. Dude has some talent for sure!

@@subledger. Rebirth/Revisited's music is one of the best one's their rendition of bloody tears and cross your heart is really well done.

@@ashwolf2006 Oh really? Looks like the soundtrack is on RUclips so I'll listen to it today!

Not at all! In my opinion it's two totally different styles which can appeal to everyone differently, especially if you're one who has nostalgia for the original Gameboy games or maybe aren't a fan of metal. I'm glad WarMachine decided to put this option in the game, and hopefully this video will highlight that. Thanks for watching!

Nothing wrong with that!

I know he's gotten a lot of requests to remake Legends so maybe one day. That guy never slows down so I'm sure he already has ideas for whatever his next project will be! Thanks for watching!

@@subledger. i hope he just re-writes legend's whole story cause. the whole reveal that the belmonts are related to dracula himself didn't really sit well with the established lore. so instead of the belmont's being related to dracula via alucard being trevor's real father. sonya would be The Last belmont to actually use the whip before passing it on to Quincy morris who she married later in her life after defeating count dracula before the whole bloodline went into hiding.

@@ashwolf2006 I enjoyed playing through Legends years ago, storyline notwithstanding. I could totally see WarMachine giving it new life though. Considering all of the surprises and Easter eggs he put in his existing games, I can only imagine how he'd build on Legends!

@@subledger. and speaking of legends here's hoping he implement's Sonia's unique ability. her soul magic ability in where she can summon elemental spirits and familiars. instead of using the traditional belmont weapons. since in lore sonia was never trained to even use those weapons but instead relied on her own unique magic ability. now imagine if somehow the belmonts combined sonia's soul magic and the belnades magic.

@@ashwolf2006 Well he did put Sypha in his Castlevania Chronicles 3 game so maybe. I happened to see that someone made a hack of Aria of Sorrow where you can play as Sonia so not everyone has forgotten about her!

I have no idea what's involved in putting a game on Steam, but I'm guessing it might have something to do with copyright that's preventing that from happening. I think you can set it up to play from Steam even though it's not downloadable on their platform though. There's also a Linux version for those who are interested. Thanks for watching!

it's a non-profit game, by putting it on steam would put the game creator into legal trouble.

It's easy. If you know how to download and transfer a non Steam game to Steam. All you gotta do is go to the trailer video for this game and it's got a link to download it.

Glad you enjoyed it. This was a fun game to play through, and it's supposed to be getting some updates in the future which should add even more to check out. Thanks for watching!

I enjoyed this one too. From what I understand the developer is working on revamping the controls and might be adding some more features to the game (right now Chronicles Mode does nothing). Not sure if multidirectional whipping would be a part of that, but who knows? Thanks for watching!

they combined both games into 1

Oh yeah I see it! It's around the 1:50 mark. That's a fun Easter egg. Thanks for watching!

I agree, though they could have made the magic meter Charge slower for Trevor while Sypha and Alucard who are magic users depend on it more so it recharges for them faster, similar to Portrait of Ruin.

I haven't played Rebirth since it was new. I remember enjoying it but I'd have to say this game definitely has the better soundtrack and more content, which I won't spoil in this comment. What does everyone else think?

I completed both games. Rebirth is harder. Because in this game, as long as you have the fire whip, every single power up candle refreshes energy and there are a lot. Plus, in Rebirth, fire whip projectile would expire. In this game, it doesn't. Some of the boss challenges in this game are a joke. So difficulty advantage definitely goes to Rebirth. However, there some revamped bosses that can be no joke. Especially in the Belmont's Revenge part of the game. This also has the better soundtrack. I appreciated the option to have the original Gameboy tracks. The transition from Adventure to Belmont's Revenge should had the skip option. It takes way too long. But overall, which game would have me come back and play over and over? This game for sure. I think the focus for this game was more homage. Lastly- Folks....get it before Komani sends the creators the dreaded C&D notice.

@@greencm7142 Alright so there's a vote for this game. I definitely agree about the difficulty. For the most part the game wasn't TOO hard for me, but that being said, there were some bosses towards the end that were very difficult (we're probably thinking of the same ones...with one in particular standing out to me). The soundtrack is ridiculously good. The developer is a very talented musician and for anyone who didn't know, all of his soundtracks are available for free on his Discord if you want to download them. The Gameboy tracks were a cool addition as well. I have another version of this playthrough where I solely used the Gameboy aesthetics and sounds just in case anyone was curious since I figured those would be used less frequently. And yeah...the cutscene could use a skip option. I agree. I wouldn't want to skip it the first time I played, but ESPECIALLY when you're failing at a deathless run over and over...a skip function would have been nice. On the flip side though, I guess I wouldn't have skipped it for the sake of showing it in the video. If anyone is interested, here's where you can find a deathless playthrough of this game but using the Gameboy styled graphics and music: ruclips.net/video/4ThwiLr4CIk/видео.htmlsi=uKjrCzyOLozAHxuJ Thanks for watching!

That'd be awesome. Wouldn't be the first time a game company hired a fan so it's not impossible! Thanks for watching!
