Hack description

Here is a full hack for Castlevania.

What has been changed...

1. Structures levels except the last.

2. The color palette levels, platforms, enemies, etc.

3. Change the start-up.

4. Changed the bonuses: Big heart gives not five attempts to use additional weapons, and only two attempts. Meat restores eight units resulting damage (originally six). To use the time to stop it is necessary that in the presence of seven of hearts (five in the original).

Lows in the hack:
Just one minus was seen with the transition to the sublevel in stage 2-1, 2-2 and 3-2. The bug is not significant and does not affect the passage of the game. It was taken in the development of the American version.

Good luck.

Wow, just WOW !!!Europia792024-01-22Version 1.0

Wow, just WOW !!! This is an absolutely amazing hack !!!

Everyone has their own unique talents & gifts: Here, it's clear that the Author, Guardian, is simply naturally gifted in Level Design: Huge Fun Factor !!! Even at the beginning, there are so many enemies & it's extremely enjoying to take out 3 or 4 ghosts in a row with one Holy Water, which racks up the points, very quickly into the hundreds of thousands !!!

I am grading this a 9/10: But just for context, when I go out to eat & grade a restaurant, I NEVER grade past a 5/10: Because the most important question is did they do enough to get my repeat business or not ??? Same deal here: This hack just keeps you coming back for MORE !!!

As a side note, I personally had no problem with the choice of color palette: I actually loved the choices & thought it gave a good "atmosphere": You can really "feel" it.

Who the heck is this "Guardian" character ? Now, I want to try all of his other hacks too !!!

This is a good hack with some interesting idea and with some little problems. There isn't much to say so let's start immediately with the little problems: A lot of stairs, floors and walls are colored yellow/green..... Why? We are in Dracula's Castle not into the Dracula's Radioactive Castle, I can't understand or appreciate this choice. The problems are over so let's continue with the interesting ideas: One of my favorites things of this hack is the background of the fifth level, this level is set into a prison and the background is colored blood-red, this is fantastic because it's something much rawer, dark or simply bloody than the background of the original game. The second interesting idea is that during the levels the floors aren't regular but have a lot of holes and there are a lot of enemies that throw you into the holes, this is fantastic because it add a lot of difficulty at the game. My vote for this hack is 3.5/5
