Good But...	StarWyvern	2019-12-15	Version 1.3
Hey all. This hack gives a better feel for the soul change elements of AOS Hacks like Genya Arikado. But, the walk/run animation for Alucard isn't as smooth as it is for Arikado. And the story for Genya Arikado felt more correct. I like the Sprite of Future Alucard, but it needs smoothing. Also, the Palette change for Julius' Blue Outfit is no longer there, which for me was sorely dissapointing. If anything the sprite for julius should've been updated to look more like Richter, rather than reverting him to his original colors. Still, the concept was great, and gets an 8/10 from me for this hack. Keep up the good work.

Great Job!	Ziko	2018-12-01	Version 1.3
This hack is almost inescapable to me as I've spent a lot of time with it and Alucard's updated design is well done. The attention to detail is amazing as not only the graphics look nice but the updated souls and weapons make this game feel like a completely different product than a simple sprite hack which are prevalent with Castlevania games. I loved SotN and this game feels like a complete sequel in a lot of ways.
