Personally, I think it’s perfect for a NES Castlevania style game. Quite a bit easier than those games, though.

I loved the first one, 100%'d it in a couple of days, but this game, despite some of the cool things it does, is just too frustrating to play! It really does feel like specific levels are built around specific characters, and some of the moving platform sections are a huge exercise in frustration (Worst clocktower segment of any castlevania game I've ever played, classicvania and precision platforming SUCK) Combine that with some truly frustrating bosses (the pharoah in episode 2, Gremorie's weird angled f...

Haven't tried this yet, but I need to hear from the REAL MVPs who even have a CONCEPT of what a non-"indie," non- "Shovel Knight," ACTUAL NES game literally even is and is like... I beat BS:CotM1 on "whatever 'Normal' was called" only getting a single (bad?) ending for Zangetsu. Achievement is displayed up top on my profile. Is this game REALLY that flipping hard, or is this just another case of "kids on Vietnam War battlefields" over the actual firs...

I just thought that CIII had better level design. Does COTM 2 improve this at all?

Trying to co-op using Remote Play Together, but can't control or even assign inputs to player 2. Both my friend and I can control player 1: She's hosting and can control P1 using her controller or the keyboard; I can also control P1 at the same time, but only using the keyboard. Since I'm not the host, my own controller input isn't detected at all, neither during gameplay nor in the menus. I looked through similar topics but none of them were very specific or helpful. One appeared to suggest that both p...

So, I just got to Sariel last night in the Final Episode and I've been stuck on him for a while... but when I closed out my game today and opened it - slot 4 (where my Final save file was) was empty! Is this a known issue or did I just get really unlucky?...

This makes me sad. I really hoped this jarring effect would be addressed as the headaches it caused ruined the first game for me. Seems it was too technical a hurdle for the developers to fix. Everything else about these titles makes me want to play, but alas, it is not to be. ...and before I get the same response I got last time around... no, it's not just me. It's visible in literally every gameplay video. Once you see it, you know....

Any info on that ?

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3331018685 Like in this picture, there is what I think is a crawl-space up there, but I have no idea how I'm supposed to enter it. Can't hover into character-swap crawl. Are they meant to be one way crawl-spaces, and thats the exit-side? Also, I've seen few crawlspaces that are just deadends, one was there earlier in the ice-level. Is there something to them?...

Just played the demo of Darkest Abyss, its done in the same style. Not out yet but the demo shows it has potential and something to look out for. Came across it by chance and there aren't a ton of games like this so I thought I'd put this here.
