The screens don’t do the game justice, but here they are nonetheless. Developer Way Forward are quickly establishing themselves as masters of 2D gaming, establishing a fluidity of motion in games like this and A Boy and His Blob like we’ve never seen before. Someone get these folks a Castlevania licence.
I’d settle for some sexy Alucard on BloodRayne fan art. No no, that’s the wrong Alucard. Screw it, I’ll just wait until the game comes out in August and use my imagination.

I hope it comes out on Wii U or something so I can play it. Hell I’d settle for plain old Wii >_>

But after watching the video I was impressed that the characters have so many animation frames. Way more than any 2D CV I’ve ever played.
