Castlevania II - COA (Linear Reboot) & Castlevania II - SQ (Linear Reboot)

[Sephirous]

Finally found some time to work on this project.
Been dealing with personal stuff, Getting married etc.
So I began working on Stage 3 and OMG this stage was a pain in the ass!!
It did not in any way like my editing of the graphics, It was determined to remember the way it was originally programmed no matter how hard I tried moving stuff around. Until at last I grabbed the game by it's balls and planned ahead matching the tiles exactly to where the original ones were bit by bit. So this time when the stage started it didn't notice anything had been changed. In simple terms, No more Richter falling to death as stage started falling through floor.

Here is the the latest, Starting to look familiar.

"The Richter Belmont was reed a letter he gots from the mail. His son wa sick but he read the lettar ovar the candle for the lights. It was dark night and he was in the house but the lettre ws afrom Maria Rennard!"

That piece of fanfiction was so funny - it doesn't matter if it's 'fake' or not.

All those statues? Why not have Maria be a statue?
And where there are statues there is Medusa!

So what's this exactly?

- An 'uncensored' hack?
- A hack that combines the best from the two different versions?
- An abandoned hack that has recently been picked up again?

- A hack that combines the best from the two different versions, including uncensoring, using an abandoned hack as a base?

[Sephirous]

Two separate projects.

One is an attempt to Un-Censor the USA Version with some extra edits as well such as giving Cyclops a Pupil, Adding more detailed attributes to the female statues and characters that are naked. Enemy clean up. The USA version is basically a refurbished version of the Japanese Version but not entirely. Also cleaning up Palette errors, dialogue, etc.

The other project is an attempt to reboot the abandoned project "Cadence Of Agony" but with a linear perspective.
The original beta from what I have read and asked, became to complicated and crashed the editor initially destroying the Rom into a mess.
My goal is to put the broken pieces back together. I am using the Un-Censor project as it's base.
Though I am limited with knowledge as when the time comes to work on Music, possible character select of all characters found during the entire game. I would love to find a way to import the NSF file that Optomon created the first time around, however from what I have researched I don't think it will be something I will figure out. Though I said the exact same thing when I first started working on Graphic Importing and now it's second nature to me.

Don't really know. Optomon is  pretty busy doing Rogue Dawn at the moment (NEStroid hack).

This looks very cool ! I look forward to be playing this !

[Sephirous]

That was a quick Poll!

Here is the result.

Nice!

If you want your hack to be taken seriously then don't try to add belmonts as statues. That's like saying they failed and Dracula ruled for 50 years till the next generation of belmont finally stopped him.

Frankenstein for Mid-Boss.

I'm going to take a peek at the idea of adding more Mid-Bosses to the other stages.
What I would like to aim for is giving the player no matter which route he/she takes the chance to face all the bosses in the game.
Not just ones that are specific to route choice.


Note - Speaking of bosses, I am also working on a small project called, Castlevania III Boss Rush.

[MathUser2929]

Then I hope you will soon begin Castlevania IV: Boss Rush.

[Thirteen 1355]

Cool!
