Excellent review, Marc. Some of the references fly over my head, but it shows you know an ungodly amount about the series Bloodstained is based upon, and add authority to your review. The source material favours you; best thing you've written in some time!

Thanks, dude! It's been awhile since I reviewed something I gave a shit about. That always helps. But now, back to your regular scheduled indie-effort-template-based-review.

This was a great review, much more informative and well-flowing than any other I've read. I'm looking forward to trying this out. Important question, though; do you have any air control in your jumps, or do you just have a fixed arc like the old games? I hated that nonsense in the original titles and have to get a mod for air control when playing Castlevania 3. I have a bunch of mods for that, might make a blog about it.

I never said the references weren't solid, only that they flew over my head. I've not played as much Castlevania as a lot of people.

Great review, Marc! I especially loved the third paragraph from the end, where you talked about the utility of the four-character team and how that can work to your advantage. But there were a lot of great bits throughout.
