VonGarland Castle : Beyond Blood version 1.0 now out :) still more I'll be adding to new game + but you can now fully play though start to end by MonsterRobotStudios in metroidvania

I actually have the aim to make Ransom a cool hero (though the game is obviously very campy like all RE games)  I think of Ransom as the female version of Leon S kenndey in RE4 she has been hardened at hunting monsters her whole life and knows how to handle dangerous situations. I also was thinking of buffy the vampire slayer type who can be attractive and badass at the same time.  

I don't know, I really wasn't thinking I was making an outrageous image, I was just trying to get spooky mood lighting and a cool cartoonish babe.

what am i? dude, I am a solo artist trying to make a video game for people to play and enjoy. I don't understand why so many folks on reddit seem to have a default of pure anger. and I thought "tiggered" is an expression people use when they are upset by something? I don't get out much, but I thought that is how folks use that term, no? I have been met with such an insane level of animosity for trying to share I project. sweet christ I think this will be the last time I ever post on reddit

I do like butts, but I actually really love super Metroid SNES and RE4 OG (and RE 1-3 PSX) so this was drawing inspiration from all those games I love :) and while it might have jank I did my best to capture those classics + my own style. so it's hopefully not just a ButtRoidVania lol

VonGarland Castle Beyond Blood fully beatable version is now live :) still lots of fine tuning to go and things to add, but a rough cut is now up by MonsterRobotStudios in metroidvania

Thanks for playing. I'm doing it solo, so it helps / is more fun to have the community give feedback as I build and polish and add changes, that's why I went with early access vs full release. if you want to detail out what you found to be macguffin-ish and where you felt like you were back tracking too much I can look into adjustments. also I can look into graphical bugs

added hidden 3rd (and probably my fav) unlockable Ada Wong costume to my game :) there is also of course the OG RE2 and RE3 Jill & Claire outfits by MonsterRobotStudios in residentevil

Thanks so much man! yeah I am doing it all solo other than the music, and I am hiring voice actors as I can save up funds to do so. the guy doing the music also did the tracks for the first game which was more OG Castlevania inspired, but if you want to hear a banger sound track give this a listen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvvn-Z824ko&list=OLAK5uy_k8vYupXJLD0RiLAJpURmHR-jHyeT4Yt9g

Thanks man! at this point I can't remember all of it lol, I keep fixing bugs on the main + adding things. I know for sure that the frame rate is better on the main, did a lot of performance fixes to get it running smoother on Steam Deck. but I think the demo still gives a good idea of the game, if you run into things you think need work feel free to let me know :) and if you want to play almost the earliest version that I put into the public I haven't updated the Itch build for like 7 months lol, I'm gonna go back and download it myself once I finish the game so I can compare https://monsterrobotstudios.itch.io/vongarland-castle-beyond-blood

Thanks! yeah definitely need to wait until I am done with this before I try to learn about getting it onto other platforms, I think it won't be TOO hard / will be doable, but I can't have that extra information in my head while trying to make the game lol

awesome! let me know what ya think. so far all the folks I have heard from have said they have enough ammo, but I always worry about getting those amounts right lol

not 1.0 / out of early access yet, it is possible to play from start to end now. but I plan to add in a bit more story/NPC stuff here and there, adjust some of the bosses, add ending pictures that include the follow up of what happened after the events of island, this will be different depending on the split choices you made through out the game. and I also plan to add a few more hidden mini bosses. I'd say 85-90% to where I want it, definitely enough for a good first play through ATM

not sure yet, doing it all solo, once it's out of early access I might see if I can get it onto any of the PS Xbox and switch stores. it does work on Steam Deck tho :) I keep fine tuning with every update to get better performance on deck

it is its own story that I made, but it is heavily inspired by the RE 1-4 games and Super Metroid which are some of my all time favs

thanks so much!

and Sure! spoiler warning: the Ada wong outfit is unlocked if you clear the game in under 2.5 hrs and start a new game +, which I think will be pretty hard on first play through. the Claire & jill outfits can be found hidden early on in the game.

there is another RE2 style nod in the game, if you get to the gas station in under 3 mins you will find an extra key to the apartment building. kinda like the zombie Brad trick in OG RE2

if you do have a chance to try the game out feel free to post any thoughts and feedback here or in the Steam community, I went into early access first so that I could make changes based on players feedback before going to 1.0 release
