Exploring a newly released Castlevania fan game by verasev. Hunt down dracula once again with four unique characters to choose from, each of which is based on the unique playstyles seen in the original series.
This is a fun action game that takes advantage of Weave ZZT to smooth over vanilla ZZT"s limitations without going all out on the fancy tech Weave permits. Instead, it plays like a ZZT action game that previously could only exist uncompromised in the author's head. Using the classic overhead view, the game has players explore castles, gardens, libraries, and other places where you just might find a dracula. Each character has a special ability that allows them to access otherwise restricted rooms for great treasures, putting players in the habit of keeping their eyes open to not miss anything.
The combat is fast paced and has a very nice rhythm to it thanks in part to playing on a faster than default speed which keeps the full sized rooms from getting tedious to cross, especially once all the enemies have been defeated. Combat is back and forth where landing an attack places enemies in a counterattack mode that prevents spamming your whip (or other melee weapon) and allows skilled players to use the downtime to go after other nearby enemies, making it more worthwhile to keep your enemies close instead of trying to lure them out one at a time.
The visuals are verasev's usual fanciful style, making use of a custom font to tilt ZZT more in Castlevania's direction with lots of nice scenery and decorative pieces. This playthrough covers half(?) of the game's levels and is one I'm looking forward to finishing soon!
