Looking good. Looks really nice.

Are you hoping to speed it up ? will it run faster on an A1200 ? or accelerated machine ?

How finished is this, is there room for more frames for things like the dogs ?

The game runs at 100% speed most of the time on 7mhz, no slowdown on 14mhz.

We are working on it (will be 6 levels). Hopefully we can finish the game for next year.

Looks great. Better than that terrible Amiga Castlevania.

Really really nice.
A Castlevania look a like was one of my dream game on the Amiga, especially with the poor version we had.

I love how the music is different but still remains castlevania-style.
