(...) the vast majority of people I knew who liked it also discovered it form that god-awful ronald mcdonald thing... I don't understand, if I saw that damn commercial, I would have absolutely NO INTEREST in anything related to it.. seriously.. how the heck do people go from seeing that abomination to deciding "omg I have to try whatever that's based off of!"... What's wrong with you?? It's OBVIOUSLY the Great Hakurei Barrier secret entrance! That's en-trance! HAHAHA Ronald it's a portal for those who are unaware of Gensokyo existence hehehe. Seriously: For example in my case, I found the video funny, not frightening. Also I thought that song was very sticky and I was listening to Ronald video too much, so I wondered what was that tune I was listening and "UN Owen was her?" appeared. Then some red, or better said, some scarlet mist surrounded me like in Super Castlevania IV and I saw a big M as a portal to another dimention an POOF! I saw Gensokyo!!! Also to those new fans, I reccomend this Touhou Wiki to follow the thread better. There we can find characters, concepts, items, games, descriptions, art, music, etc many many useful references =)

(...)Yes, the game is so nice to just admire the scenery. Did you start it up again?? YUP I played it again. The fist time I played it I haven't notice I could hunt lizards to increase my strength! I mean, I did hunt some of those lizards the first time, but it wasn't like I HAVE TO find them all! If I hunted one ok and if not, baahh! The second time I tried to find them all to climb to the secret garden area! Also I always tried to hunt those glowing white birds that flew when you were back beside your beloved after beating a Colossus!! Once I HUNTED one of those birds! I was excited "What did I just get? =D Nothing -_ xD XD " But the pleasure to hunt it was my reward ^^ hehehehe

TOUHOU! I like the series a lot! However I'm just a little newbie hehe if you compare me with many others. About the official games, I've just played and got to the end of the first 6 games, meaning I have played most of the old days games! Fron the Windows era I've just played TH06, meaning Flandre, Remilia, Sakuya, Patchouli, Meiling, Reimu, Marissa and the rest of the cast are the characters I know better, I have little idea about TH07 as I haven't played it.
I discovered the series thanks to the now classic Ronald Mc Donald's Madness!! I'll post the video here just to fry some neurons and cause some nightmares to those who haven't seen it:
How is that video Touhou related new comers may ask? Well, the song it's Touhouish, it's a character's main theme, the young vampire Flandre Scarlet (a hidden final boss, very difficult indeed!!!) "UN Owen Was Her?" it's the title of the main theme.
Also, before Bloodstained, I was looking for some indie Castlevania-like game or something, and thanks to Touhou I discovered Koumajou Densetsu (Touhouvania) I liked it a lot =D
AND DATT take me to discover Castlevania Fighter, where Reimu (and Marrisa, and Cirno), and Sakuya are playable characters ^^

I had some problems at the beginning too but now I'm comfortable with the controls.There is a configuration file to define window size, fullscreen and stuff, but I can't remember if there is customization for the buttons... I don't have the file here in this moment. But forget that file =P A better option is joytokey.net/en/You can map keyboard keys to any joystick/gamepad! I used it with The Binding of Isaac (have you all played this great game?) I haven't tried JoyToKey with Castlevania Fighter though, but give it a try, it must work! C=

(...) even if the forums don't become the official forums, some of the forum staff could become official community managers/communicators and be given secret behind-the-scenes information and a direct phone line to someone from the dev team. I've seen that happen too. We've also been getting some people (well, at least one person) from Fangamer to join, which is nice! (...)A fan-site has become an official site before? Wow.(...) www.darkestdungeon.com/This used to be a fansite called Darker Dungeon. Now it's the game's actual news and official forum site. About my own experience, yes this can happen for sure! What is real real important is the fan base to keep working for the project as much as possible. Then you'll get the enough attention to get involved with real staff, executives, etc to support your job and become official. Time will say what will happen with this Bloodstained forums, but it certainly happens, no doubt abouit it! Do you know te name Richter Bel.......? I MEAN XD Do you know the name Alizée? She's french singer. I was an admin and president of her official fan club in Mexico some years ago. I was in charge alonside others for many years. About that experience if you dare to read the following wall text I can tell you some indepth milestones very very briefly, hopefully you'll find them interesting:
- We started as two freaky lonely fans and an unkown foreign singer.
- Fan forums were created, close friends were invited.
- The main focus for us fans became PROMOTION, that was a key word. Free publicity for the singer to make her known by people.
- We increased our own knowledge to be able to help much more the community (for example, I improved my programming skills for the forums and the website, I learnt how to draw manga for fanart, and I also learnt french to be able to translate interviews, songs, etc.)
- We gathered fans that wanted to help with different abilities: graphic designers, programmers, writers, translators, muscicians, printing houses staff, plushies makers, t-shirt printers and a long etc.
- As our fan base grew, the quality and quantity of the promotion got much better thanks to fans, thus gathering more fans.
- We managed to get the state of official fan club and forums speaking with Universal (back then) executives showing the work done and the interest of the community.
- Alliances with other communities in differrent countries like USA and French grew. We exchanged products with them and we helped the fans to get the products they wanted via contests.
- Alizée changed from Universal to Sony Music. The official state didn't transfer immediatelly, so we needed to keep up the good work and we managed to get the official state once again demostrating Sony executives we were capable of doing great promotion, and we could move our fan base as needed to help Alizée.
- Countries needing help to get their official fan club asked us for help, so we guided their representatives with our experience to successfully get their official state.
- Sony talked to us admins often, and we gathered special information like news or as the time passed we even got top secret info like the hotel and room were Alizée was going to be in an hotel, etc.
As time passed, many events occured and the fandom was divided. Our beloved community split because of a foll bad intentioned admin. The story is too long, but let's say we decided to abbandon ship: We left our beloved official website and forums because we were completely fed up about that individual, so much we decided to start from scratch once again: We created new forums, a new website etc as the first community had been corrupted by this individual and his followers. WE KNEW we were going to get once again the official state, because all the people that REALLY made the things happend and worked HARD, including ourselves of course, was moving to the new forums/club. Thus:
- We tripled our work as admins, and guiding the community to get needed self proposed goals, and we promoted Alizée better.
- Time passed and Sony made us the official club AGAIN, as we were the ones doing the real work and our community.
- Sony gave us CDs, DVDs, special events and offers for our fan base to give to our loyal fans as we wanted (mainly through contests), often sharing those with the other club though (we made them do it, the fans didn't have the fault of their new "leaders")
- Alizée herself knew about Mexico and her loyal fans thanks to intimate contacts we managed to get in touch. So we contacted directly with no intermediaries
- She came to Mexico to give some concerts and special meetings with fans and fan clubs. We get a special treatment for us and our fan base. She know who we were and she recognized us.
- We managed to buy her a special gift she wanted, and we gave her the gift in the name of the community.
- Finally she thank us personally back stage for all that we have done for her. She was aware of our efforts.

Downloading it. Right. now (...) Someone please tell me how to use megaupload, it started 'cloud' downloading or whatever it is, it is now at 100% and I dunno what to do..- You're downloading the game in your PC, am I correct? (in mobile you'll need to download an app, etc it's a different process) In the desktop browser version, you don't need an account nor an app, you can start your download directly; when you open Mega and click download the file, let's say, will pre-download first. Once you get the 100% you're ready to store the file in the folder of your choice. A pop up window will appear and you can store the file. That's it =P About Dracula, if you manage to get to fight with him in the Arcade Mode you won't regret! It was a great fight! Try to beat fim in normal or avove difficulty (=

I discovered the game thanks to Touhou, as I was hoping to find a new Castlevania-like game. I played Koumajou Densetsou (Touhouvania 1) and I found Reimu is playable in Castlevania Fighter. I gave it a try and now I'm a fan! I haven't played Koumajou Densetsu 2 yet... YUP I read about Frozen Half! I'm happy this game is still being updated =D
Anyway, what do you think about the story? The story will change a lot they say, but as it stands right now, well it's a little bizarre. So the playable enemies (Death, skeleton, etc) are trying to defeat Dracula to prevent him to destroy their own Dracula's dimension, thus they are trying to defeat that Dracula to aid his own dimentional Dracula??
Aaahhhh those time travels!!!

YUP Ixbran, I was talking about the 2D prequel and retro bonus stage sprites as clarified by ChucklesTheJesterAnyway, even Carrie made it to this game and I don't know any official 2D sprites of her, so Miriam, Gebel and company will eventually make it to Castlevania Fighter, as it is still being updated. We even have fan sprites right now, so it's a matter of time =)

Looks impressive, but also really hard. I'm a little intimidated. Remember you have multiple difficulties, thus you can start in Easy. Nightmare it's very difficult but achievable! So don't worry and give the game a chance! Just download it and play! It's funny and you have plenty of characters to try and find the one you play better! =) I tried playing it. I can tell that I suck but it's still fun regardless. Maybe you should try another character? I'm used to play now with Reimu Hakurei, and she's not even a Castlevania character hehe but I'm now playing great with her. Don't understimate any boss xD Also a tip: Don't just backdash to prevent damage, every character has a powerful attack (not only the item crash one), a normal attack that makes you invinsible for some seconds. You'll need to master those attacks to be able to dodge some enemy attacks =) ... wait ... it has Carrie? EEEEEE <3
YUP! That'a Carrie =D That's what I like about these fan games: With effort, we can have great quality content for all fans! Carrie came from a 3D realm and now look: great 2D sprites =) SO, now that we know Bloodstained will feature 2D sprites, we can be sure Miriam will be available as a playable character in Castlevania Fighter some day (I know they want to implement her at some point in the future) (=

Ahhh Shadow of the Colossus, awesome game. This is one of those games that are pure art: you can absolutely love it or hate it completely. I enjoyed it a lot. I tryed to made some friends play it back then in the PS2 days, but they were not patient enough to enjoy travelling the region, look at the sky, climb to a tree just to stare the horizon, and not patient enough to take a loooonng journey to the next colossus, or even defeating the first one. I ended the game and OOOHH POOR ARGO! I cried with it's tragic destiny, I really cried! ='( BUT that was only before the final boss! The ending is one of those who let's you imagine so many things.
Great game, I'll play it again right now =)

I've played it myself, it is really fun =) NIGHTMARE difficulty is too difficult xD as the bosses are much more faster and powerful, even they avoid as much as possible the item crash attacks, but enjoyable too.

While we patiently wait new updates about our beloved Bloodstained, what about a great game to play in the meanwhile? =) A great reccomendation is Serio's Castlevania Fighter! It was developed in response to Castlevania Judgement dissapointment... Castlevania Fighter is a complete Boss Rush Mode game, in which you play as any of the following characters: If you're thinking:
- "What are those drawings?"
- Don't worry, the game itself makes use of the great 2D sprites we all love. There are custom sprites as well, alongside the original ones.
- "Reimu Hakurei?? Ronald McDonald??? What's that boring nonesense?"
- Firstly those characters are not boring, you should give them a try! Have you imagined beating Dracula with a frog? Yeah a green frog!! (not listed here) It's fun!
- If you just can't stand seeing those characters there, you can completely remove the Extra Characters roster easily by deleting file.
- "What about the gameplay?"
- If you've played any Boss Rush mode in any Castlevania, you know what this is all about already. Boss battle after boss battle. THUS this game features many bosses of divers Castlevania games. You'll recognize them with no doubt because the game uses their original sprites and behaviors with a few twists to make the game better (= There are bosses from other games too as special guests of some sort, but this game is mainly Castlevania related.
- Every character has multiple subweapons always available at their dispossal and can be changed pressing a button
- There are 4 levels of difficulty (Easy, Medium, Hard and Nightmare which really happens to be nightmare-ish)
- There is a store feature that let's you improve your character's stats. You can buy items to use in-game, like HP and MP potions.
- There are spells! YEAH! As in SotN!! Even transformations! Take a look at this example:
- You can even choose to play alongside another character against one or two other characters at the same time too! Ex. You're Alucard fighting alongside a CPU Richter against Dracula & Death at the same time!
- You can choose several palette colors for all characters. ALSO there are special characters that can be played in different ways. For example Simon Belmont can be played as Chronicles Simon, as Super Castlevania IV Simon or even as Castlevania 1 Simon, ALL these variations with distinctive abilities each!!
OH THY EPICNESSZSS!!!1!1! =P There are more questions and answers in their FAQ. Please access the games website at serio.piiym.net/cvbla/ and read the FAQ. You really want to read it (= This is a game you HAVE TO PLAY, please do it! Here's a random video about this game if you're still uncertain (may contain spoilers): How that hype already? JUST PLAY IT, ok? And you're heading their website to download it.... NOOOooooo00000OOOOooooowwwWWWW!!!Post your comments/doubts about the game here (= =D C=

Yeah not having more tiers is a problem.I often pledge for projects I think the idea is very innovative, like this one, I'm a backer but at the lowest level, just for help a little =) I've pledged for some projects at IndieGoGo as well c= I think this idea is really great! I saw another project similar to this one, but instead of a HD display, you use your smartphone XD I think that's not the best idea XD
