Description
Hello! Just a quickie Pixel submission. So has been playing Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon and she showed it to me. It's very Castlevania-esque and they have quite beautiful sprite work. Very colorful backgrounds and imaginative bosses and all. It's amazing what you can do with 3 or 4 colors! So I thought, why not try and give it a go and make an old-school, 8-bit Ryo? Originally when working on this, he had six colors, but further study showed the main characters had up to 4. So I had to reduce colors, thus why his outfit is brown like his skin, not red and why his gold portions are bone.
Who knows? Maybe I'll do more of them in this style? Maybe I'll even make a game like this. This style is pretty simple to work with. ^^
Hope you enjoy!

This is neat to see. I love how it looks and he does look like he can be in a Castlevania game. (Although I did read the Artist's Comments. So I know it's not from that.) Would be neat to see some of the others in this style.

Bloodstained is very close to Castlevania. We suspect that the people even got the artists to do the character and cover art for the game, as Bloodstained looks very Castlevania-esque. The gameplay is similar as well, but while the games do have their similarities, they both really stand out as their own thing, especially regarding the bosses. I'd recommend checking it out. But yes, your comparison is applicable. ^^
The style is quite simple and working with a small sprite should make animation easier. So who knows? I might be able to make something with this. ^^ If I get enough characters in this style, I'll maybe post them standing all together.

Oh, I see. Well, I'll take a look at the game then.
I guess it should be. That would be neat to see though.
