Mario platformer fangame with a story focus inspired by M&L??? Sign me the hell up, match made in heaven. Love the little touches, like mario's scared animation being the one he does in all the m&l games, and honestly the presentation of this whole game is pretty unreal, it looks stunning

You have no idea how many comments like this we got, even though our game isn't even a fan-game, but an Indie Game so we are even more in the clear 😭

I made the mistake of posting on reddit in the first place but I'm dying

I'm losing my mind abt belmont's curse man, went to the reddit and everyone's insufferable about criticism towards the game, went to the discord and everyone's insufferable about defenders of the game
you have to pick a side and dedicate your life to kill the other apparently
fandoms were a mistake

Since we've shown the updated attack sprites, people took note of the new look for Tara and Vyn's weapons, so it's a good time for us to finally properly show them off. Here's the concept art our key artist has drawn for us almost two years ago by now! (..jeez...)

Tbh that kind of seems to be the goal with the hack, it's SO ridiculously cryptic, pretty much every "reveal" is just more vague things for you to interpret for yourself. The dev said they won't ever confirm anything, so it is kinda just something to experience & figure your own version of its story
