Played it on my show Indie Game Roundup (Starts at 54:07 if embed isn't working). Very promising so far!

I made a part 2 of this game as, I didn't want it to drag out and, I really enjoy what Duck Block Games has done with this. If you are like me a kid of the 80's and, want some Castlevania Nostalgia with a brand new concept or, if you are new to that type of games and, may enjoy side scrollers you won't want to miss out on this game!

Good little game for a 2 person dev team! 

Real fun! Great demo ive always loved these types of games! i had a blast and cant wait till the full game is out! Cant wait till see all the abilities in the full release!

Forsaken Castle is all the fun of a Castlevania game and all the exploring of classic Metroid, but without the frustrating difficulty of either! Mellow music and an anime character style lighten the overall tone of an undead riddled game, but do not hinder enjoyment in any way. From a well crafted level design and background providing depth to the areas you traverse, to the easy to use controls, everything in this game seems to work very well. It even has hidden treaures! (Though I couldn't find them all...) This is a fine work overall, especially for a Pre-Alpha.

Good job, devs. You made a nice thing and I'm interested in seeing more.

Had a blast playing this. I do have a second part of this game once I learned the keybinds of the keyboard better. Takes some getting used to I bet playing on a controller is 10X easier. It reminded me a lot of castlevaina the many joyus hours of my youth spent on that game. This game makes you not want to put it down due to nostalgia and, it being it's own type of game.

You've absolutely nailed the art style and really managed to evoke some nostalgia for retro metroidvainias, more castlevania than anything else, but I see the inspiration from both. The upgrade and ability progression is fantastic and it really lent a sense of momentum to the demo. However, I did find the combat system somewhat stale due to the fixed angles and lack of air control, these might be personal preference, but I talk about it extensively at the end of the episode. The strangest thing to me was the music choice though. There were some instances where it was okay, but others where it didn't fit at all. Smooth jazz doesn't really fit in an undead filled cavern... But the whole package looks pretty promising! Well done!

Hi CoalFire! Thanks for the video and the feedback! I posted a response to some of your concerns in the comments section of your video. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

I have heard about this project before and I must say that it really is a very well-made game. The mechanics seem to work flawlessly and the graphics do the retro thing well, while having some modern touches.

We'd love to have your game taking part in this year's Game Development World Championship - if it's ready enough by October.

Thank you! We have a ways to go in development yet, but we're picking up steam as we solidify our foundation! We shall see if we can make it in time.

Good luck with that then!

This looks sooo good! I'm downloading this right now!
