Honestly not too much to say, just an overall great 2D platformer.

I've been meaning to get back into the classic 2D Castlevania games for a while now, so on a whim last night while bored I decided to play through this on BSnes and ended up almost finishing the entire thing in one sitting.

There isn't really much to say except its classic 2D Castlevania. A lot of really fun setpieces, fantastic music, and really engaging gameplay. My only real complaints come from not really enjoying the new whip flail attack (would activate on accident) and also some of the level design was a little too trial and error at times.

Other than that though, this was a great time and really has me excited to play more from the series. I have to decide whether I want to play Bloodlines next, or Rondo of Blood.
