I looked for a long time and could not find a good sprite sheet for Nathan Graves from Castlevania Circle of the Moon, so I'm forced out of sprite ripping retirement for one last sheet. This one's a big one! Still a ways to go.

It's been a lot of work to make Unreal Engine 5 do various "2D Retro Effects" but there's progress made.

This one is actually manipulating a Paper Tilemap layer in real time, not a solid texture.

BIG ANNIVERSARY UPDATE!!

It's been a very difficult year. The paralysis, which I am still recovering from, and the medical bankruptcy that followed. In spite of that progress was made, maybe not as much as I'd like, but look!

@JerielBonilla wanted Symphony Of The Night. Well, there ya go! 😁 #Castlevania #WiseDrums

OK, so, don't be mad, but I got mad when I looked at the Simon Belmont sprite rip for Super Castlevania IV on Spriter's Resource, so uh, adding that to the list...

Added the "Charge Attack". Just hold the Attack button for a bit and release. Kinda works like Megaman's charged buster. Different weapons have different charge attacks. I enjoyed making the particles and shader effects! #screenshotsaturday

The item animations stay in sync always, no matter where, when, or how many spawn.

(60fps version in replies.)

I updated the 1-Up sprite to increase visibility in game. The face now shines with the shimmer. #pixelart #gamedev #megaman

Castlevania: Death

Are you doing unnecessary work when calling Delegates in #UnrealEngine?

I wrote an article about this small topic since I was dealing with it recently (it's free to read!) Includes examples and fancy Macros.
