in contrast to Super Castlevania 4, the controls in this game actually feel good. the way continues work adds a frustrating layer of difficulty, but having beaten it I do now feel rewarded for struggling against it as much as I did. the levels are long and there are almost no health drops, which makes me like the game a bit less, as you feel like you have to play nearly perfectly to win, but the checkpointing is fairly generous which dulls that complaint somewhat. really liked this game in the end and ill probably go back adn learn to play it better in the future
this game is the poop. by far my least favorite castlevania that i've beaten. the difficulty curve is psychotic and the controls are mushy and inconsistent. hard to tell when youre gonna get an actual whip attack vs a whip that counts as half a hit. they gave you way more control over simon compared to most castlevania games with better air control and 8 whip, but that just emboldened them to put enemies in terrible spots and put some really absurd jump and swing points
its fun being able to play with multiple characters. parts of the game are really hard and unforgiving, along with some of the levels being very long... i'll probably bump up its score a bit if i learn it a bit better
