Castlevania – Alternate Scarlet Symphony
1.3.2 update:
- Blue Medusa Heads don’t poison now, yay! (it just throws you out the wall)
- Small layout changes on some areas to EASILY see more paths you can take to prevent feeling blocked and forced to backtrack
- Fix areas in Clock Tower that can cause soft locking
- Added lots more Hints at the Library!
- Increased ATK of some Throw Weapons. THEY DONT use MP now too, you can use them unlimited times
- Brought back Demon Familiar! All familars also quick level up to Lvl99 so you don’t have to grind just to hear “Lightning Spear!”
- Increased ATK of some weapons too, to make most of them viable until end game.
- Fixed some more Item description spellings and texts
1.3.0 update:
- opened up some areas of the map so you’ll have MORE routes to take after you get Soul of Wolf
- some more hints in the relic on how to progress in the game
- new accessories that can be purchased in the Library: EASY MODE and HARD MODE. Equip EASY MODE to half all damage taken, and HARD MODE to receive 2x damage taken
- polished some areas, make it easier for Mist form to slip into some spaces, also to prevent softlocking on some areas
- lots of weapons buffed and rebalanced
- spells are buffed in damaged but increase MP cost, Gravity Boots no longer needs MP to use.
- New Relic (kinda) – Sky Walker – Jump Infinitely
- buffed foods HP heals
- if this Hack got lots of downloads and stream/playthrough videos, I’ll consider DOING THE INVERTED CASTLE
Features:
- Castle layout changes! Being a creature of Chaos, Dracula’s Castle still undergoes changes and Alucard, who slept a year later before going inside, founds out that the castle is different again. Experience new paths, new secret passages, and a different way to explore your beloved castle!
- Some new weapons! No more same old sword with just different stats. Some weapons have different elemental attribute that will help you kill tough enemies! Example – Armors are weak to Lightning. Don’t forget to read or buy some HINTS at the Librarian!
- Throw items now only cost MP! Got a boomerang? TNT? Use them all you want!
- Shield combo works on any weapon! Not just Shield Rod. Enjoy the freedom of having multiple combat options at your disposal! Use Shield spell combos anytime, anywhere!
- Rebalanced stats and spells and stuff Based on my old Big Number rebalanced patch (https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/8594/) this game features a difficulty curve where all enemies can still pose a challenge at any time. Make sure to try and find their weaknesses so you can take them out easily!
- And more that I forgot I added!
