Saint Slayer: Spear of Sacrilege Dev Cites Famicom Castlevania as Influence
In a Game Spark interview, Lillymo Games founder Barry Johnson discusses the Famicom-style 2D action game Saint Slayer: Spear of Sacrilege, released for PC on April 20. Johnson cites the Famicom Castlevania as a key influence, noting the game's 21 stages, 7 boss battles, and elements that encourage replay, such as an Orb Shop and unlockable passwords. The game is set in late 17th-century Europe and does not currently support Japanese.
