Madilta Castilla

[kupomogli]

The lament of a young witch has been turned into a key for demons. Guide Don Ramiro through the cursed lands of Tolomera and expel the evil that entered the Kingdom of Castile.

Maldita Castilla (Cursed/damn Castile) is an action arcade game full of myths from Spain and the rest of Europe. The graphic style is raw, made pixel by pixel with a limited color palette, like in the old days, and displayed through a dirty old monitor effect. Also, Gryzor87 composed the music emulating the Yamaha YM2203 sound chip, so that the game has real arcade sound.

It pays homage to classic arcade games from 1985-1987 like Ghost'n'Goblins, Tiger Road, Black Tiger, Shinobi, Rygar, Karnov, Trojan and many others… taking influences from medieval paintings and places, and inspired by the best chivalry book ever: The Amadis of Gaul.

Looks neat. I like that he actually used the arcade sound chips.

Would be great if he could get it onto another platform ... something with loose restrictions. Maybe Ouya?

Thanks for sharing Kupo!

I just downloaded it and so far i'm really liking it. I love the pixel art look and that Yamaha chip sound. Hopefully I can sink some more time into it tomorrow.

I've been playing this for a few weeks. It's a kinder, gentler, G'n'G, and I mean that in the best way possible.
