this would be gorgeous on PS4. looks like they are planning 3 platforms.
aside from PC, PS4 would be obviously the best platform that would generate the most profit, attention,fame and success, just like SOTN found success on PS1 instead of portable or some nonplaystation platform.
If the IGAvanias of portables released on PS2/PS3 instead, they would have gathered a larger fanbase.
and even now Castlevania Harmony of Despair, IGA's last Castlevania when with Konami, is still being playedonline on PS3, YEARS after its debut on X360.
So they would be smart to bring this to PS4 and PC.

I am liking the art but I won't say it's better than SOTN/NITM era artstyles. I think the gameplay backgrounds look a tad too colorful. SOTN to OoE, IGAvanias had a much darker, yet wonderful color tone to them that still filled with interesting enviornment designs that add a whole lot of atmosphere.
it wouldn't have as much impact if they lean towards a more lighthearted presentation, I mean even
PoR was very dark and gritty world despite its lighthearted personalities and animeish vibes.
I dunno, maybe the HD graphics kind of brightens things a bit. It doesn't seem the original sprite team is in this project, but still the concept is looking solid.
but these are first impressions, looking at the concept screen, the enviornment does have some dark
themes, the ground ceiling just looks bright because of its reflective material.
So yea, it is at least nice they didn't make this super deformed.
