- This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/2633M.html
This movie has been obsoleted by tasvideos.org/4401M.html. TAS originally published on 2014-07-09.
Castlevania Chronicles is a PSX remake of the Japan-only X68000 game Akumajō Dracula (悪魔城ドラキュラ), which is a remake of the first Castlevania (tasvideos.org/901M.html). In this game, Simon Belmont is out to defeat the evil Count Dracula.
In this run, the author uses Arrange Mode, as it's more suitable for taking damage to save time (Simon loses less HP when getting hit than in Original Mode). He also abuses a trick that allows him to use a subweapon with a shorter attack animation (jumping and whipping before attacking with the subweapon). - เกม

OST be like
NES Castlevania: disco edition
The absolute ARTISTRY in this video. And the music. Fucking amazing.
this soundtrack is pretty great ngl
Especially its version of Simons Theme. So great.
No shit, mad props from Cinder!
Me and my son just watched this at his graduation practice! Lmao!
Keep the Castlevania shining!
Beautiful run!
When you beat a new TAS world record 1 minute after its set...
alexberp both runs are reuploads
0:46 That beat drop!
Just my personal timestamps of magical moments~
0:44 6:19 7:47 8:00 11:17 11:24 12:54 14:19 16:12
Those hits on medusa felt personal lmao
💀💀💀
trying to get the canonical ending for simon by getting hit in the end i see.
I absolutely loved that medusa thing dude, amazing
Great game, great TAS.
This is my new favorite pasttime - watching these while in proper condition.
Wow. You really destroyed the bosses.
This would be even faster on Japanese version. As Medusa had shorter invincibility frames.
The arranged music is wayyy better !
11:24 disrespect
This is wonderful
Why? it was amazing!
The Cross/boomerang affords a lot of opportunities to rack up a ton of points (and lives) very easily in this game. I'm seeing 7,000's all over the place. There is even a spot right before Frankenstein where you can stand behind a wall and mow down red skeletons repeatedly, taking advantage of the score multiplier.
17:45 from that point I love that run
13:59-14:08 Simon: Are you okay, ma'am? You don't seem to be feeling well.
OH F--K, IT'S A FEMALE WEREWOLF!
KILL IT! KILL IT! KILL IT!
My first and favorite Castlevania game, at least favoritre non-metroidvania
THRASHARD IN THE CAVE GO 🔥🔥🔥🔥
😎 excellent game play
I am SO glad they gave up on this visual redesign of Simon. It's just freaking awful.
I understand that's your opinion, but I personally love the Ayami Kojima design. I'd agree, though, the classic design is more iconic.
@@alynnzz0491 yeah, i fell like its perfect as some king meme "skin"
@@arthurcatisani explain, please?
@@alynnzz0491 oh sorry, my english is bad. I meant this simon's punk visual is good as a meme
@@arthurcatisani Ah, got it.
Fue una grandiosa partida enese Castlevania 🙂
Just kept walking forward with no fear
Just wondering but why is the time not counting down in this run?
They turned it off in the options.
the long purple hair makes him look like a girl. did he have a rebellious punk rock phase i didn't know about?
Yes
Yes
Yes
This game was made during the Androgivania period, after the NES trilogy and Super Castlevania IV.
What purple hair?
Spaz 😎
Sorry, this looks *awesome* - but to me, Castlevania only really began with SOTN, because it was the first Castlevania game where the worst enemy wasn't the XXXXing *controls.*
Sounds more like a skill issue to me
@@gv82089 ...prior to SOTN, the PC maneuvered like a tank. He couldn't move while attacking. He couldn't jump onto stairs. He couldn't change *direction* mid-jump. The early Castlevania games were popular for their atmosphere, not their ease of play.
Someone hasn’t played Super Castlevania IV.
@@donkeykongisytpooping3002 And SCIV is more than just "superior" controls, though nothing on the level of Metroidvanias.
If nothing else, check it out on its own. It's a whole different monster all together.
@@kalaong
tl;dr ver. If you ever try one again, get used to the controls cause it's not as hard as you think.
--
Classicvanias are an example of what to do with limited controls. The movements and jumping are super clunky specifically to add to the challenge. By comparison, enemy placement and patterns are nothing too complex or OTT just enough to be manageable by what you have.
Compare Castlevania NES to Ninja Gaiden NES. Enemies in the latter are much faster, spawn quicker, attack patterns can be unfair; relatively speaking both games are about as difficult as each other yet Castlevania does so much with so little.
IMO I agree that Metroidvanias are simply better. Classicvanias still remain an acquired taste and can be enjoyable when pulled off right. When the person above said "skill issue" it's mostly true, except the skill in question is unnecessary with most games outside Castlevania anyway so who cares? I say if you're ever gonna try one again think of it more as a strategy platformer than twitch-reactionary ones. After understanding the controls, all it takes to beat the game is the right subweapon at the right situation.
Or play Super Castlevania IV which isn't as clunky and your basic offence options make subweapons next to meaningless. Like SOTN.

This game looks like it was made for the release of the playstation. Or, maybe it's their first time working with these specs.
Playstation quality xD this generation is screwed
well, this is a port of a game that originally came out in 1993, so
8:23 Awesome !
The sound doesn't really fit the more graphic eye candy arcade quality.
wait, there's time stop in this game?
There is also a healing item in the form of a green herb looking thing. It goes in the weapon slot like the others.
holy schit its mitsuru castlevania
7:42 I die many times
Esse CGI é melhor que o Castlevania Symphony of night..mas para por aí..o restante não se compara.
It's a completely different type of game so you shouldn't be comparing them in the first place
Score 465505
Sweet game
