Looks awesome.

 

[NastyBook]

Looks better than Koji Igarashi project.

Time Traveling Gaffers with their insider information.

 

[RM8]

I honestly don't like how it looks. Lacks uniformity and they're downright abusing the use of lighting, not unlike the "put a ton of bloom lighting in everything" fad of some years ago. I'm not sure if I can even put it in words :x I'm still buying it if it's a good game, though!

But come on, it's true. This game looks way better than The Last Guardian!

[red720]

Hadn't heard of this before, it looks great.

I've been staring at those GIFs for two minutes while listening to the Kirkhope or Wise section of this week's Bombcast.

 

[JDSN]

Well this looks great, I have a little extra cash since the IGA project looks shady, where can I fund this? Its like a Berserk videogame.

Filming inside castles don't afford you much lighting.

 

[More_Badass]

Looks like Slain might be getting equippable armor

Some big Slain! news and update coming soon!

 

[BuffetChamp]

Will double dip for Steam and X1. Looks really good.

 

[DarkTom]

I will probably buy it on Wii U. It looks great and I haven't played a "Castlevania game" since a long time.

Devs have compared the game more to Altered Beast and Ghosts 'n Goblins, rather than Castlevania.

 

[More_Badass]

New stuff from Screenshot Saturday

 

[AsfaeksBR]

That last gif looks stunning.
Will wait for the Vita version, day 1!

 

[Nintendojitsu]

Looks more interesting than what Igarashi is making.

 

[-Digits-]

I sort of forgot about this, but now I'm excited again. I love the look of this game.

 

[Zero²]

Looks more interesting than what Igarashi is making.

And it will come to the WiiU which is good for me

 

[xXBetter Off DadXx]

Will most definitely be buying this on WiiU! Looks great!

 

[blu]

I hope Slain is featured in some E3 reel this year and gets proper exposure. Day1 on the wiiU.

 

[Shredderi]

Damn it looks good.

 

[More_Badass]

New stuff

 

[Verger]

I really like the look of this game. I'm not sure how to describe it. Would it be considered more of a "pixel" look? Or just a stylized "sprite" aesthetic?

Wish we still could have animated avatars, because this:

I said wow.

 

[Lux R7]

Whoa, count me in

 

[Morrigan Stark]

Wish we still could have animated avatars

Trust me, you don't.

 

[Eppy Thatcher]

May have to dip for the vita version... looks like a perfect lunch hour rush game!

More gifs of fighting and such... the gore is hilariously creative. Lots of nice little touches. Props to the dev team!

 

[8bitForLife]

wish I had known about this as I would of donated.

 

[Pancakes R Us]

Wow, what a stunning looking game. Gonna subscribe so I can remember to hopefully pick it up sometime in future.

 

[Cyber Caesar]

This is one sexy game. I'll check it out for sure.

Hi guys, Nick from Wolfbrew here.

Just made a little Kickstarter update so thought I'd copy and paste a the most important part of it here!

''In the last few days we set our Steam page live. See here http://store.steampowered.com/app/369070 so wishlist us and share with your friends. Ask a question on the forum and our programmer, Asa will reply.
If you check out the second video on the Steam page there is also a preview of what will be one track from the original Slain! soundtrack. Metal huh?''

For full update go here...https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1348640000/slain/posts/1235569

 

[metsallica]

Make sure you "watch" that second video! Music is sounding AWESOME.

Thank you for working on this neat-looking game.

Had to quote this one.

 

[Mr_D_]

Hi guys,

We are excited to release details of what will be the most insane metal soundtrack game has ever seen. Curt Victor Bryant (formally of Celtic Frost) will be recording the full Slain! soundtrack.

Also, here is a new trailer!

I really love how this game looks. The style is just amazing and all the violence and blood fits with it so well.

Is it true this game is only being made by two people?

 

[Pinky]

Looks so good. This and Bloodstained. Gimme!

 

[Mr_D_]

Yes! And 1 extra (me) on the marketing/pr/publishing side.

Here are the brains behind it:

[Kyleripman]

This looks superb...the music is perfect.

 

[erawsd]

This is one of those times I'm so glad I random clicked on a thread. This looks amazing.

 

[Head.spawn]

I fucking love Celtic Frost; Tryptykon as well.

In there day one bro, cool looking game.

 

[Unbound By Death]

Must be the first time since the early 90s that a game like this piqued my interest.

Those animations, hmmmm.

Feeling those Gods, Shadow of the beast and Deliverance vibes all over.

How come I only heard of this game now? I woulda totally backed it :c

Help us spread the word! We are making as much noise as we can

 

[zackmorris]

So this got bumped to early next year for console and fall for PC?

 

[Sanctuary]

I don't remember "gory" hack-and-slash games being that prevalent. This just looks like a gory Castlevania game; which is fine by me.
Why does it look like a 240p game though?

 

[Hoya Destroyer]

This game looks very impressive. I love some blood and guts too.
The last platformer I bought was Shantae: Riskys Revenge. Though it was a good game, it was too easy. I hope Slain is challenging.
