Game Description:
Castlevania is an action platformer for the Nintendo Entertainment System. Known in Japan as Akumajou Dracula ("Demon Castle Dracula"), this game is about a clan of vampire hunters known as the Belmonts hunting down and killing Dracula himself.
You play as Simon Belmont, and fight your way through Dracula's castle (known in English as "Castlevania", a portmanteau of Castle and Transylvania, har har). You have many weapons at your disposal. Your main weapon, the Vampire Killer whip has somehow been passed down through the Belmont clan for generations. You can get power ups for that (essentially changing it from a leather whip, to a short chain, and longer chain whip). You also have many sub-weapons, which require hearts to use. These include a knife, throwing axe, holy water, cross boomerang and stopwatch (which freezes all enemies on screen). You can only throw one of these in a certain period of time, unless you get the "II" and "III" powerups.

Hack Description:
This is a sprite mod that makes Simon appear more like his Super Smash Bros Ultimate redesign. His sprite has been completely redone, along with the sprites for the axe and crucifix. All the new sprites in this mod belong to hansungkee on DeviantArt.
Version 1.2 Changes: Several sprites have been changed after another sprite sheet was found with Simon's weapons. The sprites changed include the Whip, Dagger, Holy Water, Stopwatch, Wall Chicken, Rosary, and Invincibility Potion. The Axe sprite has also been fixed.
Version 1.5 Changes: An issue with the stopwatch has been fixed, as the old sprite appeared in later stages rather than the new one. Along with that, Simon's back sprite from the opening has been modified to fit the rest of his sprite set.
