The great grandpappy of Castlevania is Kickstartering a new game, Bloodstained. They're doing this as a way to prove to their potential "main" funders that the interest is out there, and they're also pulling a "Shadowrun: Hong Kong" thing, where the primary purpose of the KS is to make the game better.
It took a whole four hours to get funded. I'm sure folks can do better It's up to 19k backers and triple their minimum amount as of this writing. They've also blown through 7 stretch goals, including getting David (Solid Snake) Hayter as the voice of the primary antagonist, local co-op, and an additional playable character.
This is a separate company from Konami (not a bad thing, when you think about it), so it's a new setting/universe, etc. 2.D style, a la Symphony of the Night. He's also brought along several of his old CV buddies.
Looks promising ^_^ Go check out the video, if nothing else. Dude has a sense of humor.
Lame quote of the day, courtesy of their FAQ :
"WHAT IS A BACKER? ...
A wonderful pile of sweetness!"
