Fan developers have a long history of porting games to other systems, including making demakes of titles. One series that is particularly known for this is Castlevania, with instances of ports to the Genesis and SNES being common and we are about to see a new case of it.
Castlevania: Order of Shadows is not a well known entry in the series, and was released on Java-based phones back in 2007, and like many mobile games from that era, it had issues with poor visuals and lacklustre controls. Now Game Boy Color homebrew developer Elvies has ported the game to Nintendo’s famous handheld under the revised title Castlevania: Order of Shadows Golden Belmont.
Elvies has stated that the game has been “reworked from the ground up with [a] re-imagined story that aligns the timeline with Legends, Resurrection and the original Order script.” In addition, this version features an unlockable “Sister Mode”, Konami code support, six boss battles, an in-game shop. Furthermore, when inserted into a monochrome Game Boy, there i a dedicated music player.
