info

0.37b11 [Howie Cohen]

Bugs:

Colors of the first enemies you encounter are wrong. This may not be a bug but if you compare this one with both PlayChoice-10 and NES versions of Castlevania, the enemies don't have the same colors at all. This should be compared with the real cabinet. Nomax / StephenH (ID 01097)
