36 Awake | Vampire Survivors: Ode to Castlevania

_Antonio's Notes on Interdimensional Allies: Nathan Graves_ "We tried to get to know each other over a game of cards, briefly forgetting that all of our cards were magical. The resulting explosion destroyed our meeting place, but fortunately fried the nearby poultry."

With the unabashed nature of this game and love poured into it... this collab must have been a long standing dream, hope it was as fun to make for you as it will be for us to play.

Genuinely it's so cool seeing The Noble Demon working on an official Castlevania project so to speak

Circle of the Moon is a woefully underrated game, indeed

[@MTTKamikaze]

So amazing hearing THE theme from my very first Castlevania game and seeing my boy Nathan finally getting much deserved appreciation from devs after so many years. Thanks, Poncle! Stay awesome.

[@LloydZelos]

@@MTTKamikaze My very exact thoughts, man. CotM was my first Castlevania as well and my favourite one, so seeing this gem of a game receiving this amount of love after being highly ignored pleases me to no end. Thank you, Poncle&co.

[@NeoTrggrTheGammer]

was the first Castlevania game I ever owned...and my first GBA game...good memories, always happy to see love for Circle of the Moon...especially this song

[@JACKTOOOOOOOOOOOOONZ]

it's 1:30 AM down here but I'm Awake to hear this banger

[@myriadmediamusings]

Heck freaking yeah lets get that Circle of the Moon remix!

[@Brawlatron]

Only recently discovered The Noble Demon's work, and particularly fell in love with their Castlevania remixes. This is beyond wildest dreams coming true.

[@ReddFiveOhOh]

a 2nd Awake remix has hit the fandom

[@r.d.drowned9332]

She Nathan on my Graves till I Awake

[@RogueMage]

Circle of the Moon was my first and by far my favorite Castlevania, and it's always felt like a travesty that it was relegated to noncanon hell with no follow-up or exploration of its world. I hope we get to see its full roster of hunters in Ode to Castlevania! Nathan already shows up in the trailer, but I'd love to see Hugh and Morris playable as well.

[@カラカゾーイ]

[@shards-of-glass-man]

Circle of the Moon adherents, rise for our clan anthem

[@Krawurxus]

This song basically introduced me to Castlevania. Circle of the Moon was my first game of the series, back on the terrible old GBA. I still shudder thinking of how many AA batteries I burnt through completing it. This is the first track that comes on and it's still an absolute banger.

[@FlammieLL]

Yeah yeah, i'm awake, i'm awake, geez!

[@flaks450]

Another banger from Evelyn? AND IS AWAKE FROM CIRCLE OF THE MOON!? May the God bless her 🙏

[@skyblazer8732]

Good lord, y'all really outdid yourselves. First Contra, now Castlevania? What's next, Getsu Fuma Den? In any case, you've got this old Konami fan's undying love and respect for putting out such a wonderful, heartful "ode" to another beloved series. Keep up the great work.

[@DivaOTM]

damn i really wanna play as getsu fuma now that you mention it

[@syrelian]

I will lose my mind if there's a Getsu Fuma-den secret here, considering it was in Harmony of Despair(I have no actual nostalgia for the game I just like seeing weird niche references) Didn't GFD get a weird sequel somewhat recently actually?

[@skyblazer8732]

​@@syrelianYep! Undying Moon, a roguelike if I recall. Reminds me, I need to play it lol

[@DivaOTM]

i kinda hope getsu fuma will be a bonus(?) character like Simondo in OG, but i think the possibility is kinda low.

[@skyblazer8732]

​@@DivaOTM Guess we'll have to wait until the DLC drops. Either way, it's clear we're all in for a treat.

My *favorite* Castlevania song, now in Vampire Survivors?! I am so hyped.

[@tyrgannusgaming6657]

Circle of the Moon was honestly surprisingly good. While I was more than impressed by later GBA entries aesthetically like Aria of Sorrow, Circle of Moon's gameplay felt so nostalgic. Glad this track made it

[@eesedesesesrdtsuperjoshuab7907]

I may cry, Circle of the moon is my favourite castlevania game, awake is my favourite castlevania song and Nathan graves is my favourite castlevania character, finally he has returned

[@goats4life323]

Pretty accurate title considering im listening to this at 4am

[@snowyzorua]

Aw hell yeah CIRCLE OF THE MOON

[@MechagirlSachiko]

Circle of the Moon is the first Castlevania I played. Hearing its music in this absolute drug of a game is gonna make it even more addictive.

[@UltimaKeyMaster]

The best Circle of the Moon music. I'm in heaven. Or hell, I kinda prefer that with this series.

[@Kuribohcoast]

this had better be the background music whenever i take the Awake arcana from now on.....

[@witecatj6007]

Circle of the Moon may be one of the weaker games, but it's soundtrack was top shelf.

[@Chernobog2]

Circle of the Moon was always a bit of an oddity in the series: it's not set in Dracula's castle, stars a non-Belmont wielding a whip that isn't Vampire Killer, and despite being Konami's first attempt at making a successor to SotN it doesn't really follow the same design philosophy (and IGA was completely uninvolved). If it weren't for the fact that the vast majority of its soundtrack is made of remixes from previous games it might be easy to convince someone it's some kind of bootleg.

[@VGFriends]

No castlevania 64 lol 2 good songs they missed
