Castlemania

This is an unlicensed Freeware Castlevania fangame where you can play as a vampire hunter (Eric Lecarde) or Dracula himself. This project is not affiliated in any way with KONAMI, the current owners of Castlevania franchise.

How to play:

This is a competitive two-player game only. Currently, only the host can play as the vampire hunter, while the player who joins the match can only play as Dracula. 
The goal for either player is to defeat their opponent. The vampire hunter gets 5 lives, while Dracula only gets 1. There's also a timer that shows the total match time, which can be your tie-breaker if you swap roles between rounds.

Internet

The game will attempt to open port 45387 (TCP/UDP) by using UPNP, which is available on most modern home routers. If it succeeds, your public IP will be shown to you so you can send it to the person you wish to play with (your IP is hidden by default, so don't worry if you're streaming). If this fails, you can attempt to open the required port manually by configuring your router.

You can also play using VPN solutions like Hamachi by hosting on the local network and searching for the match or joining via the Internet option which allows you to type in the IP manually.
