Castlevania Bloodlines Beta

Does anbody know more about this beta:
http://www.vgmuseum.com/mrp/2/bl-beta.htm

Was it ever dumped, are more screens oder videos available ?

Damn, that zeppelin stage looks great. I loved the steampunk aspect of Bloodlines, I wish they'd put more of that in the series.

What Gecko said. I wish someone hacked it into the full game though, and touched up the palette while they're at it.

I´ve found a guy, who said he buyed the proto years ago @ ebay:

Maybe "Simon_Belmont" dumps it someday or uploads a video @ youtoube.

What do you mean, "steampunk aspect"? That game is set in the early 1900s and that blimp was likely in the German level according to the symbol on it.

TARARETARDEDNUMBERS is a penis head and should just upload the ROM like a normal person.

It was set in the early 20th century at the end of the Victorian era, and a lot of things were obviously romantized like all those cogs in the munitions factory. That's steampunk enough for me.

Has anyone a pic of the AU version of Castlevania Bloodlines? Apparently they thought the European (read: German) censored version was lame, so they went with the US version instead.

^^I've seen both versions on the shelvs in equal quantities ("Bloddlines" and "A New Beginning" or whatever the censored version is called). The Bloodlines artwork if a full-case affair, no Megadrive/Genesis sidebar, but the censored one has a MD sidebar, from memory. You should look it up though because I'm probably wrong.

I remember that Zepplin screen from a gaming mag back in the day.

And I was under the impression that this game took place around 1918, the first to be set in a "modern" era.

I'm still don't know how the games set in the future work. I'm pretty confident that vampires vs. stuff like anti-matter weapons or plasma guns is really a one sided battle.

Well giant cogs spinning is obviously just there because it's a game, I'm sure they had cogs at the time...

I think all the undead stuff is a bit more significant than cogs there for you to jump across.

Looks like the .5 beta with the Zeppelin and steelworks level had finally been dumped

Is there a possibility that someone will add those levels back to a rom hack of the original Bloodlines?

"You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to SEGA-Jorge again."

I make a video showing some cool details and comparisons
