I doubt anyone else is going to play it, so I may have to.

Announcing a new stream project for 2025! I will beat EVERY CASTLEVANIA GAME. Including all the weird spinoffs and ports I can dig up. Sometimes 1CC or deathless if I'm feeling feisty. YT video retrospectives to follow as well. Will be a massive but hopefully very fun undertaking!
