The first powerpoll month has gone by, using your Development Points, I pushed CvRL forward and now it is a lot more usable, stable and... cool!

And for March, Expedition won the Powerpoll with 35.9% of votes!

Hello all!

CastlevaniaRL is now available for windows computers without a Java Runtime Environment!

Now you can play the game without installing Java, as it includes a self extracting temporary VM.

The only downside for this version is the unability to save games, that will be fixed on next one.
