Vampire Crawlers
When Vampire Survivors came out I played it endlessly, like many of us did.
I thought it was brilliant, but I also thought it was somewhat of a happy accident. A one-hit wonder that would set up developer Luca Galante (poncle) for life, but never be repeated. Harper Lee, if you will.
Dear Luca: I apologize.
The just-released demo for Vampire Crawlers: The Turbo Wildcard From Vampire Survivors is deliriously good. Ridiculously, unbelievably good.
Like VS, it's wacky, and the atmosphere both calls back to Vampire Survivors feel and speed, yet also feels unique in its own right.
Sound effects are reused. Lots of code is reused. And yet it feels entirely fresh.
Spectacular.
Luca, I sincerely apologize once more. It wasn't an accident. You are, in fact, a genius.
