Castlevania - Aria of Sorrow

Terrarian
Hello, I'm new in here, but actually a really hardcore Terraria player from China.

I'm here to share a world I created 3 years ago.
I had copied (or "moved") the whole castle from Castlevania - Aria of Sorrow, the most popular GBA Castlavania game, to Terraria. So this is a world for those who are a fan of this Castlavania game.
My purpose was to reconstruct the exact same castle from AoS in Terraria. So all I did was trying my best to build the exact same scenario from AoS.

The project took me 3 months, from Aug.31st 2014 to Oct.30th 2014. The main castle is 1200x840 tiles, while the Chaotic Realm is 264x216 tiles. The whole castle was made of around 10 million tiles.

Note that the project was built in the 1.2 verson. I didn't rebuild the castle after ver 1.3, so no new blocks or walls from ver 1.3 will be found in this world, though they might be more suitable for the purpose of reconstruct.

Here are some demo views

Chaotic Realm:

The castle is 100% complete. I just didn't take a screenshot for every realm of the castle.

There are some weak points:
- The whole castle is manually walled, so no lights will be able to get in. In order to provide lights, I had to put many lamps and torches throughout the castle, which cannot be found in the original game.
- No mobs can be found, obviously, since the castle is full of manual walls.
- Some special mechanics from the original game can't be seen here.

Other than what's listed above, the castle is extremely like the original one from Castlevania AoS, including game walkthrough.
I have put a chest on every location that has an item, soul or gold from the original game. So if you create a whole new softcore character and enter the world, you will be able to go through the castle in the exact same way as you can do in the original game. During the walkthrough, you will get Cloud in a Bottle (for double jump), Jellyfish Diving Gear (for entering water), Bat Wings (for flying), even a Temple Key to open the gate to the Chaotic Realm.

Hope you like this world, 'cause I'm a real fan of Castlevania and Terraria!

It's legit. I just plunked it down into my Worlds folder and went to town on it. It's pretty decent. Check it out! I absolutely loved Aria of Sorrow as well.
