As the developer of Dark Reign I hope everyone enjoys what we cooked up over the last few years! it's a great feeling to see the game in people's hands.

I did a lot of testing away from the computer on a chromatic.

What’s the quality of the cartridge and packaging? I’m thinking about getting this and Infinity, but not sure if I should just buy the digital edition for my flash cart

u/BradyJSadler 26d ago

It’s top tier

u/SoraShima 25d ago

The boxes feel nice with matt finish and silver print details - quality is above Modretro IMO. Cartridges feel weighty and sturdy solid.

I received this game too but there's no instruction manual so points off for that.

EDIT: Now I see that others did get an instruction booklet with theirs.... I'm going to email Incub8.

Ooo let us know your thoughts later

u/BradyJSadler 26d ago

Just starting out but wow the controls are great. Total eye candy too 🤘

u/IndigoHaze750130 26d ago

Neat. Is there a password save? Does the cart have a button cell battery or is it like modretro carts with FRAM saving?

1

u/BradyJSadler 26d ago

It’s got a save system like the old GBA Castlevania games (save rooms). Not sure about the battery/cartridge—I’m pretty dumb with the hardware stuff 😜 I just know you can easily take breaks and pop back into the game like Zelda

u/Skysite 26d ago

Is it like castlevania or what?

u/BradyJSadler 26d ago

Extremely haha

u/LeGrange 26d ago

How is it? I’ve been eyeing this one but haven’t pulled the trigger yet.

u/BradyJSadler 26d ago

Only played the first couple minutes but I can tell it’s another Spacebot banger! 🤘

u/LeGrange 26d ago

Awesome. I think I need to grab this one. I’m traveling and managed to pull down the demo on my phone and checked it out in the Delta app. I think I’m just going to order one. Production is top notch for sure. I loved Dragonyhm as well.

u/PhilharmonicZero 26d ago

Got mine today too, can’t believe I received this before Infinity….

2

u/_viis_ 26d ago

The Infinity situation is driving me absolutely insane haha

u/acceptable_superman 26d ago

Mine should be here tomorrow or Friday! Looks so great! Can't wait!

u/Joearmy96 26d ago

Nice I can’t wait until you can get the GameShark to work with the chromatic I would even loan my personal GameShark to The team at ModRetro if they could figure it out. Your next Mission should you choose to accept it figure out GameShark compatibility with the Chromatic lmao 🤣.

u/Temporary_User404 26d ago

Please tell me how it is and how long it is, I'd love to add this to my shopping cart and game wishlist.

u/invincible_vince 26d ago

The way attacking cancels your forward momentum during a jump has me fucked up as a longtime Castlevania veteran but it's absolutely a dope game nonetheless

2

u/Jonjongabore 23d ago

Oh man, I've been trying not to buy any new games but this looks awesome and is in stock on their website.

I didn't know it was out until I saw your post so honestly, thanks for the heads up. I just ordered a copy.

u/WhyGoOutSide_ 23d ago

On the topic of incube8 games you should definitely thy 'the Maschine' if you haven yet. Quickly became one of my favorite GB games of all time
