Homebrew developer Kaffeeware has released a playable v0.1 demo of a SNES port of Konami's Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, originally released in 1997 on PlayStation and Saturn. The developer says the conversion is being done "by eye" without AI assistance, though they are looking at decompilation sources to improve accuracy. Kaffeeware intends to keep native SNES specs but expects to need a larger ROM size to fit the full game. The demo has drawn attention online for how polished it already looks at this early stage.
