Introduction
Maria Renard's Revenge is a fan-made Castlevania-inspired outing developed for Commodore Amiga hardware.
Created by homebrew developer Domkid using Earok's Scorpion Engine, the project is currently distributed in beta and targets classic Amiga systems as well as modern mini-console hardware.
Background and platform details
Maria Renard is an established character in Castlevania lore, first appearing in Dracula X: Rondo of Blood (1993) and later featuring in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (1997).
Domkid's Maria Renard's Revenge is an unofficial, non-commercial fan game that leverages the Scorpion Engine, a development framework by Earok that has seen use across recent Amiga homebrew projects.
The beta build requires an Amiga 1200 with at least 1 MB Fast RAM, the Amiga CD32, or the A500 Mini.
The A500 Mini is Retro Games' modern re-creation of the classic Amiga experience and can run many homebrew titles alongside licensed classics.
Gameplay and project description
According to the project's page, players control Maria Renard, a young vampire huntress distantly related to the Belmont clan.
The beta features four levels in which Maria navigates hazardous environments and battles monsters, with a bird companion that provides protective support during combat and traversal.
Availability and community context
The release is distributed directly by the developer as a downloadable beta for Amiga formats.
As with other homebrew efforts, this is an unofficial fan production and not an authorized release from Konami, the rights holder for the Castlevania franchise.
This effort is part of a wider community trend: alongside Domkid's Amiga beta, modders have produced hacks for other Castlevania titles—such as a community mod that adds Maria as a playable character in Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin on Nintendo DS—illustrating ongoing fan interest in expanding the character's playable appearances.
Why it matters
While major Castlevania re-releases and remasters appear on platforms like Nintendo Switch and the eShop, community projects like Maria Renard's Revenge keep legacy hardware and homebrew development active.
For fans of the character and collectors of Amiga homebrew, Domkid's beta offers a playable, platform-specific tribute to a popular Castlevania supporting character.
Where to find it
The beta is available to download from the developer's project page.
Interested players should consult the release notes for compatibility and installation instructions appropriate to Amiga 1200 setups, Amiga CD32, or the A500 Mini.
