New Battle Princess Madelyn trailer shows off the game’s updated stages
The developers at Causal Bit Games are still working hard on Battle Princess Madelyn, their modern-day homage to the retro stylings of Capcom’s Super Ghouls N Ghosts, and earlier this week they unveiled a brand new trailer featuring “updated stages, collecting weaponry, and armor shards from the cursed chests.”
The developer also posted a new update to Battle Princess Madelyn’s Kickstarter campaign, detailing a few more changes and additions that have been made to the game in the last month:
The final boss was redrawn and redesigned a few times. Nothing was feeling epic enough. Following the story too close wasn’t cutting it, it started as a rival sorceress girl the same age and size as Maddi, but the first half of the fight felt too plain and samey. I worked with Maddi a few times on how the last boss should look overall. There was a giant zombie woman head, dragon snake things, and I can’t even remember what else now. This one has been redone over and over for the better part of a year. But finally I got a clear head about it, and we sat down and came up with something amazing! We aren’t going to show that obviously but we’re not that far away from you seeing it yourselves!
Creative Director Christopher Obritsch also discussed rather scary-sounding heath issue towards the end of the post and everyone at Warp Zoned wishes him a speedy recovery.
Battle Princess Madelyn will be released sometime soon (but we don’t know exactly when) for the PC, PS4, Switch, Vita, Wii U, and Xbox One.

New Battle Princess Madelyn trailer shows off the game’s first level
Casual Bit Games continues to plug away at Battle Princess Madelyn, their side-scrolling homage to 16-bit classics like Super Ghouls N Ghosts and Wonder Boy 3: The Dragon’s Trap, and development is nearly complete on the first half of the game. To mark this milestone, the developer has released a new trailer highlighting the game’s animated introduction and gameplay from the first chapter.
Battle Princess Madelyn is currently in development for the PC, PS4, Switch, Vita, Wii U, and Xbox One. The game was originally expected to be released in Early 2018, but rather than announce a new launch date, Casual Bit Games has said that it’ll be done when it’s done.
