Last month, Inti Creates announced and released Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon, an 8-bit spinoff for Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, which is currently in development. Two weeks after the game’s release, developer Inti Creates took to Twitter to reveal that Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon has sold 100,000 copies.
The tweet, which you can check out below, also features a new piece of Miriam artwork by Yuji Natsume, the game’s lead artist:

Bloodstained Curse of the Moon follows the journey of Zangetsu as he tries to beat a demon in a dangerous castle. The game is clearly inspired by the NES Castlevania titles, but does attempt to build upon them with more dynamic environments and an ally system. Inti Creates has previously gone into detail about those new aspects of gameplay.
Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon is currently available on 3DS, PC, PS4, PS Vita, and Nintendo Switch, and releases later today on Xbox One.
