What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“When we first approached the idea of creating a game around the Renfield film, it made perfect sense to create one in this genre. But for this type of game, we know how important Early Access is to involve players in the balancing of the core mechanics and polish the fun of being Renfield taking on the gangs and bosses of New Orleans. And as new content is added, we’ll make sure critical feedback is included as we drive towards a 1.0 release.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“While we don’t have a definitive timeline, we estimate Early Access to last 3-6 months but could be extended or shortened as needed depending on critical player feedback.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version of the game is planned to include a significant number of additional stages, enemies, bosses, weapons, upgrades, and “talents” once we hit 1.0 release. There will be periodic drops of meaningful new content in Early Access that we estimate to happen on a monthly basis.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“All core gameplay features and mechanics are in place. When we release into Early Access, the game will have 3 unique stages and 3 bosses with a plethora of available weapons, level upgrades, and talents to acquire.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We do not plan to increase the price of the game after Early Access. However we may release additional DLC post 1.0 release that is bundled with the main game at an increased cost but that is subject to change.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We know the community will be crucial to the success of the game, not only in providing critical feedback, but also to help support each other as we drive towards our full launch. Players can give feedback in our Steam forums, on our Discord at https://discord.com/invite/skybound, or any of our social media channels which you can find here: https://linktr.ee/skyboundent.”

Reviews

“That Renfield movie with Nic Cage has a Vampire Survivors-style tie-in game, and it has no right to be this good”
PC Gamer

“...it's a lot better than I expected and it's still a fun time-killer for auto-bullet hell fans who simply can't get enough”
GamesRadar

About This Game

Inspired by the events of the movie from Universal Pictures, Dracula has tasked you with a simple job - do everything he wants you to do for the rest of his immortal life. It's a demanding gig, but the benefits are great - immortality, mystic powers and a high-fiber diet of mostly insects.

Renfield: Bring Your Own Blood is a single-player adventure that combines the simplicity of one-touch gameplay with frenetic, room-based action for a new roguelite experience. With unique stages, dozens of enemies, diabolical bosses and enough weapons for a bug-powered bloody rampage, Renfield: Bring Your Own Blood shows you the ups and downs of being the lackey/employee of the most demanding boss in history - Dracula.

Battle horrifying and hilarious horrors


Fight, die, and resurrect while you obliterate dozens of enemies and multiple bosses in a visual explosion of style and charm, all inspired by the Universal Pictures film. You're not doing this for your personal glory, you're doing this to feed the boss and maybe get a promotion.

A gore-geous pixelated world


Power through a stylistic version of New Orleans with beautiful environmental objects, collectibles, and branching paths. Your choices will be the difference between career advancement or eternal unemployment.

Even more anarchy and armaments


Level up to be the best lackey/overworked employee. Equip yourself with dozens of upgradable weapons and pest-powered skills to become Dracula's very best (and only) employee. More gear and challenges will come over the next several months so your gameplay will always stay fresh.
