Gothic Castle is definitely one of the more visually pretty avoidances out there. Den's knack for production value and making his games look aesthetically pleasing remains as consistent as ever, and it follows alongside a pretty fun and enjoyable avoidance.
Clocking in at just under 2 minutes, there's a fun variety of attacks to spend your time with as well as arena-switching which keeps the avoidance feeling very fast-paced. Right off the bat as you're scaling the tower, you'll get a pretty good idea of what you're in for. The attacks are primarily RNG based with a couple of pattern'ish attacks thrown in for good measure, and balance-wise everything feels mostly good. I particularly liked the cut-away segment which was very nicely synced to the song.
I had a small gripe with the start of the avoidance in regards to the climb, in that it felt quite full-jump heavy which also lends itself to limiting your dodging capabilities after your second fulljump. Perhaps a tower with more landing spots or options would've been more ideal. The curving attack near the end in combination with the shaking also threw me off a bit, although perhaps it was in combination with the classic end-of-avoidance-nerves. Hard to say but I imagine that'll differ greatly from player to player.
All in all though it's a really fun fight and a beautiful looking one at that. I understand Den had worries about people not playing it due to the inherent nature of avoidance games, but I think he did a great job with making an avoidance that can appeal to not just avoidance players but also a wider audience of fangame players. As always, I look forward to Den's next game.

I usually avoid avoidance games, because im way better at needles, but this one caught my eye and i decided to try it out. Took me a while, but I would definetly reccomend, even for people who avoid these types of games. Amazing graphics and fun attacks make this game one of my favorite avoidance fights.

Wasn't a huge fan of the yellow knives attack right before the first platforms appear and the attack after the 6 diagonal lines but everything else was really fun. Good avoidance.
