This page serves as a list of known glitches in the game - notable glitches may get their own pages later on down the line.

Shiftline

Shiftline is a glitch that allows you to drop out the side of a room instead of moving to the next screen.

Reverse Shiftline

Infinity Glitch

The Infinity Glitch involves a convoluted series of steps in the Underground Caverns which results in Alucard being able to collect items without them being removed from the map. He can pick up weapons, Life Max Ups, or other pickups, then leave the screen and come back, and the item will have respawned. The exact circumstances that allow this trick to work are unknown, and have mostly been determined through experimentation. The issue may be related to filling Entity slots and not having slots available for necessary game entities. This merits further study, especially with the decomp.
