I WANT ATTRACT MODE AVAILABLE JUST LIKE NESICA !

PLEASE !!!

It will look so much better than just the "wall paper" that it is right now. It will make the game 100% Arcade and alive, even if you don't play it.

It will just look freaking cool, that's it :D

When it's done =P. We're giving Gryzor plenty of time to compose a great soundtrack.

This.
It would also possibly help newcomers understand the mechanics better, if the gameplay is good

I'm not asking for anything, i'm just asking for the attract mode just like the Nesica Live, so then we have a full complete arcade version at home.

Details :D

Blackbird,
today I wanted to play CC:WI in vertical orientation, but noticed that the image quality isn't all that great. Is there any chance that Yotsuba could add some more screen filters? I'd be perfectly happy with simple scanlines or RGB masks like MAME provides them (those are basically transparent PNGs that are overlayed over the screen).

I'm going to preview some upcoming DLC content for CC:WI during this week's livestream (Wednesday). Mostly the official announcement for the Arranged Soundtrack. Hope to see you there =D.

Are GOG customers going to get access to the DLC?

@MM: Yes, we will release the DLC for GOG as well. It might work a little differently since I think GOG does not usually sell DLC, but we will find a way for customers to get it without using Steam.

@Bonus: The livestream will be at 8PM EST over on http://www.twitch.tv/degigames

Blackbird is now on Twitch. You can listen to a selection of the arranged OST if you join in.

Announcements were: superplays (not from Yotsubane himself, though), arranged OST, and high-quality arcade CC flyer you can take to a professional printer.

Awesome, I'd been wondering if this would ever happen. I missed this part - will this be in the form of youtube videos, replay files, a DVD, ?

It sounded like in-game replays with overlayed commentary (translated from Japanese).

The soundtrack sounded really good. Blackbird did a demo with the stage 5 boss, overlaying it with the arranged track. Sounded really great. Also, he made a remark that Yotsubane is working closely with the composer, to ensure that the music matches the action on the screen. Overall, sounds very promising.

In case you missed the sneak preview stream, here's an image recapping the major announcements (and officially confirming the arranged soundtrack you already know about ;))

The demos will take the form of commentated replays.

Are Superplays full run or just some cut from specific moments of the games ?

Most likely full runs. It's the DLC I know least about since Yotsubane is working on it personally.

Looking forward to the superplays. It's hard to find any high scoring videos of Type I or III users in Original mode (last I checked), so I'm hoping it won't be another Type II run. :P

GOG has plenty of games with DLC, so there shouldn't be any issue there.



Anyway, I'm in for this on day 1, unquestionably. Hopefully, it also throws in an attract mode, as well.

I don't know if this is a little bug or intended, but here it is anyway: if you time out Diabolos' (stage 4 Boss) first form, he goes to the next form without throwing that really hard to dodge pink bullet attack at you like the previous bosses do. Furthermore, his next form (replacing cannons) doesn't seem to time out at all (or it takes A LOT to do so).

Is an attract mode out of the question?

,Ooooh. Can we choose arranged soundtrack from options menu to play ingame? I mean, this should be necessary for entire thing to be called a DLC.
