Sky Curser shmup Jamma PCB kit for possible 2015 release...

Post by PC Engine Fan X! »

Got a cool email alert from the always informative Arcade Heroes site and it contained some new info for a possible brand new standard Jamma powered PCB kit by the name of "Sky Curser" that runs on a 320 x 240 low-res 15.7kHz arcade monitor setup.

Looks like about 24 or so PCB kits will be made/sold in it's entirety (assuming if it does reach actual PCB kit production).

Still cool nevertheless to learn of a brand new arcade PCB based shmup title being developed right here in the USA of all places.

Makes me wonder just how much will a Sky Curser PCB kit will cost upon it being available for purchase on day one of debut.

If there are only 24 kits being sold it won't even make it to an arcade lol.

What's with indie scrolling shooters being made recently that look halfway decent? Looks like it could use more enemy types and a little more speed, though.

Like BulletMagnet pointed out, the developer has already opened his own thread for the game, so let's keep the discussion there.
No matter how good a game is, somebody will always hate it. No matter how bad a game is, somebody will always love it.
