Holy shit! It's a shooter with the same graphical stylings of JoJo's Venture! Seriously though, looks kinda homebrew, but *shrug* when have graphics been a serious issue?

I didn't find the video at that link; but I found it here:

http://forum.shmup.com/viewtopic.php?t=3525

This is GREAT news, as with a Gameshark CDX, or DC-X, you can play PAL games on the DC!

Whatever happened to that DC shmup being developed by one of our own forum members? I can't remember the name of it, but I know the member was working on it.

Thanks for that update qatmix! :D With all these homebrew games, and new Naomi games, the DC will no doubt go down in video game history as the console that outlived it's lifespan the longest! :shock:

Ooo, definitely looks interesting. I look forward to the Demo. With any luck by the time you release it I'll have figured out how to get a burned disc to work on my Dreamcast. Damned Beats of Rage doesn't seem to want to play.

Looks ok, but "billiion bullet" shooters aren't my fave type of shmup....but I might get it anyway, DC shooters are worth collecting.

Its VERY VERY average, and needs a lot of work....

- your player sprite doesn't look all that interesting and the movement is non-existant just looks like its just floating about stupidly.

- the enemies aren't very varied

- the bullet patterns definatly need work

- the music is 5.5/10

That cutesy hori shooter looks far more interesting and polished...

Looks playable enough in my book, I quite liked that music myself.

Yeah, Character looks a bit ''dead in the water'' reminds me of gunbird 2 quite a bit.

Only critique are: hit spot potential to be ginormous and enemy variation.

Backgrounds had some nice isometric styling.
