Iv'e had it pre-ordered for ages.

Hi

Thanks for the reminder !

It'd look good in my collection, next to Fast Striker, Sturmwind and NEO XYX

EDIT: some other games are on their way to the DC

Elysian Shadows

Alice's Mom's Rescue

Elansar and Philia

SLaVE

Cheers, Magic Sam

Hi

I'm definitely looking forward to playing Hypertension: Harmony of Darkness on DC !

Games from Retro Sumus also look great, and Dynamite Dreams could be fun too.

EDIT: I don't remember whether this one has been mentioned before, but Reblobed is going to be awesome ! You can even play an old version on Pandora

Cheers, Magic Sam

I think re-blobbed won't be hitting the ouya any time soon. I'll likely buy re-blobbed for Dc, hyper tension harmony of darkness and dux 2. Duranik have also teased a new game and sturmwind was ace. Ghost blade will be fun.

Hi

Just pre-ordered SLaVE from Isotope SoftWorks !

Let's see what these guys can do with a DooM source port.

Cheers, Magic Sam

If they reach 200,000 they will port it to dreamcast. It's unlikely they will hit that number.

I messaged them on facebook about having a dreamcast port from the get go or at least on a lower tier.

So I thoroughly enjoyed the Ghost blade. Iv'e won it with 2 of the three selectable player ships.
It is a tad easy though and there is a simple trick to beating some end of level boss's.
More play testing on the boss's might have caught this.

Still if you like shmups and love Dreamcast then I think you'll want this game.
Anybody who is proficient at shmups will kick this games ass. No hard mode is a strange omission, perhaps it would have required more development time;
the game was long delayed as it was.
I really enjoyed the game but was left wanting more, more play modes, more options, which is perhaps a testament to how much fun i had playing the ghost blade.

Some where in-between the keystrokes this became a mini review...

I'm selling an extra copy of the ghost blade limited edition. It's still sealed.

Hi all !

Sorry for grave digging an old thread

@Wrath Of Khan : thanks for your Ghost Blade Review !

On a side note, I found out about Retro Sumus' Xenocider only a few days ago.

Opinions ?

Cheers, Magic Sam (still waiting for my SLaVE copy...)

Yes, I'm looking forward to Xenocider. I hope they can pull it off- a crowd-funding campaign is imminent apparently. There's a backlog of DC games I want to buy as I'm unemployed. When I find work there will be a splurge.

Hi all

@Wrath Of Khan : I just received my three presents

Ghost Blade is definitely a great game, with nice graphics and catchy tunes !

Battle Crust, though less impressive and more retro-ish, is equally charming

I'm only slightly disappointed by Wolflame at the moment...

Cheers, Magic Sam
