Saber Rider & The Star Sheriffs - Non-Interactive Rolling Demo of Cancelled Dreamcast Kickstarter
2I hope you are all healthy and safe wherever you are in the World right now and whatever challenges you are facing.
I'm a huge fan of the Dreamcast and long time viewers of my channel will know I tend to support independent game development (as well as releases of Beta's & Prototypes etc) through platforms like GoFundMe, IndieGoGo & Kickstarter.
One such game that I backed was back in 2016-2017. This was a run'n'gun game based on an 80's cartoon & looked like a fun Contra style game set in the cartoon universe. It was also set to feature 1st person Mech sections.
The developers were aiming to release on Dreamcast (and PC Engine & 3DS I think) & everything looked promising. They provided regular updates, gained the official licence, shared sprite art etc & released 2 demos. The first was this one - a non-interactive slideshow to show what the game would look like (this is shown here) and then a playable 1 level demo (see my other videos).
However over time the updates dried up and the game was quietly cancelled.
A shame as it looked like it had a ton of potential - think a Sci Fi Sunset Riders.
As always if you enjoy this video let me know. As always this is running on original hardware in this case a PAL Dreamcast. Also let me know if there are particular games or systems you'd like to see.
