    Daniel Horvath aka 108stars, who did the pixel art for Pier Solar, interviewed me the other day for NexGam. The interview was conducted in english but there's also a german translation (as the website's in german, obiously). A couple new details emerge. You can read it here:
    http://www.nexgam.de/Dreamcast-Saturn/Im-Gespraech-mit-Retro-Sumus.html

    Pages 1-2 are in german, 3-4 in english.

    Hope you like it! :)

    I was wondering if anyone has actually listened to the podcast... xD

    Just in case, you can listen to it here:
    http://retrosumus.com/2015/12/dreamcast-junkyard-dreampod-ameba-xenocider/

    And if you speak spanish, we talk Ameba and Xenocider here as well:
    http://retrosumus.com/2015/12/entrevista-rock-and-rol-games/

    :)

    What's the big news? Well, as you may know, Ameba will be released for the Saturn as well. But the new details are: we are releasing the game in a cardboard box similar to the classic japanese ones which included game+cart. Why? Because we are using a custom cart as well! :D

    Most probably yes, though it's not locked at the moment.
    The cart will serve as both security-bypassing and as a very useful memory extra we will need for some very specific things we have in mind.

    Dev Diaries #06 - The Morning After

    Someone just passed away. Someone close to our main character Hugo. He returns home feeling devastated, but also somewhat relieved. It’s the morning after, and he has a new lead on the killer. His friend’s death may have not been in vain.

    Just wanted to thank you for continuing to make software for my little white box. It is exciting to still see new game development after all this time.
