Dreamcast, the Indie Game Maker's Dream

[Kosheh]

so i think it would be fun if some one made a team(or several) to make some indie games for it since sega has stopped support of it its all good and legal.i personally would love to make an indie game for it if i had a team what do you guys think would you make an indie game for it if you had a team for it. and what type of games would you make.

But...they have.

There's Last Hope.

There's Wind and Water Puzzle Battles.

There's Pier Solar HD, releasing later this year.

...there's a lot actually.

The thing is, it's...not really. It's kind of a legal grey area - and the indie games you do see pop up appear in specialist shops, provided in only the dozens by the publishers themselves.

It's also kinda difficult to make a game from the ground up without a full devkit (which uh, good luck getting one in 2014) of some sort and little understanding of the DC's internals, especially one that plays like a retail or indie quality experience (like, you're not gonna get a DC port of Skullgirls anytime soon)




of course if there's a strapping young indie dev here who can confirm that yes indeed, i can port my unity code into something readily usable on the dreamcast, let me know and i'll get coding asap
