Oh my goddess, a blog!
Published on 2018-aug-19, last updated 2018-aug-24
Decided to open this in order to keep track of homebrew news. Don't expect there to be a new blog entry whenever some new article goes up or the like. In particular, what prompted me to start this is that this month turned out to be packed and I didn't want this to get lost to time.
In the span of about a week we had three releases:
- 2018-08-08: Little Medusa
- 2018-08-13: Rad Rhino
- 2018-08-14: Tanglewood
Two of those (Little Medusa and Tanglewood) are commercial cartridge releases. Tanglewood is probably the most well known one (thanks to its Kickstarter back then), and it also launched on the 29th anniversary of the US launch of the console (which for the record, was actually a coincidence, I'm not making this up).
Also this week came in the news of the release of Hardcore, a game from back in the day by DICE to be published by Psygnosis that was cancelled at last minute. The announced release is for PS4 and Vita, but hopefully somebody can manage to get it released on a Mega Drive cartridge?
Xeno Crisis should be coming in a few months, so 2018 is shaping nicely. More long term, Tänzer and Kung Fu UFO are on the way too. There's also Crypt of Dracula, probably a bunch more that I forgot. And I have the scoop that a brand new platformer may be coming too. Nice to see how the console is getting attention again about three decades after its launch.
*iwis boops you*
2018-08-23 edit: Ahaha, I had completely forgotten that Star J came out on August 1st (going by Star J's sale announcement tweet, anyway — note: tweet in Spanish). What's going on with this month.
