We'll see how it goes.
I'm currently concentrating on other projects.


This is an older picture, I made some progress, but kinda in a slump with it right now.

Oh nice. Progress is still progress, no matter how slow it is, got to appreciate it.

I dare Konami to release a game called "Castlevania: Devil's Castle", see hot it would be called in Japan.

Actually the upcoming Akumajō Dracula/Castlevania game that's released soon in October 2026 (Castlevania: Belmont's Curse) will have the "Castlevania" word in Japan version, same title with western version.
I don't know why, may be because the studio who made it (Evil Empire) is located in France, not in Japan.

True. I dunno if a Crazy Taxi movie would be to my taste, but I'll probably still watch it.

What's your taste in movies?

I hate this trend of "Download Code Only", seems like a waste of plastic to me.

That's your continent European trend, we in Asia always got full cartridge/CD release.

Well, at least until this year for Playstation since sadly Playstation is stopping making discs so either digital or this code box thing.

I hope Sega of Japan's headquarters, or at least arcades, are available for a visit.

Would also be fun to visit landmarks.

I don't even know if the character could get out from their car.

As an admin on the Sonic Wiki Zone, there was a bit of a discussion on it awhile back. But, I don't think the issue is the facr it's a Japanese shows, especially given there's no actual language in these videos making them enjoyable by all, I believe it's the fact it's a TikTok series that is off-putting.

As I'm sure I said before, when they do post those videos to YouTube, it's still in short-screen format. Even when uploaded as regular videos they don't use the entire screen. I'd rather they re-record the footage and have a lot of dead-space on the side of screen than this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xM8IkpA8UUE

Another reason I imagine why Sonic & Friends isn't getting much traction outside of TikTok is because if you go on Youtube and search "Sonic and friends", you'll mostly find videos from this YouTube channel. Trying "Sonic & friends" (with an ampersand) does yield a bit better results, with this collection, but still mostly a video of a guy playing with his Sonic plushies.

So yeah, that's why I believe Sonic & Friends have no attention outside of Japan, and the fact it's a TikTok series probably makes it a more limited platform in Japan.

Heck, I never heard of the term "Sonifure" until you told me it.

Well, the purpose of Sonifure brand is to sell the plushies, and since the plushies are still only sold in Japan, I don't think SEGA care if Sonifure don't have presence in overseas.
I believe the reason they choose Tiktok because it has Tiktok shop built in it.
One click (or one tap if it's from smartphones) is all you need, right away before you got distracted by any other shiny things.



I feel kinda hurt that, do they know there are Dreamcast fans waiting for their controllers? how long do we have to wait?
The only reason why I haven't gotten a DreamConn S is because I want a licenced Sega controller, and I want to see what the Wireless Dreamcast Pro Controller looks like.

So please, Retro-Bit, don't leave us Dreamcast-fans hangin'. Especially with Crazy Taxi: World Tour and the new Jet Set Radio on the way.


The games are getting more pre-orders than the controllers and they're easier to make.

this is a sega mega drive/genesis demake of the 2048-like mobile puzzle game threes. merge 1 (blue) and 2 (red) tiles to make 3 (white), then merge two white tiles to make large numbers (6, 12, 24, 48 and so on).  keep in mind that tiles move one cell at a time, unlike 2048.

Curse of the Herder  (Dreamcast)

Quote
A port of Curse of the Herder (play it in a browser at https://hunterdavis.com/curse-of-the-herder/) to the Sega Dreamcast, built on KallistiOS.A cursed herder gathers sixty sheep across an island over a nine-hour day, learns to swear from the books he finds in little free libraries, and retires to a Hall of Herders with his last words on a stone. No language model: a deterministic grammar over curated word lists, generated from the web game's data so the two stay in step.

This story is focused on depersonalization and depression and touches on attempted suicide and paranoia. Exercise care if these are triggers for you.

The other day, I posted something especially distressing on social media, but a friend noticed that it fell in line with a subculture, Empty Spaces, and mentioned it to me. I was unaware but on checking out an anthology and some stuff she shared with me, I saw myself extremely clearly reflected. Not all of it was 1:1. It's such a vast concept, I don't think any one person (regardless of how many people they are), can fully encompass it.

Anyway, I felt a necessity to write as I don't think I ever have in my life before and this is what came out. It was terribly painful. I hated writing it. But I think it's the most important thing I've ever written.

I hope it can make someone out there feel less alone as the Empty Spaces writings I've read have made me feel.

Bio Blade: A Star Odyssey is a video game I developed for the Sega Genesis. It's written in C and uses the SGDK library. It's a cool project I created to further my knowledge in coding and low-level programming languages. Essentially, it's a tech-demo portraying my knowledge with SGDK as a new programmer.
