Despite going out of production years ago, the Dreamcast is still fairly well supported. Developer ‘Redspot Games’ has announced their new Dreamcast game ‘Sturmwind’ – an arcade shooter. The game will have sixteen levels, over twenty bosses and “hundreds of enemies”. It will also be region free.
It’s not every day we hear news on a new Dreamcast game, and it just so happens it’s one of my favourite genres. I’ve seen some of Redspot’s work before and it all looked solid, so I will be dusting my Dreamcast down in preparation. Some brief gameplay footage can be seen on this video from 2 mins 45 onwards.

damn… i was thinking about sending thi in as a anews tip… :)
for people wondering how much money they make of games like this, hes talking about sales comparabvle to those of a middle-class WiiWare/XBLA game and that they just make enough money to keep going and its only possible because they are such a small team and are mainly publishing, promoting and distributing games. talking about sturmwind in particular he says it has been developed by a 2 man team over the course of 6 years.

I hope they’re smart enough to bring it to the masses as well as to the people who can’t let go of the past. :-p
