Dashy no Blast - Pre-Alpha Halloween Demo from Voxel

Post by SpaceHoliday »

Just wanted to share this new pre-alpha demo, ‘Dashy no Blast’ a Halloween-themed multi-directional shooter from developer voxel. It’s currently one level but is looking really promising!

From the project’s itch.io page:

"Happy Halloween 2022! Hold right trigger to lock-on, press A to blast, use the left stick to move!

This is a short, early pre-alpha dreamcast demo! It's missing all kinds of stuff, there's some minor bugs and gameplay isn't even slightly balanced. If you'd like to see this developed further, give me your feedback on twitter (https://twitter.com/voxel or in the comments below.

To play this you need to run it on a real Dreamcast console or use an emulator. (Region free, VGA only, controller needs to be in port 1. No dual stick support.)"

Download the .cdi here: https://voxel.itch.io/dashy-blast

O M G, this looks absolutely stunning.
Can't wait to try this one out (unfortunately I have to be patient, I just shipped out my DC to get it fitted with DCDigital)

Voxel says you can support the project by giving him feedback on Twitter to help development.

The game "[leverages] the powerful open source KallistiOS and GLdc libraries."

On a side note, Voxel claims he can't register on this forum, maybe someone can look into that or help him.
