The developer of the canceled Dreamcast FPS In the line of Fire created it. After the drama regarding how shitty he was treated by one of his developers on his game forcing him to show it off on Kickstarter too early, he got super depressed after it failed and decided to leave the community. So this will never be finished by him unfortunately. But the original development thread can be found in the link below.
