New games: Redux: Dark Matters and DUX 1.5

Aw, still no 2p post-mortem shmups
Maybe some day... not that I know anyone who would want to play shmups 2 player with me, anyway, or bought Redux.

I thought Redux was a whole new game? No?

From what I've heard it isn't. I think that there's a new stage, and maybe the graphics were overhauled or something? I'm not really sure.

really? That's confusing. I mean... why have a 1.5 if Redux is also just an upgrade?

What's throw me off the most is that nothing on the Hucast description page mentions is being a remake/upgrade/etc. Just says "new game" y'know? Which is why I figured it must be a proper sequel?

Nope.

Some defunct links, it's an old interview... but it checks out.

Yup, im skipping this one.

Skipping on a new dreamcast game?


Also has anybody received there copy yet from the Kickstarter yet?

[noiseredux]

lame.

I'm not canceling my pre-order- mainly cuz it's a "new" DC game and I want to check it out for myself.

But pissed at the same time.

I got the kickstarter limited edition deal with Redux: Dark Matters and DUX Ver. 1.5 the other day and I have played Dark Matters for maybe fifteen minutes. It's like it's a bad port or something. The resolution is... strange. It looks so blurry I can't look at it without getting headache (neither can my girlfriend). It feels like I'm crossing my eyes when I look at it.

To pay $65 plus shipping (plus tracked shipping...) and wait several years to recieve a totally unplayable game - not happy.

I would call it "recycled" and not "new"

DUX 1.6

[Starfighter]

I'd say 1.4...
