Nice addition to the Dreamcast library, a genre you hardly see! Will definitely pre-order this game(s) once available!

This make me think of Myst for sure. Ah Myst... It's been a long while since I've been into point and click games (The Journeyman Project series also comes to mind) but this will be a fresh addition!

Awesome thanks mazonemayu. I see they have a video posted too. Appears to be an older video from different platform though.

Yes, I believe it was initially written for the Jaguar, but he decided to release it on the DC instead, so I assume it'll be a port of sorts.
Still, I think this is quite impressive, it was made by a single person after all

Both games are actually for sale for the Atari Jaguar (CD), so this should be a port of those, unless there might be enhancements for the DC. Not a bad thing at all, the more games the merrier

There were no enhancements for Alice so I guess these will be straight ports too.
While I'm not exactly a fan of Hucast's customer service and, well... their way of doing things, I am happy for Orion.
