    @hombreimaginario, looks really good! Really liking these updates. I'm very curious to know if you guys are also going to support widescreen?

    Our Dev Diaries are back! New enemies, new music, new features, new bosses revealed!

    http://retrosumus.com/2016/11/dev-diaries-08-the-story-so-far/

    Make sure to watch until the end ;)

    Only 13 copies of the ultra-limited PAL edition are still available! Pre-order Xenocider today: http://retrosumus.com/shop/

    Thank you!
    We'll have to look into it. Probably yes, but it will depend on how the whole game looks and if the mechanics still work as intended with a different resolution. We'll see :)

    We just came back to our homes after reuniting in Madrid for an intensive work weekend, mainly focused on turning Xenocider on a more complete, playable (and re-playable) experience. We all live in different cities, so we keep each other updated via Skype or Hangouts and do regular video-meetings when we are done with our jobs, which usually means quite late at night. But once in a while, meeting and testing things in person is worth the trip...

    Lots of updates, learn more here!

    Only 10 copies of the PAL edition and 18 copies of the steelbook edition are still available. So we figured we might as well start doing some tests...
    Pre-order Xenocider today! :D http://retrosumus.com/shop/

    PAL edition is sold out!

    Only 15 units of the Steelbook edition are still available!

    :D

    We never ceased work on Xenocider. Or Ameba for that matter, but that's going slower than initially planned for a number of reasons. We'll share more info on this soon :)

    A really nice bonus item will be included with ALL pre-orders (and exclusively with pre-orders). Announcement coming soon ;) Once the game is released and shipped, no more pre-order exclusive goodies!

    Get Xenocider for Dreamcast here! http://retrosumus.com/shop/

    Yay! Finally the forum's back! :)

    So, lots of updates yo re-post here, it seems... I guess I'll just share the last bunch of videos to show you guys the progress made to the game! :)

    First of all, all pre-orders will receive an exclusive poster by comic book artist Agustín Padilla:


    A new, hectic city stage, the Transistor Highway. Enemies, obstacles, music, boss:


    Now on real hardware!


    A little music teaser we shared about our latest stage...


    And the stage itself revealed! :D

    Oh wait, there's more! We won't even try to hide how much of a homage to the Shinobi arcade this bonus stage is!


    :)

    As you probably know already, PAL Edition has been sold out for some time. Last few copies of the Steelbook Edition available now:
    http://retrosumus.com/product/xenocider-steelbook-edition/

    So just as a reminder, as we've been receiving some inquiries about this, we won't be using cheap tin boxes containing a regular DVD case (or disc sleeves or anything like that), but proper quality Steelbook, double-disc cases like the ones in this pic we shared some months ago.

    Also, for those who didn't read our last update:

    Although we could have kept the original (late June) release date, we’d rather polish and beta-test everything a thousand times and make sure it works flawlessly than rush the release just to meet the deadline. And that’s what we’re planning to do. We are now aiming for a Fall release.

    http://retrosumus.com/2017/06/xenocider-sakuras-realm-limited-edition-difficulty-settings/

    It's a good read if I may say so myself, as it's loaded with photos from our last Xenocider Work Weekend :p
