Tanglewood (SEGA Mega Drive) Kickstarter is now live!

After much deliberation, I've added a reward option that offers Tanglewood as a downloadable ROM file, for flash carts (Everdrive and such) and emulators.

We hit 50%!

I'll be doing a Reddit AMA tomorrow (Sunday 4th) at 7pm GMT to try and drum up some more interest. Please do drop by if you can

Also I was on a Computerphile video:

 

Please welcome, Mr Simon Butler! You may know him from... every game ever.

Just backed this. Looks really awesome, and the soundtrack is phat.

 

Thank you for the support! Creeping up to 75% funded with 6 days left, I'm biting my nails!

There's another Computerphile video going live this Friday which should help, the last one brought in loads of backers. There's also usually a rush towards the end of a Kickstarter, let's hope it's enough.

• Adoru C. (Character artist, Pier Solar)

• Freezedream (Composer, released album on MD cart)
• Myself (ex-Crytek, TT Games, author of BigEvilCorporation.co.uk Mega Drive programming blog)

 

5 days remaining, the home stretch!

We're 75% funded, please share with your friends and family and colleagues and pets!

Just backed this project (and facebooked the link to my friends).

 

Thank you thank you thank you

 

Backed - Looks great so far, keep it up!

 

They officially announced a Dreamcast port should they hit the 55k stretch goal! Woooooot!

 

Great idea, and honestly will probably get me to back it!

 

91% of the goal now

Back it soon then 3 days left. Hope this project will be backed up. More than 90% of the goal reached

 

It's getting closer... Hope I don't die from a heart attack before the goal is reached!

 

The top pledge was retracted We need your help more than ever now! We can totally make this!

 

So I'm not imagining things and it was at $55,000 last night, right? Cuz I swear I saw that.

Can't believe anyone had a single donation even worth that much to begin with.

 

Really, the amount was higher than 48k ? Wow, that sucks that someone cancelled a such donation. He/she may have his/her reason, but that sucks.
