@PSCDGames That would be really awesome. Latest info that i personally know of is the video from the composer Jamie Vance on the Mega Cat Studios( publisher) website. They seem to be about ready for the KS. For real this time. Haven't heard about it being actually this week. But i'm not on Twitter/X so i'm also kinda out of the loop sometimes.
Looks okay, but I'm hesitant to give these guys any more money just yet. Black Jewel has been delayed for two years now, well past the original release date shown in the KickStarter campaign. Updates for the supporters regarding the game's development have been extremely far and few between and it's a bit of a discredit to what is clearly a talented group of devs. Tbh, until Black Jewel Reborn is finally actually released, I'm holding off on any additional pledges.
Yeah every time these guys announce yet another project I get a little more disappointed. Classic mistake that a lot of people make, take on way too many projects when you haven't even finished *one*. Spreading their resources thin and everything gets delayed. Black Jewel Reborn is also head and shoulders above these other demos in terms of quality.
@PSCDGames You guys made the decision to take on new projects and new crowd funding campaigns. Don't blame your backers because you keep delaying the release. The options are not make a "dull game" or take forever. No one is under any obligation to support you and if you disrespect your audience, you'll eventually lose your audience. I understand first hand how things take time and can get delayed/behind schedule. Own up to it and drop the attitude.
Love the people at PSCD games, also got their entire catalog! Can't wait for this one, it seems right up my alley, very Trouble Shooter/Battle Mania-like. Love the art and direction.
Thanks Mike for bringing this news to us! I’m glad u managed to clear the boss on the 2nd attempt👍.. at least it is not as difficult as R Type and as hard-to-figure-out as AsteBros which I got stuck right at the beginning. 😂
i will support this!! having some physical releases is a good thing esp in modern times. i refuse to support digital. imma start supporting these indies more in future
Looks amazing Mike, nearly every new release on the megadrive have been amazing and worth getting. I’m expanding my megadrive Indy collection, great review Mike, see you soon 👍👍👍
And there you are bringing us another project I didn't know about. Gameplay looked a bit slower than I thought a shooter would be like, but then again the enemies bullets aren't that fast too, so it's probably not an issue. You mentioned Black Jewel Reborn. I'm wondering how far in development it currently is, 'cause we haven't seen news on this project in a while!
I’ve never been drawn to shoot ‘em ups, they always looks great, and the level of quality of this demo looks very good. But still shmups weren’t my thing.
My first impression was that it has alot of similarities from the Famicom game Final Mission aka Action in NY or S.C.A.T. overseas. It was confirmed by the publisher that it was inspired from it. Which is awesome.
Amazing start menu!🙌🏻 And those screenshots from the missions look very promising. We'll have a similar game though from company FREEDOMISLAND LLC. Now here is a large piece of animation almost wrapped up revealing another mini-boss in that universe we'd created. There 10 of them along with 5 Mega-bosses). I will finish this huge piece of animation soon which I could send you to your e-mail, Mike, if you share👱🏻👍🏻
@@RetroGamerBoy and what's your e-mail, Mike? Since I've almost finished on my end here😄. Voice-over, dubbing, sound design. It's have all made to 98,9%
@PSCDGames That's great! I wanna put the dream team together - The animators like for The Earth Worm Jim and Metal Slug to make the same level of animations and artistic value of every element in our game. Maybe you guys know where those people are now? They should be in their 50-57 I suppose. Or maybe you guys reached the same level in animating figures and characters?
@PSCDGames Awesome!🎉 What's your e-mail? So I could send you a few interesting stuff made by us for watching and listening. And you could discuss this with your animators. 'Cause we want to go far beyond the game, but also creating an animation series based on it, Action Figures of Protagonists (Players) and Antagonists (Mini-bosses, mega-bosses and NPCs) and and even the Universe for the future movie projects, since upon finishing all the neccesary video intros for it, I will get an appropriate the highest ranked representation of a good old Hollywood representatives (not a contemprary wоkе anti-"...." реdоwооd)))) who have been expecting me wraping up making something for a display to Him
It needs a more metal soundtrack if the controls are anything like Forgotten Worlds it’s gonna be a pain in the ass!!! Games like that and Ranger X could have been so much better but had limited replay value due to the controls and no continues
It's very reminiscent of Forgotten Worlds, to be honest, but with a more modern colorization style. Apart from that, it doesn't offer much new in terms of fun, but I also don't know how big the ROM that will be used for the game will be...
I'm fine, just deep in games development at the moment. I am working with my team on a release and this means 16 hour work days. Which doesn't leave much time for anything else.
Oh, it's just a boring shoot em up that's similar to Forgotten Worlds. Which I hated that game too, because I felt like both of the covers are false advertising for a game that they don't deliver on. The two characters look like they're ripped straight from Contra, and that this is going to be an awesome run, and gun game. Do we get that? Nope! Just a stupid, boring, and uninspired derivative.

The mega genesis will never die. The fan games keep it alive! I love to see it
Na verdade, muitos consoles ganham novos games, NES é o que mais ganha jogos novos!
@@jogadorcomum3265The nes is too primitive, only 16-bit really matters.
It's amazing to see it's revival.
Cyber Mission looks cool. Definitely going to back it.
Still waiting on ZPF Kickstarter. Hope that it's still coming.
@PSCDGames That would be really awesome. Latest info that i personally know of is the video from the composer Jamie Vance on the Mega Cat Studios( publisher) website.

I'll have an update on it soon.
I really enjoy your videos, Mike! Greetings from Brazil!
Hi, I think some of the best Mega Drive developers are in Brazil.
Those colours really do POP! Looks like a two player game of this would be great fun.
I'm hoping to get the 2player demo in the near future.
@@RetroGamerBoyawesome vid
Shoot ‘em ups were very rare for me growing up. As an adult I’ve found my genre and it’s great to see so many come out lately.
There are some great ones on the horizon as well.
Good to se you again Mike.
That's 👍
Got a bit of Capcom's Side Arms to it
This exactly☝️
Hi praise indeed.
Welcome back. I was worried you'd gone AWOL. We've lost a few retro game channels recently and worried you were one of them.
I'm just head down on the PS5 release of my teams game. That usually means long nights and weekends sadly.

Games take a long time to make. I understand the frustration but I would not worry. The team will deliver.
Looks great. Wonder when it will release, 2026 maybe? I haven't heard anything about Black Jewel for a while.
This year. We'll be in control.
Thanks both for the update! Those are some great news!!
I think both games are this year.
Crazy how the MD is coming back to life!! I wish Snes would also come back too!!
The snes hardware is obsolete and outdated to modern programming standards.
@@Retro_Troll I heard the SDK is horrible
It's strange how the SNES gets very little. Even when there is a new release, they don't sell very well.
Ill back this once i get my black jewel i have been waiting for
Black Jewel is still in development. Check out their Twitter for the latest updates.
Love the people at PSCD games, also got their entire catalog!
Can't wait for this one, it seems right up my alley, very Trouble Shooter/Battle Mania-like.
Love the art and direction.
Yes Battle mania. Great game.
Slayer and Blunts to the brother who's been missed
🤘😝🤘
Welcome back mate :)
The game looks interesting but I will have to wait till the final version comes out.
If this is your genre of game it's worth trying the demo 👍
Gameplay wise it's similar to trouble shooter
Interesting
Reminds me of forgotten worlds
That was my first impression as well.
Thanks Mike for bringing this news to us! I’m glad u managed to clear the boss on the 2nd attempt👍.. at least it is not as difficult as R Type and as hard-to-figure-out as AsteBros which I got stuck right at the beginning. 😂
Astebros is tough for the first hour, but after that you can upgrade quite quickly.
You would think alpha build more (close to final) than beta but other way around
Maybe
Looks like a port of Cyber Mission available on GOG and Steam released September 2023.
I think you're right. 🤘😝🤘
i will support this!! having some physical releases is a good thing esp in modern times. i refuse to support digital. imma start supporting these indies more in future
@badbou-gn8fu yeah I definitely agree with I don’t like digital and this is awesome to see so many new releases for all time favourite gaming console
It's great to see people still supporting physical media.
Looks amazing Mike, nearly every new release on the megadrive have been amazing and worth getting. I’m expanding my megadrive Indy collection, great review Mike, see you soon 👍👍👍
I'll have more news on more games soon.
Gorgeous game, good looking host; this channel really does have it all!
😅😂🤣🤮
And there you are bringing us another project I didn't know about. Gameplay looked a bit slower than I thought a shooter would be like, but then again the enemies bullets aren't that fast too, so it's probably not an issue.
You mentioned Black Jewel Reborn. I'm wondering how far in development it currently is, 'cause we haven't seen news on this project in a while!
From what I've seen it's made good progress. It has a ton of features.
Awesome vid
Thanks 😊👍
Beautiful game
It does look great.
Know your games, gamers.
This plays and sprites are exactly like S.C.A.T Special Cybernetic Attack Team for the NES.
😱
@@RetroGamerBoy Thats right!
I’ve never been drawn to shoot ‘em ups, they always looks great, and the level of quality of this demo looks very good. But still shmups weren’t my thing.
I was always intimidated by them. But the Mega Drive shoot'em ups are a lot more forgiving.
dude i mean this as a compliment, you look like a spitting image of tyson fury if he had found a passion for sega games instead of boxing
😂
This game would have been huge back in 1992
Agreed 👍
My first impression was that it has alot of similarities from the Famicom game Final Mission aka Action in NY or S.C.A.T. overseas. It was confirmed by the publisher that it was inspired from it. Which is awesome.
There are very few of this type of game. It's great to get a modern version.
The game looks like a modern contra the art style reminds me of that
It's really well made.
Glad to see this is also on Steam, look forward to playing on my Steam Deck one day.
Great looking game this is Mike. The crew at PSCD are are taking it into consideration to have it ported over on the Neo-Geo. 8^)
Anthony..
If Arrow Flash and Forgotten Worlds had a baby
😂

Wow this looks great, I love my shooters, definitely picking this one up👍🏻.
Another new game for 2024.
It needs a more metal soundtrack if the controls are anything like Forgotten Worlds it’s gonna be a pain in the ass!!! Games like that and Ranger X could have been so much better but had limited replay value due to the controls and no continues
The controls are spot on, it feels very responsive.
It's very reminiscent of Forgotten Worlds, to be honest, but with a more modern colorization style. Apart from that, it doesn't offer much new in terms of fun, but I also don't know how big the ROM that will be used for the game will be...
Did you play the demo?
@@RetroGamerBoyNot yet, I haven't had time to do it lately.
Looks pretty sweet!
It's shaping up to be a great game.
Woww look good. I love news games release in Megadrive
Snap
I always wanted someone to make a 16 bit section Z 👌
🤘😝🤘
Wow, thank you.
Anytime
0:43 😮 holy crap look at those colors 😮 are those real or you're editing and stuff?!
Nope that's real and running on OG hardware
@@RetroGamerBoy thats awesome
waiting deamon claw master xD shout out !
Looks like it's inspired in S.C.A.T. for the NES.
High praise
nice cyber mission
It looks super cool.
Nice video 😉
Thanks
The art style looks very modern (overly clean, simple shading, etc.) but still cool nevertheless
It's stylized
Looks kinda promising. But at least for now I think I have enough shmups
The shmups do seem to dominate indie dev on the classic consoles.
There is no such thing as enough shmups 😂
How lonnnnnnnnng was that boss fight??!
It's a demo, the new version improves the fight.
I have a question . Is there still a full astebros review coming?
Probably not from me. So many people have done one. For me though it was a must buy and one of the best games of 2023.
@@RetroGamerBoywhy have you stopped weekly reviews? Why did you stop falling into the camera at the end of your videos?
I'm just taking a break. I'm making a PS5 game at work and that is a lot of work. It does not leave much time for anything else.
S.C.A.T from NES!!
😊
👍
🤘😝🤘
Fucking hell bro you’ve got some games you
It's been almost a lifetime passion.
This game seems ok, but instead of Playing this game I would just pull out Forgotten Worlds which is a classic. It's a good intention.
Mike!? Miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiike!
Selfish comment, but hope you're doing okay :)
I'm fine, just deep in games development at the moment. I am working with my team on a release and this means 16 hour work days. Which doesn't leave much time for anything else.
Ha! Final Mission / S.C.A.T clone, well better than most anyways.
Every game is technically a clone of another gamer. The nuances of mechanics, art, audio, and world are often the differentiator. Beside
I'm such of all of these games needing a kick starter to even be made. Pass
Pity.
This looks pretty cool. My daughter would probably like playing this 2 player with her old man. She's my shooter baby👍
My young son loves playing two player MD games with me.
Music sounds great to me. Don't agree about it needing speedier rock at all
@PSCDGames Great stuff, and awesome by the way that you're promoting it 👍
I guess it's all subjective 👍
Too many shooters and platformer homebrew games imo. I'd like to see a good original fighting game or beat em up on 32x or Dreamcast.
these are games for babies. you're not babies.
Really?
Forgotten Worlds ripoff and looks worse.
Don't worry about it, you can play the snes version coming to you never 😆
Really?
Oh, it's just a boring shoot em up that's similar to Forgotten Worlds. Which I hated that game too, because I felt like both of the covers are false advertising for a game that they don't deliver on.
The two characters look like they're ripped straight from Contra, and that this is going to be an awesome run, and gun game. Do we get that? Nope! Just a stupid, boring, and uninspired derivative.
The genesis/megadrive continues to get new game's while the snes doesn't, and that's all that matters.
Yeah scat clone. Not interested.
Nevermind, maybe their next game will be more your style.
