Underground DC Developers Strike Back: Feet of Fury
frohike writes "After reading the recent article
about game non-originality, I'm pleased to say that there's another
entry to the Dreamcast's innovative game lineup, and this time it isn't
coming from one of the Big Publishers but the underground:
Feet of Fury! This independent music beat game includes player vs player gameplay and a Typing of Fury mode. It was developed by
us on a $0 budget using Linux, Gimp, and various other
free tools over the past few years, and it uses the BSD-licensed
KallistiOS toolkit as its base. (This
is the same toolkit which most homebrew developers have written the emulators
and such with.) We've used a number of neat free software technologies such
as Ogg Vorbis in the game itself,
and we contribute a large chunk of our code back to the community in
the hopes that others can follow in our footsteps. There is even a
publisher ready to help you
get your ideas to fruition and sell them for you, so what are you waiting
for? Now's your chance to be a console developer too. Let's make some great new innovative Dreamcast games!"
When Timothy posts an article not about bashing MS, or Promoting Linux (While baching MS), or posting an article about Game-dev, and then bashing MS and XBox.
Dreamcast? Why not make parts for the Ford Pinto.
thank you for your time. and I want my time back for the FUD/hatred that Timothy promotes.
