PC-Gunjin

Most PCE homebrews haven't caught my attention but this game by MindRec looks like it has potential.

Awesome. Is this for emus only or can you order a card?

[NeoZeedeater]

I doubt they'll make a card. It's probably going to be CD only.

[Cheebs]

Cd's good too. As long as I don't have to play it on a PC.

Waoo... This looks very professional indeed... They're doing a great job. I also hope it'll be out on a CD for the original system too.

Saw pics of this last week, looks great. Will be the first game I buy from the Mindrec guys. They are also working on a PCE freeware shmup:

FraGMarE: In addition to the Gunstar-like PC-Gunjin we are developing for the PC-Engine, we have also decided to make a true vertical shmup our next project. After PC-Gunjin's completion, full-on development will begin on Xymati (tentative title). Some proof of concept work and development has already been done with it, actually.

Here's an early picture, just to whet everyone's appetite

Not a lot of details are finalized, but here is what we do have nailed down so far:
- It will have at least 3 ships to choose from (like DonPachi or Sapphire)
- It will be 2-player co-op (not common among PC-Engine shmups)
-It will have a "make-your-own-weapon" power-up system like Spriggan
- It will be a traditional space shmup (sorry cute-em-up fans)
- It will have chaining bonuses like more modern shmups
- It may even have some mild rank

It does look good, I only hope they don't have problems with available RAM. *-neo
