Since development has progressed quite a lot lately I’ve decided to officially announce it.
Sonic Rebirth will be a platform game developed by IBERDC DEV TEAM aiming to be a classic sonic game specially sonic 3 and knuckles. The project has also many objectives, it will be open source once finished and it is documented as hell to serve as a introduction to dreamcast programming , KOS and SDL as well.
It will include even stuff that won’t be used like a swiss knife for examples of what can be done with the dreamcast. A SDK with a level editor will be released as well for people to design their own levels or mods. Maybe it would feature time attack leader boards either by passwords or BBA. there will be 3 playable characters at first:
Sonic
Tails
Knuckles
So far we have a lot of documentation and a few of the subsystems ready.
Sound ( probably will be remade in kos )
Vmu -> a lot of stuff, saved game takes 2 blocks ( needs a little cleaning )
Gfx -> We are considering a lot of libraries, classes an option to the better performance
For now I’ll leave you witha little “teaser” of the game’s story:
A past filled with murky secrets.
An emerald hidden for centuries with a dark and misterious power within
Relic from an ancient warrior civilization
Now the phantoms of the past have returned
And as fate repeats once more
the legend is reborn.
