You’d loved to have been in the room. “You know what House of the Dead needs more of?” “What?” “Typing!” And so Sega mashed its fab light gun shooter into Mavis Beacon and the result was… awesome. Rather than aim and fire, you smashed out words accurately, or had your face torn off. Now someone have the next Walking Dead TV show do the same, for the yuks.
Wooohooo... Finally you can use the Rust on the Dreamcast! I just read this message on the development Discord channel:
From darcagent (@darcag3nt on X)
"Rust? On my#Sega#Dreamcast? It's more likely than you think! I just put out a tutorial and supporting repo for creating Rust projects in Cargo targetting Dreamcast + #KallistiOS using rustc_codegen_gcc! Here's an example cube calling GLdc from #Rust!"

The #magazine is complete!
This #zine is digital nostalgia; a collective of writers from the #fediverse striving to capture the subjective quality of #videogames with stories about life-and-stuff.
You can choose a video game that never existed to come out on just one game console to happen. Which one would you choose? I would definitely go for a completely new Panzer Dragoon for the Dreamcast. 🌀
There's a diagnostic suite of software for game consoles which tests input lag and screen tearing on your display. This suite first popped up for consoles released at the turn of the century (Dreamcast, specifically), but someone has made a version of this toolkit for... the ColecoVision....
It took a little longer, but I finally got the #Rust examples to compile for the #Sega#Dreamcast on my machine. However, it was a long way to setup the toolchain for it. Hopefully this can be improved a bit in the future. I guess I have to catch up the messages on the Discord server to see if there were some new features introduced during the last few days. #retro#development
Malheur, la Dreamcast est retombée en panne après moult réparations à chaud.
Je peux pas me passer de jeux de rythme comme Rez, Samba Amigo, Space Channel, Rhythm Paradise...
reply with a short story about your personal history with the #Dreamcast or first #PlayStation and i will feature your words in my magazine and cite your mastodon account (with your permission, of course).
the concept is a page titled "an ode to the (console)" with real testimonials from real people.
it can be as long or as short as you want; it will be included regardless.
