Awesome.

Pulseman, Rocket and Sonic all mixed into one I guess. Great graphics and music but animation looks choppy. Could have been vimeo though.
My God, that does look awesome. And that theme music, fuck, I LOVE that music!!Quote:

I can only echo. Yet another excellent looking game from a surprising trend of quality retro and throwback games!
Holy hell, this was not forgotten !
I remember this years ago on Sound Shock forums...
Hopefully, it won't be brutal like I Wanna Be The Guy Gaiden.
For months I've been telling people, there's a proper way, and in improper way to do pixel like graphics.
Pixel graphics should never be an excuse for bad graphics, and look at what we have here compared to so many other indie games right now.
Highly detailed backgrounds
Excellent animation
Interesting bosses
Actual level design instead of levels designed for no reason than to test patience (a la I wanna be the guy)
Good music instead of using as3sfx for laziness
And no stupid memes to be seen so far.
I am looking forward to this.
Strider has been replaced by a pengiun in a diaper. I wish more people would learn asm programming so this could also be a real genesis homebrew. So many "homage" pc / whateverware games.
*looks again* Strider and vectorman got into an orgy with a pengiun.....and this's the result!

Woah, I really really love the way the penguin looks. Really wanna try playing this game. I love animals in videogames <3.

Ripple Dot Zero is going to be released on June 28th,
and it will be completely free to play over on rippledotzero.com.
It is a Flash game
Oh god, the music sounds like it's from Simon Stålenhag, one of the greatest FM artists ever. I can forgive the it being a flash game just for that.
Unfortunately programming in flash is probably 100x easier than programming in genesis assembly.Quote:
