Hi, this is my homebrew entry, I wanted to submit something 3D but still struggling a bit with it so here's a 2d platformer! ZYGO The aim of the game is to collect gems to unlock levels (only 2 in this demo), after defeating the bosses, you gain the ability to transform into a new creature for a short time (spider or bat so far) by collecting powerups, this enables you to climb walls / get through small gaps / fly to reach new areas in the levels. This is my first attempt to learn C so the code is a bit of a mess! basically needs re-writing but i haven't had the time. The sound fx and bosses are just place holders at the moment and i'll re-do these when i get a chance.          
*****I've re-attached the demo to fix some issues with the audio tracks***** | ||||

Hello again Here's Gabriel Sansigolo (@G_Sansigolo...) . And here's my new homebrew entry for the contest: Red Moon: Lost Days... Red Moon: Lost Days DEMO  Red Moon: Lost Days  Red Moon: Lost Days is a visual novel developed for the Sega Saturn about Kyou Tan Wa, a pilot who after lost contact with a Army General friend, sets out on a journey to Egypt to investigate his disappearance. Nineteen years have passed, but the shadow of the Great War is still upon the world.On February 28, 2019, the 3th world war began; the war was between China and the United States of America. A series of sanctions imposed by USA ignited this war. Eventually, including a total ban on trade between China-backed countries. A feature of the Great War was the use of war robots, pilot operated biped machines, the Metal Knights. When China won the war, the world changed. For good. Since the war, Great China establish a system to remain militarily stately. The Great Generals system. Each of the Great Generals handles one of the five major military base of Great China. Zhaoky base with Houke and Rinshu, Weisho base with Ren and Goke, Yannro base with Gakuk and Gekishin, Quinou base with Koshou and Lu, and Chukou base with you. You are Kyou Tan Wa of Chukou, Great General, leader of the Kyou Army and daughter of Shin Tan Wa and Rei. You carry on your back the weight of being the sword and the shield of Chukou. Before being a Great General, you were just a girl in the middle of nowhere. You grew up on the border of the United Europe with Great China, once known as the Middle-East. The battles between the United States and China happened there nineteen years ago.          -Amazing character, backgrounds and CG art from @amkitani... -Original soundtrack from Guilherme Crispim -Nonlinear narrative with multiple paths The full game page can be found at Red Moon: Lost Days by Neuromage Studio.... There you can find more information about the game, in addition to the trailer and information about each of the characters. Demo The demo is a sample of the full game and because of the narrative selected chapters the story was incomplete. The demo contains the first ten chapters of the game, a selection of scenes that gives a context the whole story. However, it is important to highlight that the narrative is incomplete, the full story of the game is not represented by the first ten chapters. Disclaimer This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places and incidents either are products of the author’s imagination or are used fictitiously. Any resemblance to actual events or locales or persons, living or dead, is entirely coincidental. | ||||

Hi, on behalf of the entire Bulk Slash English Localization Team, I'm submitting our Bulk Slash patch in the Hacks, Patches, and Translations category. For legal reasons, I can't post prepatched bin and cue files, but you can find the SSP patch file at our Resource page here: Bulk Slash (English)... Check the readme file that comes with the patch for details on the patching process. (It uses Knight0fDragon's patcher and it's very easy.)   In the event that the judges place us in the top three entrants in our category, our team must pre-emptively decline any cash prize. While it's extremely generous that these prizes are offered, we've diligently avoided any money changing hands during the creation of this patch and we'd like to maintain that. The reasons are twofold — one, to avoid legal challenges. And two, because 30 people contributed to this patch with varying degrees of time, effort and visibility — getting all of those people to agree on how best to divide the prize money might cause a lot of emotional strife. We'd also have to decline the 3D printed prize for similar reasons. All that said, thank you to EmeraldNova for running this competition and to all the judges for devoting their time and energy to it. But the biggest thank you goes to everyone else who contributes patches, utilities and original games to this competition — through your talent and passion, each one of you is helping people enjoy their Saturns all these years after its release, and that's a very special thing worth celebrating. | ||||

My submission for Utilities category: Simple model converter i have been using for TankGame, and currently for a game Sky Blaster..., Converter shows loaded model in its window with XY grid, allows to rotate quads or set whether they have to be double sided or meshed. Converter also supports plugins if you want to add your own import or export format to it. Whole tool was written in C# with WPF for windows. Source code here: GitHub... TMF (tank model file): Format I have been using for TankGame. it can support up to 256 meshes in single file where each one can be 256 verts, 256 quads and 256 materials. Materials can be solid color or reference to texture file (textures are not packed in) Edit: Attached usage sample "demo - island.zip" for jo-engine | ||||

NOTE: entry was updated on 31.12.2021 15:15 GMT, please redownload. Reason for updating: message is shown if launched in incompalible version of Yabause emulator, some sprite and text rendering crashes are fixed. Unfortunately, i was unable to make my entry playable in time, so i'm nominating the current state. Please be aware that some features are still missing (like sound), and others are broken (like script jumps and sprite cache). To make the assesement easier, i added the optional scene selection menu at the start. WARNING: game includes NSFW stuff. The entry is a port of the "Everlasting Summer"... visual novel to the Sega Saturn. The original game is distributed under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0, so I am keeping this license for the entry. To make the port happen, i had to implement the custom engine based on Yaul... library, distributed currently under MIT license and available at GitHub - hitomi2500/libsvin: Sega Saturn visual no.... This repository commits list should help estimating the annual work. I'm not sure which cathegory this entry should go to. It's an original game engine, so it might fit into original games. But strictly speaking, it's not an original game, but rather a port, so it could probably be sorted into hacks&mods. I'm leaving the decision of including this work into any nomination (or excluding it) to the contest authorities.  I thank everyone in the SX community and discord (my name there is hitomi2500), you've been very helpful, friendly, and professional (and sometimes unprofessional in a good sense). See you next year. Special thanks go to @EmeraldNova... for bringing the contest into existence, and to @mrkotfw... for writing Yaul, the opensource system library for Sega Saturn. | ||||
