Mini Shenmue RPG for Sega Saturn is a tribute by Titan Game Studios and Poking Life Studio to celebrate the friendship and the journey to make Shenmue 3 a reality.

We are just one year from the Shenmue 3 launch and we thought nothing would be better than celebrate it using the console where the project started in the 90’s.

Thank you for everyone who sent your picture

Test it on your Sega Saturn or using a emulator*:

*Emulator: Works better using SSF, Yabause is presenting some glitches on the sound.

Merry Christmas.

Has someone had a problem after the Sega logo? When I burn a CD, it works fine on the emulator. but when I put on my Saturn after the Sega logo it goes to a black screen. Then I need to reset to go back to the menu screen.

Free talk / Which one is your favorite Saturn Game?

« on: August 30, 2016, 04:33:09 am »

My favorite one is Sega Rally. I've never played any racing game with a game play so perfect like Sega Rally for Sega Saturn, the controls are amazing, the balance is perfect. The only bad thing about this game is that the game is very short.

How about your favorite Saturn Game?

Jo Engine Wish List / Is it possible to play videos?

« on: August 30, 2016, 04:14:59 am »

I think if we could play videos it would make the games much more professional, and if possible to go even further use some video as background, if I'm not wrong the game Sturmwind uses this technique on the Dreamcast.

Project announcement / Project Blaze

« on: August 29, 2016, 12:54:53 pm »

Hi Everyone my name is Luiz Nai, I'm Brazilian living in Australia. I'm a programmer, I've been working on games development in Flash, HTML5 and Unity for 5 years (You can check my works here:www.luiznai.blogspot.com) and now I'm working in a Game for my favorite consoles Sega Saturn and Dreamcast. I'm also a writer for the WebSite: http://www.seganerds.com/

The provisory name for our project is Project Blaze, this game is being developed for Android, IOS, Sega Saturn and Dreamcast. The mobile versions will communicate to the console versions through QRCodes. I'm using the libraries created by Johannes (Jo-Engine) and I'm also trying to convert my own libraries of effects that I have created previously in Flash (Effects like: Rain, Smoke, Particles, etc)...

We want to release our game in September 2017 at Brazil Game show, this exposition is the biggest one in the Latin America, and Brazil is one of the countries which has more Sega Fans around the world, because of the amazing job done by TecToy.

All the sprites used on this video are still provisory, we are creating our tools, improving our code, and making everything a platform game needs to be funny.

I'd like to say thanks to Johannes for creating this amazing project, without your efforts would be impossible to make our project become real on Sega Saturn.
