Dreamcast homebrew

Sega stopped making the Dreamcast in 2001 and released the console's last official game, Karous, in 2007. Unofficial programs continue to come out for the console, many of them being games. Unlike unofficial games for other consoles, many of these games are developed by teams, and cost money.[1]

Developers and publishers

There are some well-known developers for the Dreamcast. Some of them are:

  • Redspotgames, a German publisher that started in 2005, and ended in 2013 because they went bankrupt.[1]
  • NGDEV (previously NG:DEV.TEAM), another German developer and publisher that makes games for the Neo Geo and Dreamcast, and sometimes modern platforms.[2]

Games

Here are some of the games:

  • 4x4 Jam[3]
  • Alice Dreams Tournament[4][3]
  • Dynamite Dreams[5]
  • Elysian Shadows[4]
  • Escape 2042: The Truth Defenders[3]
  • Rush Rush Rally Racing (R4)[6][7]
  • Saber Rider[4]
  • SLaVE[8]
  • Xenocider[4]
