Adrenaline Factor

1995 Mirage

Platform: Amiga CD32

A short entry thanks to Grzegorz Antosiewicz of a cool isometric action game with a mix of strategy, where you control between 1-3 tank drones and must complete various objectives including destroying a number of marked buildings and other targets.

One of the main features of the game was the destructable environments, where some walls would remain solid and bulletproof to prevent you reaching your goals too soon.

Castlevania Resurrection

2000 Konami

Platform: SEGA Dreamcast

A short post on what should have been the 17th Castlevania title and released on the SEGA Dreamcast back in 2000, where you were to control Sonia Belmont and Victor Belmont in a 3D third person title.

Recently we were informed about a website that has been set up recently to try and preserve all information on the game, which you can find at:

https://drmarchive.netlify.app/crp/start-home

So far the site contains a series of sketches, screenshots and various footage – as well as part of the development story so far. Over time it is expected that more information will be added, and it is hoped that something of the development itself will be saved some day.

Just months later after this post, something was indeed saved – a playable beta surfaced which you can see in action over at: https://www.sega-dreamcast-info-games-preservation.com/castelvania-resurrection-dreamcast

This is fantastic news, and it is hoped that now the game itself will be dumped and shared with the community!
