Sonic Robo-Blast 2 (http://www.srb2.org/), a 3D Sonic fangame based on the DooM Legacy code base, has been ported to the Dreamcast. However, since this is a beta, please note there are bugs:

- Gamepad support is still very problematic. While not required, it is reccomended you use a Keyboard.

- With using SDL, the framerate isn't very good. Normally, SRB2 runs locked at a max of 30fps. Here, framerate depends on the size of the room, with an average of 10fps. (The coders mentioned they are going to abandon SDL for the Dreamcast port in the future, which should increase speed in future versions)

- It seems to crash after playing a few maps.

- There's no sound yet.

The Dreamcast beta binaries and elf can be downloaded here (http://www.lawrencegearheadz.org/~logan_gba/SRB2/DC/SRB2DC.zip)

Finally!

I've been waiting for this port to be finished for nigh on a year now.

I'm hoping that there'll be some kind of netgame support in the DC port... It's one of the major attractions of the PC version.

...Heh. Who am I kidding? :(

Wow, I'm surprised this got ported! Awesome job whoever did this. I'll be with my Dreamcast in about a week so I might try it out soon, or I'll ship it back over here and try it out then.
