Hi all!

I have released a little demo for the Sega VMU, which (if I am not mistaken) included the first ever filled 3D on the VMU!

If you don't feel like transfering it using Dream Explorer, here is a video on YouTube:

Sadly these batteries have a short life. I don't play with the VMU's since years ago. I used them mainly for Chao Adventure and Chao Adventure 2 :)

Very cool, I like demos like this one very much. Really good work, full of different graphic effects, excellent!

Some years ago, I wrote some VMU stuff, too. Among that, a wireframe 3d engine, movie de/compression and greyscale display.

I'm very glad that finally someone else is releasing stuff for VMU, and what brilliant it is! Are you going to release your source code? As I experienced with the VMU All Stars, the output of vmu disassembler is sometimes not enough.

Have you got plans on making additional releases for vmu? I guess a lot of people would appreciate that.

Thank you for your comments!

The source code is not really releasable, it is more than 18.000 lines of code (much unrolled!) and data in one big mess! :p

I do have some ideas for more VMU stuff, but at the moment I am occupied with coding for the VIC-20! :D
