This is a port of OpenJazz for the Sega Dreamcast.

OpenJazz is a free, open-source version of the classic Jazz Jackrabbit™ games. OpenJazz can be compiled on a wide range of operating systems, including Windows 98/Me/XP and Linux. To play, you will need the files from one of the original games.

With the demise of DOS-based operating systems, it has become necessary to use emulators to play old DOS games. Jazz Jackrabbit™ deserves more - and would benefit greatly from new features.

OpenJazz was started on the 23rd of August, 2005, by Alister Thomson - http://treacle.hewwo.com/jazz/oj/index.html. Academic pressures put the project on hold for several months, but OpenJazz is now back in development for the foreseeable future.

Burn the scrambled bin with the pc dos datafiles on the root of the cd.
Support is for Jazz Jackrabbit: Shareware Edition
Jazz Jackrabbit: Christmas Edition
Jazz Jackrabbit: Holiday Hare '95

Enjoy,

I tested it both on the dreamcast and pc, however the Episode X (xmas) will only work on OpenJazz for windows, the dreamcast version will only show a grey screen.

Alright i finally got to test out Holiday Hare 95 the only problems i find with this is the frameskip is way to high its not smooth its playable and thats fine enough. Another problem is i fall down in this ditch all the time where you got 2 red jumpers that i guess are supposed to lodge you up to another spot.

For some reason i'm not able to land on any spot and i'm stuck in the ditch and its right at the beginning of the game. I may have no clue what i'm doing here and could be doing this wrong any clue whats up?
