You're right, the scene hasn't posted about those releases....
does that mean the scene is out of date?

C'mon Wraggs, you're usually on the ball with this stuff.

Just kidding bud :P (check out the link I posted - nice little game). It's quite surprising the small stuff we miss concentrating on the bigger releases.

Bin scrambled or unscrambled no readme? Sent it using my coders cable and it did not work. Scrambled or unscrambled.

Whats it made with the little game?

Ian - don't you have fackue's file checker? It's a handy little thing to keep around.

It's able to check 95% of the bin files out there, and determine whether or not they are scrambled. you can get it from http://www.consolevision.com/members/fackue/

Well, SBI's are a definite possibility. Let me see what I can do about that.

Well, there is a screenshot of oceano right here (http://3e8.org/hacks/dc/oceano-ss.png)

EDIT - Ian Micheal - fackue's file checker says that all four of them are unscrambled binaries.

SBI's have been added to Sbiffy!. They are located under the "Demos" section. They are as follows:

Oceano-01_CG.sbi
Punch-01_CG.sbi
Serpent-01_CG.sbi
Shooter-01_CG.sbi

According to this guy's site, he is the same guy that brought us brkout and tuxnes-dc. I am interested to see what these are.

I wouldn't really bother with individual pages for the demos, maybe it'd be better putting them all in one or add them to the Zarya page, at least that's a game (nice too) :).

3 screenshots of Zarya:

so "zarya" is a game? I'm guessing that's the thing you linked to above. I put that in the demos section (that's the one called shooter).
