But its not a official game its another fan game (along the lines of Streets of rage remake).
So bedroom codein is still goin strong in these days of massive company's churnin out the same old shite with a different number.

This will be using TheSonicRetard's NeedleMouse engine.
The engine is going to be using a colour palette system with 256 simultaneous colours on screen at once, and all the spites are going to be based on the original games colours, but with four levels of lighting.
No plans for how it's going to be distributed as of yet, they aren't looking that far ahead. They really are just doing it out of love for the game.
Sega have a history for looking at fan-made projects like this and hiring teams based on it. Really, this type of thing would sell bucketloads on the various digital distribution platforms, it would be crazy to not give these guys jobs in this humble bloggers opinion.
The end goal is to remake the entire game, and with the passion and talent shown so far, I cannot wait to see the end result.
