I just got back from MAGfest 8 in Alexandria, Virginia, and not only was the experience awesome, but I was given a birthday gift from Stevo a.k.a. Level99, Hope Fails, and Moonlapse. Guess what that gift was?
They performed a live rock/metal version of Ecco II for Game Gear’s most prominent theme, no shit. And here’s [...]
Yep, no joke. Expect prototypes from us on a much more regular basis! Here’s a link to the ROM file and documentation! Thanks to Hidden Palace without whom this release would not be possible.
Stay tuned Ecco fans!

Sorry about yesterday, had a bit of a family issue to deal with that ate up all my time. Current plans are to release 0429 tonight. The docs will need a little cleaning up after the fact, but it’s about ready to go.

Less than 5 stages left to document in 0429. We expect to release it this weekend in partnership with Hidden Palace. In the meantime we are preparing Ecco: Sentinels of the Universe for Dreamcast for release, along with 2 other Ecco prototypes for Genesis/MegaDrive.
Stay tuned!
Finished 5 more 0429 stages’ documentation tonight; we’re in the home stretch now. Epicenter out.
Tails151 found a strange glitch in this build– take a look on the Vortex Entrance page of the X11 docs. Two more stages documented in 0429 tonight; getting close! ~15 stages left to go and 0429 will be ready to go.

After 0429, we’ll be documenting/releasing the first May 1994 build [...]
The 0429 prototype documentation is nearing completion and we have a new helper to speed up the process– Magical Trevor X of the Dark Sea BBS. Despite massive hard disk failures and other setbacks we’re finally back on track– once 0429 is up, you’ll be seeing new prototypes from us on a FAR more regular [...]
After a lengthy ‘debate’ with Arkon, I decided to take a piece of his advice. As we work on big things for the site to share with you all, we’ll be posting smaller, more regular updates to keep the community abreast of Ecco news.
Tomorrow I’ll be posting a preview of what’s in store in Ecco [...]
No, we’re not dead. Due to some lovely catastrophic disk failure our work has been slowed down, but we’re still moving forward. Here’s what’s coming up shortly:
- Ecco II Prototype 0429 (April 29, 1994), complete with a ROM and full documentation, same as we gave build X11
- Ecco I Revision 01, with ROM and documentation– [...]
