    Cool Volgarr The Viking released on SEGA Dreamcast

    Was looking about on Retro Collect and came across this nugget of information. It has been officially endorsed by the games developer and ported to the SEGA Dreamcast for free (Read the Read or Die bit on the bottom link).

    Retro Collect :

    "If you’ve ever once felt that the classic consoles were missing out on brand new titles, think again. The impressive Steam and Xbox One retro-platformer Völgarr The Viking has just been given an official port to the Sega Dreamcast and released online for free as a downloadable game disc.

    If you're interested in giving Völgarr The Viking a go on the Dreamcast, you can download the game from Marc Hall’s website and burn the CDI file to a blank CD-R (using software such as ImgBurn or DiscJuggler). Full instructions can be found on the port’s website."

    I downloaded it last night but couldn't find Mark Hall's website at the time but there are mirrors allover for it, comes in at just under 40Mb in size (there is also an expanded 700 Mb or so image if your DC won't read the small one after burnt). To burn the image to play on a proper Dreamcast you will need ImgBurn with the few extra files to enable the burning of CDi images. Info on burning have a look on the Emuparadise forums as there is a quick guide there.

    Just fired it up on my 51" screen on the Dreamcast and it is as awesome as ever!!

    Yeah there is that, such a great machine.

    Played Volgarr this afternoon for quite a while, very well done conversion, looks the part and you would think it was developed for that machine in the first place.

    It's always nice to see the Dreamcast get new games. Time to dust off my Dreamcast for Volgarr then
