GOAT Store Publishing to announce 2006 / 2007 projects After Dan Loosen finished his speech entitled "Welcome to the Show" he will have only a few hours on Saturday before stepping back up to the podium... this time, as the head of GOAT Store Publishing ready to make the biggest Dreamcast announcement in years as he reveals the plans that the GOAT Store have for upcoming projects in 2006 / 2007. GOAT Store Publishing has kept very secret about upcoming Dreamcast projects other than the GOAT Games compilation which has so far had mimimal information released about it. That will all change at 4:00 on Saturday when Dan reveals details on 10 upcoming Dreamcast projects that GOAT Store Publishing expects to release over the next year and a half. Many of the upcoming games that will be revealed are games which have never been seen or discussed before, and during the speech there will be exclusive gameplay footage of some of the games. A few games will be playable in the DreamCon section of the show immediately following the speech. The games will cover all different sorts of genres and gameplay styles. "I think people will be very surprised when they see some of what we have in store to reveal," stated Dan Loosen. "Developers are really grasping how the system hardware works, and there is a lot of exciting games in development that we are excited to announce!" The GOAT Store, LLC will also be releasing signed copies of two of their most recent Dreamcast releases -- Inhabitants and Maqiupai -- at the show. The signed copies are hand numbered and limited to only 100 copies, and have never been put on public sale before the show.

True, ten games is impressive for that amount of time. But I hope each game is developed fully and not rushed to meet a certain launch date. | |||

I don't mean to be Mr. Pessimist here, but GOAT Store also said that they were going to reveal lots of info on GOAT Games right after that sheep game came out (I'm tired lol). But I look forward to them proving me wrong, however. | |||

Interesting, I wonder how they got past the legalities for the Project Firestorm shooter. That project was dead a while back when the developers ran into legal trouble. I guess they just started porting the game without the original developers permission.
I had seen DCASTLE in development for a long time. I remember stumbling across it a few years ago. It is cool that this game will finally be coming out. On point I would like to bring up: I don't understand the guy in the wheelchair. It contrasts drastically with the colorfull layout of the rest of the game. So far, the few games published by Goat-Store had an overall polished feel to them. While not pro-grade, they still felt complete from a design standpoint. Especially Maqiupai. I am wondering how many of these games will really be finished, or come off as amateur / unpolished. I hate to say it, but the Dreamcast Independent dev scene needs more artistic vision. They are making good strides in terms of programming, but the graphic design and game art is so sub-par. In any event, I am really anxious to see what happens with the Project Firestorm shmup. |

you would have thought, with these games being independant that they would try to take more risk's (arguably developing them for the DC is a risk hehe) but meh. I'd like to how te 3d fighter will work.
