    So homebrew fans what has been your favourite homebrew game released this year?

    For me it's Impulse X on the Jaguar, I have been playing it regularly since I bought it!

    Special mentions for Tube: SE (also Jaguar) and Zaku on the Lynx as I didn't play it until it was re-released earlier this year.

    Well, technically it's an independant commercial game and not a homebrew, but since RVG doesn't split hairs about definitions I have to say Gunlord for Dreamcast.

    Really an excellent game, a great homage to Turrican, and better designed overall than its famous role model imo.

    Also there is Digger Chan for the Master System; it's a quirky little game, and the first real cartridge release of a homebrew on the system, which makes it special. I definitely hope for more homebrews on this great console in the future.
