[triverse]

Apparently there is a 2D, overhead, action RPG coming to the Sega Dreamcast.  The developers cite Alundra, Lufia and Grandia.

Same. I don't like RPG's but this looks great!

That looks awesome and I love the art style! Hopefully it gets a physical release

I reckon it could, maybe they will do a kick starter for such a thing? But with kick starter taking up to 20% of the pot, they need to make sure they cover the production run.

If they did I would back that kickstarter in a second 

[triverse]

Kickstarter gets about 20% then another 5% to Paypal not to mention any taxes they will have to pay.  I Amin Arkansas which carries an additional 5% local income tax and a 20% Federal Income tax.  For me, for instance, half would be lost before I ever saw a penny.  These guys are in Belgium, I think so they would be hit even harder with income taxes on any Kickstarter funds.  It becomes pointless really quick.

Now i am liking the look of this.

Game Description:

Besides JnB-Reblobed the Action-J-RPG Saviour is our main project in development right now and has been since early 2011. We were learning alot in terms of game design, graphics and programming over the time and naturaly had to redo some of our early work we had done for the project.

We dont want to spoil you anything so we wont go into detail regarding the storyline right now. You will know soon enough what its all about!

In the end Saviour is planned as a hommage to classic RPG games from the Super Nintendo and Playstation-Era. At that time we enjoyed our first glances at titles like Lufia, Grandia, and Alundra. Our continued love for those kind of games and the wish for new generations to enjoy something that we loved back then is our reason to do our own interpretation of this classic-genre.
