I'm not sure how much demand there would be for a Sega CD or 32X version; if anything we'd be more likely to try a Saturn port, but for now we just want to concentrate on the Mega Drive and Dreamcast versions.
Thanks for the nice words everyone! Xeno Crisis has now hit its third stretch goal, which was the addition of a whole new area and boss, plus translations into French, Italian, German, Spanish, Portuguese (including Brazilian), Dutch and Japanese. We've since added a fourth stretch goal, which we've cunningly labelled "Blast Processing" - it essentially means we'll be able to add more technical wizardry to the game, and also the following features:
- Bonus stage
- Boss rush mode
- Extra enemies
- Speed run seeds
We're also excited to announce that we've added two new add-ons to the Kickstarter - the OST can now be purchased on CD by adding £10 to your existing pledge, and you can also get the OST on vinyl by adding £25 to your pledge! Here's an early mockup of how it might look:
In response to some of your comments / questions:
@celsowmbr - UColecionador's channel looks great - we'll get in touch when the game is closer to being "demoable".
@HarryKS - The platform selection is certainly out of the ordinary, but I think we've shown that there's still a demand for new Mega Drive and Dreamcast content.

With our Kickstarter campaign coming to an end in just a few days we've decided to announce our fifth and final stretch goal, which is to bring Xeno Crisis to the Nintendo Switch and Steam!

Thanks for all of the support, and if you have any questions about Xeno Crisis then do ask.
We'll certainly be looking at scanline options as it would be a nice addition.
That's great, you really look like you are getting things right
We're now into the final 24 hours, so any likes or shares would be very welcome right now, but thanks for all of the support so far. I'll leave you with a quick preview of the next track from the amazing Savaged Regime:
This is great stuff, thanks.
Alright, I changed my pledge to the kickstarter edition, and also added 30 on top of that, so that will allow me to get a physical genesis game/box/manual kickstarter edition, along with a DC/Switch version?
if so i'm good, a bit pricey at 150 US but I don't go into these often
Savaged Regime is doing the OST?This morning we hit the final stretch goal for Xeno Crisis (£65k), which means that we'll be bringing the game to the Switch and Steam!
It's a sadly well-known fact that Sega did a lot of design changes to their boards, many of which were for the worse. The only Model 2 boards with good sound are the VA3 and VA4 revisions.Ha ha, is is that bad? I've yet to hear a direct comparsion, but we will of course be test Xeno Crisis on every Mega Drive variant.
