Hey everyone! Back again with another update to share continued progress on my Star Wars Trilogy Arcade port for Dreamcast. I've begun work on the main gameplay portions, starting with the Episode IV stage. It's still early in development with visual bugs and non-functional scoring, but it has been encouraging to see Model 3 geometry and assets even running on Dreamcast. Please enjoy this short preview!

Hi everyone! Was really happy to get such a great response to my last post regarding my remake/port of Star Wars Trilogy for Dreamcast. I've worked on it a bit more and have mostly completed the Boba Fett duel as a concept for what the Model 3 game might have looked like on the console. Since the last post, I've fixed some visual glitching and added the missing effects, graphics and sounds. It's also been optimized enough to run on real hardware at about 25-30 FPS. Still not completely sure if I can share the CDI file, but you can always PM me if interested. To be completely honest, recreating this stage was probably the simplest part to do of the original game. This is not a decomp/recomp, but rather a reverse engineering of sorts, extracting the behavior and assets from the emulated game. Even when using Claude Code, it will take some time and significant effort to finish the whole game, but I will try! Thanks again for all the great support.

Anyone remember Star Wars Trilogy Arcade? I wanted to share a proof-of-concept I've been working on. With full transparency I've been using Claude Code in conjunction with Supermodel emulator to reverse engineer a port of Star Wars Trilogy Arcade for Dreamcast. It's still a work in progress and I haven't tested on real hardware yet. So far I've only done this Lightsaber stage, and there's missing effects and optimization still needed, but it's a start.
