The FreeSCI Dreamcast Snapshot page moved. It is now integrated with the main page.
The snapshots will occur less often, and the details of the release are no longer present. However, the good news is the page states that a snapshot will only occur when a significant change is made to the Dreamcast build.
There's a snapshot available for the stable build that was posted a few days ago. A snapshot for the glutton branch is not yet available.

Quzar's port of Shippy1984, an old-fashioned static shooter based on the arcade classic Galaxian, and intended as an entry into the second annual Dream On contest, has been updated with vastly improved controls and a few other fixes and additions. The binaries download now includes both scrambled (burnable) and unscrambled (raw) files. A CDI (DiskJuggler) image is also now available, as the Screamcast team considers it good (and stable) enough to warrant a burn. Either version is burnable with Screamcast's recommended program, BootDreams.
Also, Screamcast would appreciate rumble pack testing with any third party brands you may have; as many as possible. So far it works with Performance brand, but not with Sega Jump Packs. Quzar would also appreciate any hints on how to make rumble support more stable.

News from Rockin-B
The competition is heating up! Within this month, all entries must be submitted to C4_2005@rockin-b.de. So hurry up!
You know all entries will be put on one C4 CD for SEGA Saturn. People who make an entry can provide custom media to present their game on the C4 CD:
a screenshot thumbnail (64x64 pixel, a transparent color can be used)
a fullscreen image (352x224 pixel) showing controls and further info
short textual description (8 lines of 20 characters each) for title, version, author, features, ...
an audio file that's played when your entry is highlighted
a readme text file
All of this stuff is optional, but I recommend to at least provide a thumbnail and text description. If you don't provide the data, noone else will create it for you. Instead ugly "Not found!" messages are displayed.
Good luck!
The better one wins...

In light of the 0.8.0 release of ScummVM, which requires the additional SKY.CPT file to run Beneath a Steel Sky, the ScummVM team has updated the archive of the freeware CD version to include this file, and while they were at it, updated the data files to the last-known released version of BASS, which should fix some text issues that appear when playing the game in non-english languages.
You can download it from the downloads page on scummvm.org (whenever the SourceForge mirrors pick it up), or download the SKY.CPT file separately here.
This freeware version is the entire game of Beneath a Steel Sky, and is completely playable and completable with the Dreamcast version of ScummVM.

The release is to commemorate the one year anniversary of the GP32 release, which was released for the GBAX 2004 Coding Competition. The Dreamcast version is released for the 2nd annual Dream On Competition. The game's concept is as follows: The game consists of a 20x12 playfield which is filled with various types of blocks. Your job is to make the blue blocks disappear from the playfield by stepping on them. There are five main types of blocks, where each of them will behave differently.

BlazeHedgehog has released a new utility for Apple II Soul Captor. This utility, made with Multimedia Fusion, will create a disks.xml file for use with the emulator.
The disks.xml is the list of disk images you have on a disc. This utility automates the process, rather than making you create a file by hand.
Download it from here.

3) Emulator Creation - Create or port (with the author's explicit permission that this be allowed to enter into the contest) an emulator for any system for the Dreamcast.
4) Anything Goes - This is the fun category. Create anything that isn't included in the categories above (BOR Mods, Games Created in Fenix, Doom/Quake mods, emulators, ports of existing software (with author's explicit permission that this be allowed to be entered into the contest), Applications, Multimedia Software, and anything that you can imagine that we hadn't covered in the above.
