Just wondering: Is the boot-disc still a WIP so users with a BBA can also play?

And no, DreamPi is currently no option due to insufficient funds for a modem :(

The boot disc isn't going to allow broadband adapter support. It's just so users with other dial-up connection methods can play. Petter mentioned someone else was working on a modified version of the game with BBA support but I wouldn't hold my breath on that happening unfortunately.

You could afford a modem if you sold that BBA ;)

Nowai :P

Edit: Especially since i totally lucked out on that one: i've seen that a console with 1 Arcade Stick + 10 games had a BBA (visible in the photos if you looked closely) and bid about 70€ on it (BBA wasn't mentioned in the description!), prayed and when it arrived - Bam! Had a BBA :)

This is the game that just prompted me to buy 2 of TacT's USB modems to hook up my old Dreamcast online again. This was a really fun arcade-type game!

I notice you specifically mention 2, be advised you won't be able to connect two DreamPi's in one household.

why is this? You couldn't connect two over wifi or even one using wired and one wireless?
