With Ghost Blade HD out on modern platforms I highly doubt Hucast shut it's doors and ran with our money. I think someone forgot to renew their domain registration :|

But I doubt he's still making DC stuff, I put a msg on his facebook page asking about that, somewhere in november or so, and he never replied...

It makes sense if he stops making Dreamcast games, guess his sales have declined over the years. That being said I do hope he will finish Redux 2 for Dreamcast, seeing I did pre-order that one =)

I think he shot himself in the foot with the Dreamcast. I'm not surprised if he's abandoned Redux 2, since he removed all reference to the Dreamcast from the Facebook page some time ago. But to be honest, I think he's lost the trust of the DC community as a whole. And let's be honest, Redux 2 looked like yet another reskin of Dux to begin with.

It says HucastGames fb page is not available anymore...I think hucast domains are down for a reason, only twitter account is still active but it has ghostbladegame.com site now as a link to homepage and it seems like their oher games video trailers are deleted or hidden at HucastGames youtube channel. Well i think it is not good at all because it is Dreamcast history. Im wait for Redux 2 and buy it when it comes out. I guess they are still busy with Ghost Blade HD promotion but after that lets hope they finish most likely last Hucast Dreamcast game...

So apparently three days after we discussed this, Hucast posted on their Facebook page that they are having "technical problems with the production of Redux 2." They said they were trying a new polygon bases engine, and it wasn't really working how they want.

So good news, I guess, is that Redux 2 is still being worked on. Potential bad news, I guess, is that they didn't specify any platforms.

I guess, again, we'll just wait and see.
