Hi,
I've spent the past 6 months working on a shooter for the Amiga inspired by the classic Xbox game geometry wars. I tried to design in so that it could be ported easily to other retro platforms and so it doesn't contain any Amiga specific code, it's all written in C++.
I would love to see an Dreamcast port if anyone wants to do it.

Build requirements are:
1) SDL 1.2 with basic OpenGL support
2) SDL Mixer
3) I think that's about it
4) Oh, C++
For the Amiga it uses a 640x480 resolution and a 16 bit color depth (the Amiga has no 3D hardware support so I used Mesa).

For a Dreamcast port you could obviously change the ships control because you have an analog stick and you could do a much better interpretation of the original game's control.
