For a 2d game, it's really looking nice.

Some nice Dreamcast specific details in this months Kickstarter update! And more, of course :D
As you may know, Intrepid Izzy's graphics are made in high resolution and then automatically scaled to a lower resolution when generating the Dreamcast version. Some optimisations have been made to improve colour palette generation and selective dithering to reduce banding.
This sound a bit technical, but you can clearly see the difference in the examples below. Especially when you see the zoomed in picture.

Yeah Roel is doing a great job with this game. Seriously, if you guys haven't yet, you should give the demo a try. Very fun.
