Gredler?!?!?!?! WHY YOU NO GOOD?!?!?!? Cause you went back all-in to work on your cat game with DarkKo, huh ?? ;)

Hahah yeah, let's say that and maybe we will finish it!

Wish I could do more, it's such a fun team to work with, so maybe there will be another collaboration down the road

I don't want to go into too much detail, but work and my upcoming wedding put me out of a realistically reliable role. I would never want to bottle neck the progress of such a rad game!

NightWolve · 07/20/2016, 03:18 AM

Ah, gotcha, that's too bad.

TheClash603 · 07/20/2016, 08:15 AM

Since when do weddings go above obey?

I am looking forward to seeing some new backgrounds though!

Sadly, It's probably just the beginning of a long list of things that will be sacrificed to have a marriage.

Waifus and the marriage alter hath no mercy.

wow the new background for the cave stage is looking awesome as hell!!!! love the onibro statue!!!!

Trenton_net · 07/22/2016, 11:03 AM

The game looks very nice!

Will more animations be added to the main character sprite in the future? I noted that she kind of jumps and moves like a stick figure. If you added more frames of animation to cover jumping, turning from one direction to another, etc, you could probably get it looking very smooth. I'm sure it's probably just a place-holder, but I figured I'd ask anyway just in case. :-) Good work!

OldRover · 07/22/2016, 11:58 AM

Nothing in the game is placeholder, but nothing in the game is immune to revision either.

Next demo is ready to roll out, I think. Game On Expo will be the next place Henshin Engine will be on display.

New Happy Console Gamer video just up talking about the Henshin-Engine game.

TR0N · 08/17/2016, 01:40 AM

All i see is a black bar still and no video. Here's a a direct link all well this video sure will give you're game more attention sarumaru

esteban · 08/17/2016, 07:37 AM

Ok, I left a comment at HCG just to support Team Henshin.

munchiaz · 08/17/2016, 05:25 PM

I should be writing an article about HE soon for a friends website. I will post a link to it soon hopefully. The demo is a lot of fun. I was lucky enough to score one at gameon expo a few weeks ago

technozombie · 08/17/2016, 07:25 PM

The game is looking great. Keep up the good work.

xcrement5x · 08/29/2016, 05:22 PM

Was just watching this video and they name dropped Saru and henshin engine talking about devs with passion! It happens near the last couple minutes of the video.

jlued686 · 08/30/2016, 11:14 AM

You guys are showing the game in my home town this weekend (at LinCon). Sadly, I won't be there. But man...I spent so many hours in the arcade at that bowling alley.

If you get a moment, there's a great place called Sawmill Brewing less than a block south of the event. Check it out!

Seems like a cool dude. Nice, so he worked at Capcom and before that Atari and Primal Rage.

HENSHIN ENGINE KICKSTARTER!!!

kickstarter.com/projects/sarumaru/henshin-engine-the-game-pc-engine-tg-16-pc-steam

Gredler · 09/06/2016, 02:43 PM

I did my best to push it to the other forums I frequent, and will back it when I get paid later this month (too many bonk t-shirts and other unexpected expenses to commit now.)

Good luck Saru, Nodt and anon artist + musicians, you guys deserve to get backed and I wish you all the best!

Get it!!

jlued686 · 09/06/2016, 02:54 PM

I pledged, tweeted, and posted it on some forums. Can't wait!

Groover · 09/06/2016, 03:52 PM

I plan to back it later today after work. I hope they get funded.

SoulflySolid · 09/06/2016, 03:52 PM

Pleged for the physical copy. Looking good so far!

ToyMachine78 · 09/06/2016, 06:05 PM

My pledge is in!

technozombie · 09/06/2016, 06:53 PM

Ok, just backed the physical copy. Looking forward to trying this out.

cr8zykuban0 · 09/06/2016, 09:35 PM

i also pledged as well. i hope this shit gets funded!

sirhcman · 09/06/2016, 10:05 PM

I backed it as well! Keep up the good work Saru and Rover!!

cr8zykuban0 · 09/06/2016, 10:51 PM

made a review on the newest demo of henshin engine about the kickstarter and talking more about the game.

Hope yall enjoy!!!

xcrement5x · 09/07/2016, 03:51 PM

Super exciting! I will definitely try and back it this month.

I'm trying to compare all the rewards between the higher tiers though, I feel like a rewards grid would be very helpful on the Kickstarter page. Is the only difference between the $100 and $140 tier the fact that the comic book comes in color?

sirhcman · 09/07/2016, 07:31 PM

Aaron Nanto posted a great Henshin Engine video!

cr8zykuban0 · 09/08/2016, 02:13 AM

That's an awesome video!!!!

sirhcman · 09/09/2016, 10:26 AM

Henshin Engine made it to 50% funded this morning!! Still 27 days left to pledge!

technozombie · 09/09/2016, 11:05 AM

One of the stretch goals should be an easter egg video of Esteban doing a turbo dooble hidden on the disk. I'm sure pledges would sky rocket.

Nazi NecroPhile · 09/09/2016, 11:13 AM

Heh, that'd actually be cool. The given stretch goals don't interest me at all, as I've zero fucks to give for NOBEY versions and I really don't need to see Saru and Nod hanging out in their underwear drawing and coding Yuki.

Though I'm not a fan of kickstarter, I went ahead and pledged at the $39 level.

OldRover · 09/09/2016, 06:29 PM

It's ok, you won't see me coding in my underwear. I don't wear underwear. The only thing I wear while coding is the soft glow of my dual monitors.

You are now scarred for life.

That's not how you spell 'intrigued'.

its almost 9000!!!!!!!

IT'S OVER 9000!!!

Joe Redifer · 09/11/2016, 04:44 AM

Can one of the stretch goals be a Saturn port coded in assembly using both VDPs? And released like, only 3 weeks later? Seems reasonable.

A Saturn port is possible now that there's Jo Engine.

Are JO-crystals compatible with jo-engine?

I wanna try that Sonic game on that link. Looks badass. They should have done that back in the day right away instead of waiting to attempt a 3D one. but I digress. That's a discussion for elsewhere.

Getting closer!!

Why does the internet have such a hard-on for the Dreamcast? I love the system, i've had mine since the month of launch, but I don't think every retro style game has to be ported to it lol.

I'd much rather do a Sega-CD port and find the best ways to reduce the number of unique colors while keeping everything looking nice. It also suits the premise of the manga and PCE game, being real 16-bit hardware.

It'd also be cool to play as the Mega Drive character and swap out some of the backgrounds inspired by games/series which didn't appear on Genesis/Sega-CD with ones that did.

The first few stages so far are all based on series that appeared on Genesis.

That's a cool idea, and if nothing else would make for a good sequel.
