Got the PS5 version and wow. I already had it on Switch but the PS5 version at 4k w HDR using the games CRT filter looks insane. This is hands down the best CRT simulation I've ever seen next to M2's implementation.
Arcade game devs, please take note of what JKM Corp did and please let it be the new standard.

This has been on PC for some time, but I've yet to check it out.

Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
Shadow Gangs Zero is an improved and expanded edition that now targets Neo Geo as the lead platform with pixel art aesthetics and more frames of animation. It will also be ported to other systems like the Genesis, the Dreamcast with more colors and rumble support and modern platforms too.
There's no mention of any possibility of the improvements and changes in content making it back to the original game on any platform. It's also a separate project to Shadow Gangs 2.

Hi everyone,
Don't forget to back the Shadow Gangs Zero campaign on Kickstarter if you're into games like Shinobi (1987) and Shadow Dancer (1989). There's only two weeks left:
Shadow Gangs Zero is actually a prequel to the smash indie hit Shadow Gangs (2020). This prequel is being developed for several platforms: Neo Geo, Sega Genesis / Mega Drive, Dreamcast, Steam, Switch, PS5, and current-gen Xbox.
The campaign became fully funded very quickly after it was launched, and there are over 400 backers on board already. Now the fans are trying to have it reach its first stretch goal, which is the inclusion of Hikaru the ninja girl as a playable character !

Anything like Shadow Dancer is definitely getting my attention.
The core campaign ended on September 14, 2024 and was a smashing success. Not only was the project fully funded, but it also surpassed the stretch goal for having the female ninja included as a playable character!
Due to extremely strong demand, the developer has decided to accept Late Pledges for those who missed out during the core campaign. Here's the exciting part... The project is only £6,000 away from reaching the next stretch goal: 2-player co-operative gameplay. This will be a revolutionary feature, as none of the arcade and console Shinobi games had this 2-player simultaneous gameplay.

2-player co-op gameplay has been unlocked. Thanks to all backers for making this happen!
Late Pledges are being accepted for a bit longer, so make sure you join the club while you still can.
The next stretch goal is £120K, which unlocks six mini-bosses: ED Walker, Military Tank, Dragon, Military Helicopter, CannonWall, and Heavily Armed Van.

The pixel art for all 18 levels was completed last month (June), as was the majority of the music tracks. Now in July, level design is well underway and things are progressing very nicely. The Neo Geo version is on schedule to be completed by December 2025 as planned, with the Genesis / Mega Drive version very close behind for March 2026. It was confirmed a couple of months ago that the Neo Geo digital version is compatible with NeoSD PRO, as the developer is personally testing the game with it throughout development.
The campaign is currently at £109K in pledges. It needs to reach £120K to unlock the six mini bosses. Please make a pledge so that you can join in the fun. In addition to the Neo Geo and Genesis / MD, you can also back the versions for these other platforms: Dreamcast, PC (Steam), PS5, Xbox, and Switch.
Visit the campaign page:
Reminder: All backers will have their names displayed on the credits screen accessible from the main menu, as well as on the end-game screens.
Also: Backers of the physical versions for Neo Geo, Genesis / MD, and Dreamcast will receive the corresponding digital versions for free!
