Love the Atari cover art, reminds me of the days when not every damn piece of contemporary game and comic artwork or graphic novel had an Anime influence. Gritty, kinda crappy, in-yer-face, here's ripped Billy and Jimmy who will kick all sorts of thug ass and save the girl. Just what's needed for a game like that IMHO.

Frankly, I would think it would be better if the characters Billy, Jimmy, Marian and Abobo were in the style of their respective versions of the Double Dragon Fighting Game for the NeoGeo, changing at least the characters' heads to be these versions. Since I see that even Abobo is using the voice of the NeoGeo version. Billy, Jimmy could use these voices too or even extra voices made by an AI voice generator.

Just be patient and wait for a retropie update including FbNeo or Mame that will officially support the demo.
Yeah.. emulators generally don't support new roms out of the box that's sad ^^

Hello @Johnny16Bit @NeoCverA , is there any way to make a partnership so that @iq_132 can handle the port of this game to the Neo Geo CD? Let’s make this happen.

I'm sure if they really wanted to do a multi-load CD game, they could lol. Read between the lines, it's effort with little payoff.

The sun has risen in the Pacific

Short version: download teh |20mz!!!

Long version: click spoiler

Spoiler:

We've just updated our pages on itch.io, and as promised, that includes the Double Dragon One page. The ROM of the completed game is now available for free download from:

Just like our very first game, The Eye of Typhoon - Tsunami Edition:

You'll also find the new pages for Bad Dudes, with a fairly well advanced demo that allows you to play the first two levels

and one for In The Hunt, with, in its case a demo showing very early work.

So, once again, we're offering a complete game, the development of which we carried out from start to finish without asking anyone for a single cent of funding - and with an asking price of $0.

Of course, we still hope "the community" will appreciate the effort and be willing to support us in return, and we want to thank again those of you who already have, one way or another!

So if anyone wants to encourage our work, there are many ways to do so:
  • The most obvious way is to make a donation via itch. This can be done with any ROM download (not necessarily the first one, on a blind basis); you are therefore free to decide to give nothing, a little, or more, depending on your budget and how much you value the work done. You can do this for any of the projects, either to reward a completed game, or to show your interest in one that is in progress. You will see a "goal" on each page, which is there more to provide a transparent overview of the donations collected than anything else; no formal commitment is associated with it, even if we promise you at least one other full game if the funds raised are significant.
  • An alternative to the coin in the hat is simply to buy one of our paid games. The Cyborg Force and Captain Barrel ROMs will be on sale @ 50% off to download from itch from Sept 1st till the end of the year. For those allergic to digital content, I've also opened a pop-up store in the marketplace section, where I'm offering - exceptionally - physical copies of those games. Again, you can find stuff at all prices, from little CDs to big carts. Yes, these are all that will be on offer for now... :)
  • Finally, if it's not the will to help that's lacking, but money, you can simply promote us by sharing messages, links, and information wherever and however you want.
Thanks lots & have fun :)

Is Double Dragon any good on Neo Geo? I've only played the original arcade.
The officially released Double Dragon game from Technos from back in the day on the Neo Geo is a one-on-one fighter, and it's okay. It has its fans.

The new homebrew Double Dragon One seems to have gotten positive feedback so far.

Played through it the other night. Its not bad, but has its flaws.

Too easy to beat the final boss, just stunlock the guy and down he goes after a while. Its also pretty short, only like 7 levels, and its got "Beta" at the bottom of the screen where the difficulty level would be. Id rather have the option to turn that off (unless it has it and Im not seeing it).

Its fun though. I enjoyed it.
