Das spanische Indie-Studio Retro Sumus hat AMEBA für den Dreamcast (auch für Win, Linux und Ouya) angekündigt. Es soll eine Mischung aus Visual Novel und Adventure werden und einen Detektiv-Thriller erzählen.

Endlich mal ein Spiel, dass mich auch anspricht (und damit meine ich nicht nur das erste Artwork ). Hoffentlich wird es nicht zu sehr Visual Novel, sondern spielerisch etwas anspruchsvoller.Entwickler via Dreamcast-Junkyard hat geschrieben: “How do you investigate a series of murders that may as well have never existed? Or, how can you be sure you haven't lost it, when you're the only cop in your city who thinks several un-connected deaths were not accidental or natural? These are the questions veteran inspector Hugo asks himself on an everyday basis.
I usually loathe visual novels. With the exception of just a few really good ones, they're too ‘Japanese’ for my tastes, culturally speaking. So we're taking the genre in a new direction: no anime-like art, as the teaser poster shows, obviously a more western take on storytelling and characterization, a serious story. Imagine Davind Fincher's Seven meets Frank Miller's Sin City comic books. Well, that's what I'd like, but I'm not expecting to reach that kind of quality!”
