Game Basic is a very power
programming tool that will allow users to create their very own 3D or 2D
games for the Sega Saturn. Programming can be done on any windows
platform between '95 and XP then sent to the Saturn via a special cable
shown at the bottom of this page.
The main package shown below comes with 2 CDs in the case shown above, 1
of which is the Saturn Game Basic disc while the other disc includes 2
PC tools. One allows you to convert images and sound to Saturn format
while the other acts as a virtual keyboard for the Saturn. This is
really handy since you don't have to go and fork out the cash for a
Saturn keyboard. Just type using the PC and watch the results appear on
the Saturn. Also included in the package are two very thick manuals. One
being a tutorial guide while the other is a reference guide. Finally
there's the Saturn to PC interface cable. Make sure you have the correct
connection on your PC or an adaptor otherwise you'll be doing nothing
with Game Basic.
Finally, the disc that runs on the Saturn has a number of tech demos
including a pilotwings attempt in 3D as well as some sound demos
including music from Game Arts games such as Luna Silver Star Story and
Alisia Dragoon. In fact it's pretty interesting to hear the Alisia
Dragoon tracks in their Saturn incarnation.
