NATIVE is a horizontal 2D sprite based shoot'em up like the old arcade classics R-Type I + II. The original Native was released in demo form for the Atari Jaguar but was never completed. Duranik had plans to develop a sequel for the NUON platform, but VM Labs was reportedly not interested in the game. It's a shame the game never got past the planning stages because the Jaguar demo is very impressive and features amazing graphics. More information on
Duranik and Native, including two conceptual videos of NUON Native can
be found at the Duranik website.
February 2023 Update:
V-SNES on the NUON-Dome forums conducted an interview with Johannes Graf of Duranik regarding Native II and its development (or lack thereof) for NUON. You can read the interview here, or view the pitch document for Native II a.k.a. "Feuerland."
