Can I play this on consoles? On mac?

When will you finish this project?
We do not have an official timeline as of now. Right now we are in the beta phase (45%) which was released in August. Obviously the more people that joins us, the faster we can complete this project!

Where can I find the sprites/backgrounds/music, and can I freely use them for my own projects?
Although all sprites and backgrounds are open-sourced, they are coded into the game and you will need certain software to rip it. If you manage to rip it and use it for your projects, please give credit to the creators. Music, on the other hand, is a licensed product and we do not have any rights to them.

Is this an official/licensed game?
This is not a licensed game. Rurouni Kenshin, Samurai X, るろうに剣心 is a property of Nobuhiro Watsuki, Shonen Jump, and other affiliates associated with the manga, anime, and its games. All contents shown are free and fan-made for entertainment purposes.
