Amiga

Over on the English Amiga Board, Amiga developers Raster Wizards have previewed their work-in-progress game Hyper Runner, which they describe as “some sort of mix between F-Zero and OutRun”, which are lofty aspirations indeed, and while the humble Amiga might lack the technical heft to pull off the Mode 7 slickness of the SNES classic F-Zero, even when using the enhanced AGA chipset, the footage of the latest build of Hyper Runner serves as a reminder that the Amiga is certainly is more than capable of producing slick, enjoyable arcade-style racers, such as the beloved Lotus Espirit Challenge series and Jaguar XJ220, on both of which this writer whiled away many a happy hour as a teenager.
