October 2023 - Turbo Sprint

[NinjaKat]

AGA Game of the Month for October 2023, is Turbo Sprint!

This month we have both Bathurst and the Gold Coast 500, so thought I would do a racing game!  This one looks great!

Turbo Sprint is based on the classic arcade game Super Sprint.  The game features 8 tracks that range in difficulty, up to four players can take control of either a Blue, Red, Yellow or Green car.  Cars that are not controlled by players are computer controlled.   When all 8 tracks have been completed the game loops back to the first track but the difficulty is increased with various obstacles and increased speed of the computer controlled cars.  New players have the opportunity to join a race after each track has been completed.

Well...  As I said very proud owner of the Boxed Game! (Not played until today!)

Oh, my is it hard or what - well for me anyway! 

I'm assuming you have to complete races to get on the score chart 

Well, Best Lap time we could manage was - 14'0 seconds!

*On a stock Amiga 1200 with Ram Card only (Hard drive installed).

Good job Intangybles!  I spent ages trying to get this on my A1200 until I realised it needed to run in NTSC... which I dont think my 1084 will do (or at least I didn't want to attempt).  Without time to run in WinUAE or other means, I will have to leave this one this month!

Again, just for future reference, please confirm the rules for playing.  For example, you could say:
"Played 1 player on 'Easy' track, on an A1200."

Thanks for that! Yes I finally understand what you are looking for in the submission  I'm a bit thick I know! 

And I confirm - 1 Player on the 'Easy' track, on a stock A1200.
