I forgot about Spin-Out!

...but I think with some help that I can make a better game than it. I spent 3 hours trying to make it so the cars can't go off the track, when I just decided to give up. I believe it can be done, but I can't figure out how. Perhaps someone else can. Anyway, I got two cars in. Their tires rotate like the ones in Motorodeo, round, then slanting. Really fast it looks like animation. The cars face the right way, their tires face the right way, but I just can't make it so you can't go off the track. Besides, Spin-Out! didn't have any animation at all. And I think my game is better looking.

I don't know whether to keep working on this or not, as Spin-Out! exists. I put that cart in after someone told me about it. It looks like my racing game except the colors are wrong and stupid. Even the European + cartridge, while it has more detailed background, the background still looks out of place.

Besides, O2 players can't even play the Euro version without a modded Euro console or emulator. I think my O2 version looks better than theirs. It must be because they had to put 2 other games on the cartridge, so space was limited. And I have about 1.5k left to work with. But come on, a purple background? Where are we racing? Mars? They could have at least made an attempt to make it better by choosing green or yellow instead of a ghastly purple.
