Developer GASEGA68k has just released a demo of an F-Zero-like game running on the Sega Genesis. This is a fully playable demo that works on real hardware and shows off the “mode-7” style of scrolling that was implemented.
This demo was completed about eight months ago and is just now being made public. The developer hopes to make it into a new Genesis game, as opposed to an F-Zero port.
I personally tested it on my triple-bypassed Genesis 3 via a Mega Everdrive x7 and it worked great! For a quick look, check out this gif (limited to 30fps) that shows the two viewing angles, as well as scrolling! For a closer look, I uploaded a clip that I captured via direct-RGB and scaled to 11x to 4K, just for the heck of it!
Here’s more info and links to where you can download this ROM yourself!:
