Super Stunt Cycle 5-26-89

 

Over a month has passed yet this demo looks exactly the same as the 4-14-89 version, but that's because all the changes are behind the scenes.  The Top Rider controller is now integrated into the game engine and the player can move the background around the screen.  Unfortunately since emulators don't support this unreleased controller it's not possible to show it.  Upon startup the screen will briefly flash 123456789ABCDEF but that's all you're going to see in this demo without the Top Rider controller.  With the controller plugged the bottom of the screen would show debug numbers relating to data coming from the controller port and allow the player to move the background around.  Interestingly when the road is scrolled too far off the screen it becomes distorted and looks like a bunch of horizontal lines.

It is unknown if Super Stunt Cycle ever went any further than this demo as the game was falling behind schedule (it was due in approximately three weeks from the time of the demo). 

 

This is all you're going to see without the special controller

 

With the controller you can drive around

 


But go too far and this happens

 

Notice the different numbers and letters in the readout?
