Road Avenger is a classic arcade game that has been well-received on various platforms, including the Amiga.
The game features stunning graphics, enhanced sound effects, and fast-paced gameplay. The Amiga version is a faithful port of the arcade game, with well-drawn graphics and smooth animation.
It looks nicer than the Sega CD version in HAM video (converted from a LaserDisc rip) since IIRC the Sega CD can only play back video in 16 colours.
Story
Players assume the role of an angry cop on a wild ride as he pursues a gang of bikers who killed his wife. Players need to race through oncoming traffic, squeeze between trucks, trash motorcycles and steer through lots of explosions. The only thing needed are quick reflexes to follow the instructions on the screen (with an increasing difficulty) in order to keep the animation going.
The action is shown from a first-person view and fast-paced, while still maintaining smooth and detailed anime drawn graphics.
