I always thought Carmageddon would be a good fit to get a port for the Sega Genesis. Even though the console was a few years old and "newer" consoles were on the market by '97, such as the Playstation and the N64.I always had this idea on the back of my head. So I decided to give it a go!Gain credits by killing peds or running through the checkpoints.There are 3 stages: Maim St. Only features pedestrians to kill, mines to avoid and no obstacles/walls.Max's Junkyard - Features Pedestrians, Mines and a very confusing race course.Coastal Carnage - V1.1 Fixes beach issue! - Mines and pedestrians and a simple layout to race.V1.6 - Changes a few graphics here and there, nothing much. Improves enemy car collision and damage models. The game now handles 100 independent different pedestrians/mines that act independently. Improved performance on crowded areas.All stages are unlocked, and there are 6 difficulties, from Very Easy to Max.Difficulty changes the bounties of the objectives either peds or checkpoints and how many laps/peds to kill before ending a race. If you lose all your HP and credits obtained.Next updates might improve visuals/readability. For now I felt it would be nice for a launch. (I'm not an artist) All Car graphics were done by me, and most of the tiles were an amalgamation of graphics taken from multilple sources. Mostly from here :https://opengameart.org/content/lpc-streets I used the street-dark then modified to fit the MD's color space/pallette.Controls are:A - AccelerateB - BrakeA + B = ReverseX - Repair Car (costs money based on missing hp)Y - Respawn/Reset Car (costs money)Left - Right - Turns.Select stuff on the menu with start button.
