RoadBlasters, another naff C64 conversion.

Hi all, this weeks edition of "Shit Game Time" is a C64 smellyfest known as RoadBlasters which is a paid request by youtuber "Nelli", enjoy!
Arn't all the conversions of this arcade game crap come to think of it?!

problem arises when you use a 1982 computer to convert a 1987 arcade game. Difficult to create something good.

They probably ran out of time and budget trying to get the framerate that smooth The road moves so fast and everything on the road moves so slow...

Ever tried Renegade or R-Type on ZX Spectrum?

Sometimes miracles arrive. But more often we get turds instead. Specially with pseudo-3D material (check SGT on STUN runner )

Turbo outrun did come out pretty good, though, and overall assets are decent so i really suspect a time/budget matter is at play there
