Total Exhaust

I saw a link to this video on Facebook the other day, looks pretty decent but I'm not 100% sure it's legit - should this be covered by aGTW?

It was not indexed correctly because of typo in title. I found movie clip on some site similar to YouTube and moved it to my YouTube channel. Some EAB user tried to investigate to get more info but I don't know the results.

This game should have HOL entry, even if it was not released it looks very professional.

I think engine sound is from Lotus games like in Super Cars but it was same developer.

That game looks great, would love to see it surfacing! Can someone contact the video poster?

I contacted Jesper a while ago and he agreed to answer some questions about the game. If anyone has an interesting question about the game then post it here and I'll put together an interview.

How much this game was complete? How many persons work on it? How many tracks? Were there plans for special details on tracks like tunnels, gates, different size roads? Were there any plans for menu options? What was the main reason for abandon this project?

That's great news! Good luck with the Interview. I'd be interested in:

Who was the intended publisher
Who owns the IP, if known?
What other Amiga projects did the team work on?
What was the target platform (Amiga 500? 1200? CD32?)
What remains from the project (source code, art assets etc). Has any or all of it been lost to time?
What remained to be done before the project could be completed?
Was anything recycled from the game into later projects?
Is there any potential for the source to be released on the internet?
If not, is there any potential for the binaries to be released on the internet?
And if not, has the project been archived somewhere to prevent it being lost to time (eg the source code to Wing Commander 1, while not open to the public, has been archived by a WC news site)

Edit: The engine reminds me a lot of Lotus, I wonder if it's worth asking if any of the project was derived from other games, or if it was entirely coded from scratch.

It is running on the Lotus 3 engine with no doubt.

Looks a lot like F17 Challenge.
