3D Runner, Skyroads-esque?

I've looking for a game I played on my Amiga 500. I had actually completely forgotten about it until a conversation with my family yesterday.

The only way I can think to describe it is "3D runner." When I discovered SkyRoads, I thought I had found it. This is literally exactly how I remember this Game With an Unknown Name:

But apparently, SkyRoads wasn't released on Amiga, and all of my Google searching has turned up nothing so far.

Any ideas? Thanks!

That link actually brought up another, different game I had also completely forgotten: RoadWars!

Thanks!

But the original one I was looking for was purely single player, and the sole purpose was distance. I don't remember any enemies, the only obstacles being the gaps between road sections and the raised segments you had to jump onto. The path really was exactly like that in the first video link: a flat plane that stretched forever into the distance.

Thanks for everyone's help so far!

I'm starting to think my SkyRoads memories are left over from my DOS days, and that RoadWars is the game I'm looking for.

A bit of memory bleed-through, if you will.

I'll still take any suggestions, just in case!
