Fastest Amiga Games

I am in the mood to play a Fast.... Amiga game

What are the fastest Amiga Games

in terms of screen update, so for example a Driving game that runs really quick (F1 maybe?), or a side scrolling shooter the shifts really quick (bonus level from Turrican II?)


any ideas?

Be sure to check the turbo mode available in Vroom Multi-Player (I suppose it was what DDNI meant) (I never played F1 so I honestly don't know if it is or not indeed faster)

Buggy Boy - it's done for 68000@ 7MHz and has nothing to restrict the game speed and so with a 060 it really flies...

I thought there would be a few games that would work too fast on accelerated machines... Although that is a cool idea, I am looking for games that are naturally fast

What about Tearaway Thomas, the Amiga's answer to Sonic? Strangely it doesn't come with any paracetamol.

There's only one SCR, not counting the updated version with new tracks because that's just the same game really.

Complete the first division, and it's on to the much faster "Super League".

From the WHDLoad readme :
Quote:
- Turbo mode included (toggle with F2)
There's also a 'Stunt Car Racer (1989)(MicroStyle)[f AGA Galahad][h][Stunt Car Racer Turbo]' in TOSEC.
