The cancelled #Carmageddon TDR 2000 for #GameBoyColor was among the recent #Nintendo #GigaLeak. Here are a few screenshots of the title. It seems to me like it is substantially better than the previous GBC instalment.

I would have swapped that intro FMV for more car sprites at angles.

Ah yeah, it's sadly mostly all low quality 🤷♂️

Now the City environment. That first painting was also used as the menu backdrop. (also blue complete Tanka in the bottom right corner)
Tez made concepts with a similar atmosphere 15 years later for Carmageddon:Reincarnation.

Today's #screenshotsaturday, three custom effects with @samlittlewood's #BRender blendtables in #Carmageddon: inverting colors, a flame, and b/w filter. It can also work with car materials but then it's kinda buggy.

Zooming in a little.
Using a custom blendtable for the flame makes it translucent alright but respects its colors (instead of simply blending 50% or so with the colors behind).

Some more early shots of #Carmageddon 1. From Next Generation #25 (jan 1997) (pg 125-126) archive.org/details/NextGe…
Earliest screenshots still this way
More early shots from scans. Featuring the Twister and Lead Pumper original textures. (that radiation symbol disappeared with the texture shrinking). Also the original #Carmageddon logo which can still be found in the game (Coastal map).

#carmageddon #gamehistory n420: Sodburbs is an early version of the Frosty Pass Ski Resort. Topology is very similar and many landmarks are already there. But it's a green suburb! Files are still present in some versions of C1.

It is based off this old concept #gameart, by Terry 'Tez' Lane I think. A red version of what would become the Fearari F666 also appears.
And here's a comparison of both versions, it came a long way 🤠
