Super Stardust almost had a conversion underway of sorts to the , when a prototype of the tunnel section was released in 2016. Requiring a REU, it sadly never had any serious plans to be finished and turned into a proper conversion.

@gamesthatwerent Cool! Is there a video of the tunnel prototype?

On the Amiga the tunnel was a 3D animation loop that was bigger than the screen, so scrolling across the animation felt like changing position in the pseudo-3D tunnel. Worked great.

@metin Hi there - I did a quick one at https://youtu.be/_y3XP66eCGM

It's pretty amazing :)

@gamesthatwerent Thanks! Looks great indeed! They used the same technique as on the Amiga, scrolling across a larger-than-screen 3D animation loop. 👍
