Hello /vr/,
One thing that I love about F-Zero are the backgrounds and the atmosphere they convey, so here's the request.
I am looking for games that have similar backgrounds and atmospheres, I mean futuristic cities or alien planet landscapes. Any game genre is fine.
Thank you.

Star Fox 2.
There's only like 6 planets though. Not a lot of backgrounds like that.

Wooooow.

SNES CPU could output more instructions per clock, and it delegated the work to other subsystems, like the Picture Processing Unit--which was a beast.

I'm sure they could have made it fast if they wanted it to be fast.

How in the hell did those programmers give the illusion of the track being above the ground? Can the Super Nintendo have multiple Mode 7 layers?

No. You only got one background layer to play with if you wanted to use mode 7.

Genesis didn't support any affine background transformation. They were doing the scaling/rotation in the SegaCD, and then transferring the resultant picture to the VDP every frame. That's slow.

Axelay stage something. It also features going through a space colony in side view which is one of the coolest looking stages I ever saw
