This is another color hack. I changed some colors to pastel which fits the game and era much better :).

- Changed the car color from orange to red(ish)
- Changed the logo to my liking
- Changed the hud colors
- Best outrunners palette
- Tried to fix some gfx tiles that looked bad after changing the palettes (start for example)
- other stuff that i don't remember(?)

Note: if the patch doesn't work. Make sure to apply it to a rom without header. It should start with F3 ED 56 31 00 DE 18 7C 7B D3 BF 7A D3 BF C9 FF

Hi Slogra, great job! I really love these kinds of hacks and I truly appreciate it. I have a question: could you add some background to Chuck Rock? As you know, the entire background in this game is always black.

Thank you!

Hello slogra.
Wow, that's really good! Congratulations! :-)

Theses colors are very pleasing.

Cool. If Maxim had created a new competition season could be a good entry for hack category.

buuu... the link is broken, it no longer responds, it looks beautiful with those colors!

it seems working to me - try again!

Looks absolutely amazing. I wish that third party devs (and SEGA) had put as much time and effort into all of their SMS games back in the day.
