Compilation of all intro character bio screens
Turbo Toons is like a G-rated love-child made between
Super Sprint/Off-Road and the battle mode from the original
Super Mario Kart. There is very little of anything said about this on the internet, and I think that it's really unfortunate that the little that you do find tends to be all negative.
Some of it is deserved - the characters are a bit big for the pinball type physics of you hit a wall, but I really like the graphics. They're colorful and simple, and look exactly like the characters they represent. They aren't pushing any tech, but they do they're job well.
The music? Well, moving along.
The controls are just fine, but it does take a bit of adjustment after
Off Road and Super Sprint (you push the arrow the direction you want to go, not the direction you want to spin towards), and there definitely is some depth with the diamond-collecting upgrade system.
My absolute favorite thing of this game is the character roster. This has all of my childhood favorites! My sister and I used to watch QuickDraw McGraw and Squiggly
Diddly all the time as kids off of some work out bootlegged
VHS tape. :)
It's also it Yogi Bear, Huckleberry Hound, Atom Ant
... and more, all of them good (and many of them not appearing in any game besides this one). Lots of memories there. This game also supports the multitap, which obviously means more fun with five players all battling it out. The single player can't compare to the sheer chaos of several humans beating each other down.
