Game description: The future of street racing has arrived with ramps, tunnels, and speeds of 1,000 miles per hour. Powerdrome takes you to this world and straps you into a supersonic flying craft. On the tracks and through the streets, you'll race against a variety of characters--each with their own personality, racing style, and friends or foes. Develop your driving skills, learn new tricks, and continue to shave seconds off your best times as your experience evolves. Once you have honed your skills, race against your friends and find out how good you really are.
Remake of the 1988 Atari ST game by the same name

Game was tested using the 4GB patch. Graphic issue with the game displaying wide vertical stripes that covers the screen and lets only some parts to be visible. The glitched stripes show what could be the skybox. Same thing happens during the ship selection screen. Tested with all renders (HW, SW and OpenGL) without effect. For some weird reason: switching renders in pause screen causes the stripes to go away, but resuming the game, they return.
