Game announcement: Arcade action game 'Turbo Santa'
After the huge success of Turbo Tomato, John Girvin of Nivrig Games has announced his next game for the 68k Amigas: In Turbo Santa, the player must fill in for Santa Claus, who has fallen asleep, and try to deliver presents in time to save Christmas.

The story: "Christmas Day has come to The Garden. The children are starting to wake up and wander around, still half-asleep, looking for the presents Santa has left them. But none are to be found!

Gather magical gifts as they appear and toss them to the dreaming children. Don't miss, and watch out for the GRONCH dashing around stealing presents! Take too long and the children will wake up to no presents and Christmas will be ruined!"

Turbo Santa (video) has been announced for December and will be available for free. It will require 1Mb Chip Ram and Kickstart 2.04. Music is by DJ METUNE. (dr)
