Outrun - Cannonball
About this entry
Cannonball is a fan-made, open-source engine rewrite for the classic 1986 Sega arcade game OutRun. Developed by Chris White (djyt), it is not an emulator but a complete recreation of the game engine in C++. It allows players to experience the original arcade game on modern systems with massive enhancements, including true widescreen support, 60 frames per second gameplay, and support for modern force-feedback controllers. It requires original arcade ROM files to function.
Outrun - Cannonball is listed as a Decompilations & Recompilations entry in CheckpointDB's preservation database.
It is grouped under Racing, making it easier to compare with related preservation projects and enhanced classics.
