Gumpha Racing : Game Design : Atari ST

Back in 1989 I designed a spaced-themed "horse racing" game named Gumpha Racing.  The game would have been like one of the old "bet on the odds" style games that I played all the time on my Atari 800.  The graphics were designed using Degas Elite, and  it was going to be developed using STOS.  I was not able to finish the game (the code is lost forever), but the graphics live on.   I still plan to one-day finish this game.

Here are the graphics.  I'm not saying they any good, but they are mine, any they are legitimately from the 16-bit era.

3 frame animations: crowd, winning flag, starting gun

Race options.  Not sure how this would work.
