Elevator Action 500
https://jotd666.itch.io/elevator-action-500 works (Get an error when exit)

EDIT: got my wires crossed. I was thinking of running the floppy from the menu when I originally posted here.

BUT I got the game running inside AmiBench and it still runs the same as from the floppy, the AGA version runs slow and is buggy, and the ECS version runs at the correct speed but still has the bugs I experienced when running the floppy version.
And I also experienced the crash upon exit.

So yes it works, but in a quite broken state.

EDIT2: After extensive playtesting, I have found that even the ECS version runs slow when running under AmiBench. I also saw many more bugs than when running the ADF from the menu.

So it's even more broken under AmiBench that I thought. I'm going back to the playing the ECS ADF version.

Out of curiosity I tried running the Amiga conversion of Cannonball (an enhanced Out Run engine that uses the arcade ROMs), to see if it works on the A600GS.

AND IT DOES!

The game comes up in an un-resizable window, which at 1080p is barely larger than a postage stamp, but it works!
The on screen FPS counter shows between 27-29fps, which, even on an accelerated Amiga is incredible considering the arcade run at 30fps.

Some sacrifices were made to make it run as fast as possible, it does not have the background graphics or car shadows, and there are no sound effects, with the tunes replaced by simple mod "remakes", but it is 100% playable and far, far better than the crap US Gold foisted upon us back in 1988.

You need to provide a copy of the Out Run revision B ROM set.

I took some screenshots (below), first is 1280x720, then 1024x600, then 640x480.
If you try to change the screen size to 640x480 or lower, make sure you back up Amibench first using the A600GS backup and restore function, as I thought I had borked it myself upon restarting in that res! (it just displayed a constantly flickering AmiBench startup screen until I frantically pressed mouse and joystick buttons trying to get it going)

Get the Cannonball engine here:

Bubble Heroes - NOT WORKING
https://www.lemonamiga.com/games/details.php?id=2144

I have this on original CD.
After much screwing around trying to get this installed and running, it comes up with no display, sound only.
