The Western home computer versions of Super Hang-On were released between 1987 and 1989 for the Amiga, Amstrad CPC, Atari ST, Commodore 64, IBM PC, Macintosh and ZX Spectrum. They are all based on the 1987 arcade game, Super Hang-On.
In Europe these versions were published by Electric Dreams and in North America, Data East, Software Studios developing most of the home parts bar the DOS and Macintosh versions, which were handled by Quicksilver Software.

History
Release
The Commodore 64 version of the game was withdrawn from sale due to poor reviews[9].
Versions
The Macintosh version is notable not only due to it being one of the few Sega ports to be released on the computer, but because it features a level editor. It is however the least accurate - it does not share the same structure as the arcade version and is controlled entirely by the mouse. It also has no music and the visuals are predictably in black and white.
