Xtreme Racing is a kart racing videogame created by Siltunna Software exclusively for Amiga and published in 1995.
The game is inspired by the famous Super Mario Kart, released for the SNES in 1992. Still, the style and settings are entirely different: much less "cartoony" and with some nasty guys called Aikaro, Bowe, Weazel, Kurzon, and Davina as pilots instead of Mario, Yoshi, Bowser, and friends.
But apart from this, the game has everything you might ask for, including 20 tracks (plus 20 additional tracks released with version 2.0), eight different cars, several competitions, and more. It supports two or 4-players split-screen mode and eight simultaneous players with 2 Amigas. Not mentioning the other weapons you can use against your opponents, the track editor, and more. In terms of features, it's even superior to Super Mario Kart.

Holiday Lemmings, also known as Xmas Lemmings 1993, is a holiday edition of the classic puzzle game created by DMA Design. It was published during the festive season in 1993.
The game engine is the classic Lemmings (despite in 1993 Psygnosis also published Lemmings 2: The Tribes) but, as you can imagine, the game has a Xmas theme: the little lemmings are dressed as Santa Claus, the scenario is full of snow, and the background music is made of remixed holiday songs.
The previous Xmas Lemmings editions were just demos, with few levels, but this time 32 new levels are available. Initially released commercially, the game was published later as freeware.
