Brutal Pico Race - Another Pico-8 game comes over to the Amiga via BSzili [WIP]

Following on from our previous PICO-8 news story, as BSzili has began porting the rather enjoyable PICO-8 futurist racing game, Brutal Pico Race, over to the Commodore Amiga.

The release adds yet another impressive trophy to BSzili's growing portfolio of high-quality Amiga demakes and ports.
