From Gubble Buggy Racer
A loading screen from an earlier version of the game, back when it was called "Gubble Racing". Given the simple title, this image was likely made right after Data Design Interactive acquired the Gubble license. It is dated October 4th 1999. This graphic can be found in the October 25, 1999 build.
A pretty low-quality billboard, using the game's early logo.
