Jet Set Radio Future
Good question, and I don’t know. The credits in the manual don’t include the box art and neither the front or back cover scans have clues. I am almost positive it was art direct from TSR and was probably used on paper and pencil Buck Rogers materials since that’s how the other TSR box covers usually went.
The art was by Jerry Bingham. I thought that was who it might be as his was the cover art for the Buck novels First Power Play (packaged with the game), Matrix Cubed, and, I think, Prime Squared.
I found a page for the original RPG on Amazon and his signature is on the cover art of it:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/0880388471/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_BauVFbJKF1RZ0
(Hard to see without a careful zoom in.)
That’s awesome that you found that! It so strongly adheres to genre art of that era. A great choice!
As for the answers to what I posted - no to both guesses.
Kaboom
River City Rampage?
One of the Street Fighter games? I seem to recall one of them had a background of a brick wall.
No to both! I’ll try to get another one up tonight since tomorrow is Thanksgiving.
Leisure Suit Larry?
No, wait. Manhunter.
No to both - although those guesses are the closest so far.
Under a Killing Moon?
Rise of the Dragon?
Ding ding ding! I think it’s appropriate you guessed it; I believe you posted Heart of China before.
Can’t wait to see what this white knight flanked by hoplites is from!
