Managed to get in contact with a dev who requested to remain anonymous. Sadly it seems the "game" was never really a game at all, it was a PC tech demo that was shopped around to various publishers, none of whom were willing to take the risk on it. I sent all the info to Tom so he'll probably include a lot of it in a follow-up.
Here's a screenshot the dev sent me which has never been released. It's from a later build than any of the ones that are currently out there. It definitely looks more polished here.

He said all the games in the DC-UK magazine existed in some form or another. He said he'll try and dig up whatever info he can but if he remembers correctly, Stunt Driver was a PC demo that was pitched for Dreamcast as well as some other next-gen platforms at the time.cloofoofoo wrote: Thats from climax.

Re: Dreamcast Beta Confirm / Debunk List
A couple more to cross off the list:
Woody Woodpecker: Escape from Buzz Buzzard Park
Woody Woodpecker: Escape from Buzz Buzzard Park
Dark EarthUnfortunately, this is a mistake. Nothing was ever planned for a Dreamcast version of Woody.
As a studio Kalisto was pretty supportive of the Dreamcast. Ideas for potential Dark Earth games on Dreamcast were discussed internally but, as far I can remember, never reached any kind of prototyping stage.

Re: Dreamcast Beta Confirm / Debunk List
Looks like there was a Scooby Doo game planned for Dreamcast at one point. I was talking to a dev from Heavy Iron Studios (Evil Dead: Hail to the King devs) and he told me they had a Scooby Doo game in development for PS1 which they planned to port to Dreamcast once completed. Sadly it was cancelled altogether so it didn't get released on either platform. He's going to try and get some more details on it for me so I'll update if I get anything new.
...while we were working on evil dead , there was a game for scooby a team was working on for ps1, which got cancelled. I think the plan was to port it to dc - but because of the cancelling that was that. We laid off half the study and reorganized to focus on scooby Soo for ps2, GameCube and Xbox a year later.

So what exactly is the video of the Dreamcast version of Woody Woodpecker that was posted not that long ago?

Re: Dreamcast Beta Confirm / Debunk List
Thanks for the clarification.
That's some serious optimism, trying to get funding for a sequel to a game that still hadn't even been released - and then wasn't released.
The games industry certainly has it's fair share of head-scratching moments.
