I got this cart racer a few days ago and ended up spending a whole day playing. In terms of mechanics, I think it gives even newer Mario Kart titles a run for their money, plus it has mod support so players can make their own tracks, characters, and vehicle options. And the base tracks are nothing to scoff at, they work for both novices and speedrunners, with parts of the track unlocking as laps are completed

It's closer to Crash Team Racing than Mario Kart but ya its in a very good spot in Early Access atm despite the smaller player base. Luckily there's so much offline content to do now. I heard that it supports 8 player split screen but I haven't tried yet.

The only gripe I have with the game is the weapons system. Everything locks on which sucks since there's no rral defensive options like in Mario Kart and you can't lay down traps to protect yourself in first place either.
