DESCRIPTION
SuperTuxKart is a Free 3D kart racing game, focusing on fun and not on realistic racing physics. Race with your kart on more than 10 tracks against Tux and his friends and be the first to cross the finishing line. With many items you can make sure that you will win. You can play with up to 4 friends on one PC racing against each other, or just try to beat the computer.

See the great lighthouse or drive through the sand and visit the pyramids. Race under water or in space, watching the stars passing by. Have some rest under the palms on the beach (watching the other karts overtaking you :) ). But don't fall in the volcano.

You can do a single race against other karts, compete in one of several Grand Prix, or try to beat the high score in time trials on your own.

    RATTUS  96 MEGABYTES!! FOR THIS?

    Now that thats out of the way, it's also: horribly uninspired and slow as molasses.

    I approve of the open source movement and I'm sure that technically this game is quite an achievement. But in it's initial state SuperTuxKart is a joke. I will try it again once it hits a proper 1.0 release (hoping for better things from the developers!)  (Version 0.3)

    **...

    THEE ALEX  I downloaded this hoping that it would be a serviceable replacement for Super Mario Kart from back in the days of the SNES. It ran fine on my 2GHz MacBook with 2gb of RAM, no glitches, no slowing down, no problems at all.

    In the end though I've uninstalled it due to the lack of motor sound when the buggy is going, I found it hard to feel interested when the buggy rumbled around the track in almost silence.

    However, I did go and go and find a rom of Super Mario Kart which runs like a dream on my SNES emulator so I guess I have SuperTuxKart to thank for that!!  (Version 0.3)

    ****.

    EINGEBILDET  This is a fun game, though requires a lot of processor power to run properly, which I found surprising. On a G3/500 that normally runs a lot of open source games without serious glitches, this stutters and stumbles all over the place, even in 800x600 mode with no music.

    I suggest going over to the SuperTuxKart site and getting 0.3 - it plays smoother and has Hexley! For those who don't know, Hexley is the mascot of DarwinOS, otherwise known as the guts of OS X!!  (Version 0.22)

    COMMUNICATOR  Would not launch on my G5 Dual 2.0. Attempting to run from the DMG tried to work. Copying to a directory, it would not launch. It got to the video resolution screen, but did nothing.

    If it would launch, then I might have more of a review.  (Version 0.22)
