    Basing it off the original Mario Kart is certainly… A choice. The stages being 100% flat is crazy when fun creative stages are the biggest reason people love kart racers.

      i think it looks interesting still, it’s certainly very different from most kart racers these days!

      tho as someone with a potato for a computer, i sure hope this game’s performance is in line with its graphics lol

      Agreed. The trailer emphasizes “player created chaos”, so I wonder if they’re holding back the reveal of a level designer or something. Full 3D tracks probably wouldn’t work with that.

      Yeah that also kinda disappointed me. Especially after seeing this thumbnail I expected something visually more exciting.

      One of the reasons I don’t play the newer mario karts much is I find the levels hard to parse visually. They just cram so much stuff into every frame. I don’t mind having plainer tracks to drive around on if the driving and interactions feel good.
