Happy New Year Karters!

And this can be seen in-game.
Thank you Nintendo 🤪

Yeah you've seen that correctly...
this one is incorrectly placed, probably resulting from a change of track layout without adjusting pillar's position.

Random #SuperMarioKart Fun Fact :
Those are the position of GV2 pillars

We're still working very hard, but small #SMKDX update for you. CPUs are now armed with the new items too. 🙃

Super Mario Kart Fun Fact :
Item boxes are reset after 30 of them have been taken.
However there is a bug (?) in vanilla SMK which makes down-oriented itembox resets as right-oriented itembox and vice versa.
On the left is "initial" map, and on the right the map after items have been reset :

Happy birthday Super Mario Kart 💚

Bonjour. Non.

- A little crown is there to indicate who's leading the race (just like in Shine Thief mode)
- The initial timer (default 30sec for now) can be configured in the settings between 1 and 59sec
- there might be an alternate ruleset based on HP in the future.

- The first player finishing a lap will trigger the timer of the other player making it decrease
- Upon finishing the lap, the other player will have their timer stopped.
- And again and again until one of the timer reaches 0
- Or one of the player has lapped the other (and finish a lap)

Following last week's "Endurance" Mode, here is a 2 Players version of it : "Survival" mode!

#SMKDX

So it encourages consistency over risky driving, because if you do a "great lap" you'll have to reproduce it the next lap in order to be able to survive.

The ruleset may not be final, but that's the current one :)

Hope you'll enjoy it!

Counter in the bottom left of the player's screen is the number of lap achieved, if you reach 99, the counter resets to 0 and you hear the "1up" sound, so basically if you're really consistent, endurance mode can be infinite!

- Initial timer is 30sec
- If you finish the lap before it reaches 0, the timer is then updated with the value of your last lap + "a margin" (margin that you can configure in the settings menu between 0"01 & 0"99, default value being now at 0"50)
- If the timer reaches 0"00, the race is over.

In some #SMKDX news, here is a new mode available : "Endurance" mode!

Bring it on around with the Boomerang item, new to #SMKDX! Though there is one "catch"... :)

'Rang around a corner or fire right at your enemy! Don't worry if you miss, it comes right back to you! Hit 'em on the comeback!

With some skill, you can even catch the 'rang again for a second throw!

A Yellow Shell

There's no such thing as a gold shell in SMKDX though. 😉

I wasn't happy with the explosion effect for the Bob-omb, and as @mrl314.bsky.social mentionned here - bsky.app/profile/mrl3... -
we always wanted to have this "BOMB" text for the effect in reference to SMB2, so I took some time and made some update to the effect💥.

It's spin-to-win mayhem, spin Spin SPIN!!!

Some podium ceremony animation update for #SMKDX

MrL doing wonders again for #SMKDX
Tremendous work 👍🤩

It's cold out, let's heat things up a bit with the FIRE FLOWER!

Launch a barrage of 2 bouncy fireballs to snuff out the competition! These bounce over walls so don't bother trying to hide!

Pesky ice blocks in the way? MELT 'EM!

Oh but be careful, fire and water don't mix well.

throwback to when dorrie's thicc fuckin ass broke my code because it was too big

#SMKDX

(2021/12/25) Progress on my Gate Battle mode had been going smoothly, and I reworked the ruleset a bit.

Now, the scoring was more like Micro Machines, where you need a certain number of points more to win! Sudden death mode would occur if the timer hit 0 and both players were tied.

screenshot of a modified kart selection screen expanded to fit 16 racers. The bottom half is empty, missing the racers

(2021/12/22) This screenshot alone summed up perfectly that we were serious about this hack, and meant business. Along with expanding the track selection, obstacles, etc. Why not hop in and expand the character roster too? Double the size and get a full 16 characters in!

Question was: who?
