RACER DEMO 0.1 - video game mashup from sputnic on Vimeo.



Real life Wipeout racing! Imagine the same thing, except a room filled with a small scale Mario Kart race track. That would be epic beyond comprehension.

That is pretty kickass!

Warning though, the video is loud.

I think it would be a little easier to control if the car didn't zip along so quickly. The track would need to be scaled down a little more though.

Paulguy's Post configuration
Or they could just not floor it the whole time, I imagine. :p Like any simulation racing game, really. You aren't going to get the crazy fast, lenient arcade style controls, that automatically guide you along the track so you can't fall off as easily

[post]Now that is pretty awesome, I have to wonder if they can make another track that has scenery.

Good luck with that whole hover car thing, haha.

Seriously though, you could easily make a Mario Kart racing version of this. Either use model train type materials or make it more cartoonish and do papercraft/printed designs. Although the little RC versions I linked earlier would be too small, but you could make custom bodies for real RC cars.

Also, this whole arcade racing thingy is very awesome. Wonder if one could do it but for other game types? :<

Well, hovercraft exist. They just don't work like in the movies. Physics are a bitch.
