Rainbow Road looks too intense for me!

[–]dxfan1010102 9 points10 points ago

That level was so is still hard.

[–]KaiserYoshi 2 points3 points ago

I really hope you're not talking about MK64.

[–]burritobus 19 points20 points ago

This is really impressive work!

[–]Poonish_2[S] 9 points10 points ago

Thanks everyone for the comments!

[–]option_i 2 points3 points ago

Seriously, good work, man! Or woman.

[–]Poonish_2[S] 4 points5 points ago

Man.

[–]stallionx2 14 points15 points ago

I really wish I had thought of this! They look great.

[–]k2cougar 10 points11 points ago

I feel stupid for never realizing go karts should be more than 30 second rides to stream in the cash

[–]Poonish_2[S] 9 points10 points ago

Practically, if you were playing with in-game money or with an objective, it doesn't make much sense to theme it heavily as the stats don't improve that much. For fun however, that's a different story.

Not sure if i should bust out roller coaster tycoon or mario kart

[–]Poonish_2[S] 18 points19 points ago

Why not both?

[–]option_i 3 points4 points ago

Porque no los dos!

And I thought my SNES Mario Kart themed tracks were cool. Those are really badass man!

[–]Poonish_2[S] 6 points7 points ago

You should post them. I would love to see them.

[–]cultivatingmass 3 points4 points ago

It's nothing special, really just tried to mimic the course layout more than anything.

Plus I can't figure out where to recover my screenshots from the GOG.com version

[–]cultivatingmass 4 points5 points ago

Prepare to be underwhelmed

I had others on old saves, but they were just as bland.

[–]Poonish_2[S] 3 points4 points ago

I really like the look actually. Good job. It's very clean and simple. You are definitely onto something there. If you feel it's bland, just add more scenery and/or landscaping. I might have gone overboard with the 2 castles, but you get the point. Now I'm curious to see the rest of your parks.

[–]cultivatingmass 2 points3 points ago

Heh, now that looks a lot better. May have to steal some of those.

This one is actually from my reddit contest park, so hopefully I'll finish it up by the end of the month.

[–]Birdd2 6 points7 points ago

That is awesome! I would love to see others in the future

[–]Poonish_2[S] 7 points8 points ago

I might do a second set. I got all reading week. :)

[–]Cabana 6 points7 points ago

Now I miss it too - thanks a lot!

[–]Poonish_2[S] 5 points6 points ago

You're welcome.

[–]Idras_Hairline 4 points5 points ago

Nice!

[–]GoogleTrypophobia2 5 points6 points ago

Use the shingles as grandstands! Wow I should have thought of that.

[–]Poonish_2[S] 5 points6 points ago

I can't claim credit for that. The idea came from this post. Here too.

[–]Khaosmexican2 3 points4 points ago

This deserves to be in the sidebar, its amazing :)

[–]chesterstone 4 points5 points ago

I like the signs saying Shoot! and Koopa Kart

[–]Bajuiceta5 4 points5 points ago

That's awesome!

[–]whoopassman 3 points4 points ago

This is quite incredible. Seriously awesome work.

[–]ResidentWeeaboo 2 points3 points ago

This person stole your post: http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/11xuo5/classic_mario_kart_tracks_recreated_in_roller/

[–]Poonish_2[S] 2 points3 points ago

Wow. I didn't even think it was a repost / steal worthy post? Lol. As long as more people see it, I don't really mind.

[–]J36miles 7 points8 points ago

Before this post, I never had the ambition to design my own tracks, but this is changing that. Thank you.

[–]Poonish_2[S] 6 points7 points ago

Thank you. I think designing tracks is the most fun and most frustrating part of the game. When it works, it feels great. When it doesn't, it really tests you.

[–]Toastermaface 2 points3 points ago

Damn man, thats a great idea! Nice work!

[–]Divinus 4 points5 points ago

This is such a genius idea.

[–]Failer10 1 point2 points ago

Could you post the scores? I'd like to know what the game rated them as.

[–]Poonish_2[S] 1 point2 points ago

[Excitement/ Intensity/ Nausea] Luigi Raceway - 5.97/ 2.57/ 0.44 Kalimari Desert - 5.47/ 2.53/ 0.41 Wario Stadium - 7.82/ 2.95/ 0.77 Bowser's Castle - 7.37/ 2.67/ 0.53
