Ok I do hope this is real but having played your mario kart mods i dont expect much. It is good how have managed to do these mods but they feel like they are missing that "something" maybe that something comes from the special nintendo touch. Anyway if it helps i know that a split screen 2 player was originally thought of for SMG2 now whether any code made its way into the final item is anybodys guess. Keep modding its good for others
Certainly with this mod, we're not going to be altering any of the levels. We're trying to imagine what Nintendo would've done if they had implemented a real multiplayer; we are definitely considering things like 'What would happen if one player spun the other, or jumped on their head, etc.', character interaction, powerup interaction... all that stuff. Trying to somewhat get that special Nintendo charm, or at least keep SMG2's original charm but extend it to multiplayer. Mario Kart wasn't really like that, we were aiming to make new challenges rather than preserving charm... but this one is different, as we're really interested in creating a truly fun multiplayer mode here.
Either way, we'll keep news posted and the like, and we'll keep up our modding, cause it's always great fun to do and very rewarding when you see others using/enjoying your work. And I promise, we won't disappoint!
