I played a bit of the game, it might be my losses talking, but to me it seemed like the CPU Karts aren't affected by the slow zones on the edge of the roads. A couple times on straight-aways, Karts driving on the slow zones on the sides are moving at the same pace I was while in the middle of the road, but if I were to drive on them my speed would drop greatly. Another problem I noticed was that when the Red Item orbs are blank, the CPU will sometimes be able to get items from them. And lastly, after I finish a race, when I am brought back to the character select screen, after you pick a character, you're sent to the race track but before the race can start, you're returned to the character select screen. If you pick a character now, it will work like it should, but this error occurred all 6 races I did.

So far it's an excellent start, I haven't played a Racing game for Ace before, so this is definitely something cool. Hopefully we can see some new maps added down the road, and some more items. Good luck with this.

I got this error as well - which means we are unable to play the game, as this error occurs on start up and crashes the game.

I'm not sure why I got this as I most definitely have the RTP installed on my computer. You need to check into this.

I'm disappointed as I was really looking forward to trying this out tonight.

@Dread and mlogan

It has nothing to do with the RTP, it's the font. Go into the police folder and install the fonts there.

Anyways, I ALWAYS wanted to make a racing game using RPG maker, so this is a real blessing to me. Though getting items is a little funky, the basic mechanics work really well and I hope to see a good selection of stages... and maybe one day replace the mario kart voices, it doesn't bother me but if this game does reach completion, it will feel a lot more polished if you had your own custom voices.

Why not using a more common font?

Nah, that wouldn't be fun...

Okay, just add a readme with instructions.

How would I know that police folder contains your fonts? :p

Other users would just delete the project and that would really be unfair to you.

Let's see...

Wow! It actually works smoothly and nice.

It has some minor glitches but I don't care.
Not to mention that THIS can become a great game.

Why not making it an RPG about a racer or something?

Imagine that.

You are a racer, you travel around the world, your goal is to Beat all the tracks. ;)

Yeah I know, you have to finish this first to do such a step.

Nice effort. I will keep watching this one as it develops.

Just a question.

What are these dlls you use from?

Couple hours of work. Might use in my game as a secret find or something. Not sure. Fancy though no? :D
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
Do you Find Tilesetting or Looking for Tilesets/Plugins more fun? Personally I like making my tileset for my Game (Cretaceous Park TM) xD
How many parameters is 'too many'??
