This page will be updated to include new addons if and when they will be published.↩ Reply There is this game called SuperTuxKart that I didn't develop. But which is among the best Free Software games out there. And they have a way to make and publish addons. This is a list of addons that I made for SuperTuxKart.
↩ Reply The list will go from new to old.

Inspired by the Anderson Japanese Gardens in Rockford Illinois ( which was suggested by the user named @RowdyJoe ) I made a Japanese Garden with roughly the layout of the real place.

Long time ago one of the only games that worked on GNU / Linux was Trackmania. Since then GNU / Linux started supporting way more games. And I stopped playing proprietary games. But there was nothing wrong with channeling the nostalgia and trying to make an insane track for SuperTuxKart.

I was bored out of my mind. And just making a normal track again made no sense to me. So I made a track where you go around the whole planet and beyond.

I used to work on a Warehouse. And while I was there I always imagined to race the whole place through. So I made a warehouse track. It's inaccurate in a lot of ways. But it's fun. And that's the most important part.

There is this very popular track in SuperTuxKart called "Snow Peak" that a lot of people like to play, but that looks like complete ass. So I decided to update it's graphics.

There is this very popular track in SuperTuxKart called "Oliver Up-Class" that a lot of people like to play, but that looks like complete ass. So I decided to update it's graphics. Though I ended up making a complete redesign of the classroom. Some people find my version way too colorful.

I was pissed that nobody watched my film Moria's Race. And so to calm myself down I've put 3 of my films into a cinema. And made a racing track through it.

The game has a GNU mascot which is just a gnu flying on a carpet. But I think they were going for the famous Richard Stallman look with it. Where he used to put a funny shirt and pretend to be a wizard. I was inspired by it. To be honest since then RMS got cancer. And he doesn't look like a wizard anymore. Hope he will get better.

I was walking outside of my house the other day and decided to procrastinate away from the Moria's Race project and instead recreate the area and make a SuperTuxKart track from it.

For the promotion of the movie Moria's Race I made several addons for SuperTuxKart. And I think that they were somewhat successful. They consist of various characters and areas from the film, converted to the format of the game. Some changes also include resizing normal sized cars from the film, into caricatured versions that look consistent with the rest of the game.

It is not often that a horror films appears to tickle the right nerves from the high-brow crowd of cinema critics. With 93% Rotten Tomatoes score though, it is safe to assume that Zach Cregger's Weapons from 2025 is one of those rare movies.
Steven Spielberg directed some rather intense movies throughout his career. He made Duel in 1971 about a maniac truck driver. He made a blog-buster sensation Jaws in 1974. And he made films like Schindler's List and War of the Worlds that could be considered horror films. But he never did a true, scary horror film. My mother used to say that "Steven Spielberg is too sentimental to make truly scary movies". But that statement isn't true about his daughter Destry. 2025 film by Destry Allyn SpielbergPlease Don't Feed the Children shows that she is capable to rival fucking Eli Roth if she wants to.
Shazam! Fury of the Gods is another David F. Sandberg film that has an issue with it's opening. I just reviewed his film Until Dawn and if you can survive the not so good dialogue of the first couple of scenes, you are in for a very good movie. This film has a similar issue.
The passing of Gene Hackman made me interested in the actor again, and then I saw that he made a movie with Tony Scott, from Jerry Bruckheimer about surveillance. Recent fascination of mine with Michael Bay and stuff related to him, like the fact that a lot of the style of Bay came almost directly from Tony Scott. And the fact that Bay worked with Bruckheimer in the time this movie was released. And the fact that the star of Bad BoysWill Smith is the star of Enemy of the State. All of that made it inevitable that I should check the movie out.
I have not seen the original 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger film yet. But I did appreciate the small cameo of Schwarzenegger on the new dollars used for money in the world of the 2025 Edgar Wright's political action-horror-comedy The Running Man.
