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.

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.

There is a very strange thing about Nolan that other film-makers are struggling to do. For example Tony Scott's films Domino and Spy Game received criticisms for their complex structures. And Domino was both critical and commercial failure, probably because of its complex narrative. Yet somehow Christopher Nolan makes complex movies all the damn time, while also making a lot of money doing so. Even the so called "box office flop" Tenet did actually quite well. And also considering it was literally released during the height of the pandemic, where nobody was going out to see a movie in the theater, this movie is probably the biggest magic trick Nolan ever made. Remember Tenet is probably the most complex film from Nolan.
If you have seen Kick-Ass from 2010, you know that the biggest and most important element of the movie is... Wait... I just realized. It's the beginning of the review and it will be in all of the previews with links to it, and stuff, and I still want you to click onto the damn thing. So the most important element in the movie is not...
