This is very cool. A prototype of Mario Kart, entirely written with Javascript. And only 11kb! Naturally, as a prototype, it’s not very complete:
So far, it’s just racing. No weapons or any of that fancy stuff. At the moment, you can choose from 3 different drivers (Mario, Luigi and Princess Peach) and 2 different maps (Mushroom Cup Round 1 and 2). There is no lap count, no timer and no finish. You can just race around forever and try to beat the others (it’s not hard, especially if cut a few corners). The AI is rather crude, but seems to work ok for the time being.
This is also the same guy that made the Javascript version of Super Mario (similarly incomplete).
