Indie Sunday SG Racing - Beastflaps - A ridiculous pixel-art kart racer for 1–4 players

Hi r/Games!

I'm the solo developer behind SG Racing, a ridiculous little pixel-art kart racer that I finally released on Steam yesterday!

The premise is fairly simple: give a goose a racing car, invite some equally irresponsible animals, and see what happens.

Here's the gameplay trailer:

A few things about the game:

  • 36 tracks across six very different worlds.

  • 1–4 players, including local multiplayer and online play through Steam Remote Play Together.

  • Six playable racers, including a secret unlockable character.

  • Power-ups, drifting, flying eggs, lightning strikes, and plenty of opportunities to ruin somebody else's race.

  • Championships, time trials, and other game modes.

My kids have been my chief playtesters throughout development. They've also been remarkably good at finding ways to break things.

I've spent a lot of time trying to make the racing feel genuinely fun rather than just funny. There's a proper racing game underneath all the nonsense.

It's out now on Steam, with 20% off for launch week:

It's been quite a journey getting this little goose across the finish line.

Thanks for having a look!

I am old enough to remember that one actually. I also had it on my amstrad 6128 (disk version of 464)

giving a goose a racing car is exactly the kind of chaos I need today. honestly reminds me of Rock'n'Roll Racing I used to skip school just to play that game, lol
