This is one of the best racing games ever made. I wish it had more than 4 tracks.
Also penshark is my fursona

horrible terrible nightmare game but fun
The ugliest creatures you've ever seen in your life (and Jaw) come together in a battle of the minds, where body and soul clash on the frozen wasteland of combat...
Only one can survive the Antarctic tundra's icy grasp... Will the three park owners and their Shockingly Racist Friend send the Penpen's to oblivion? Or will the beasts survive, excelling past the expectations of their captors?
Find out for yourself, in... Pen Pen TriIcelon...

This shit's wack, and i mean that in a very specific flavor of wackk
PPT is a racing game unlike most others ive ever seen in that it's probably the only one to be a (somewhat) functional relay race where youre only playing as one racer for the base mode
which is like....okay.?
The level selection is kind nice! The aesthetical prowess of this shit is great it OOZES that hinging y2k future-esque stylized stuff with the load screens and how color placement is used for the inbetweens of this game. The music aint that bad either, unfortunately while this game is definitely a unique moment in the dreamcast's catalogue and has a certain degree of bathsalt cartoon charm
it also plays it V e r y safe. Like. there is virtually no skill here youre just kind of hitting the same button over and over again at the right press duration, over and over, maybe eat shit on a bumper and take a few seconds to recompose yourself??? but idk the more "Difficult" shit in this game just boils down to the AI tapping you a centimeter too much to the left and ruining the entire thing for you
exhale
okay yeah lets talk abt the designs bc there's a lot to unpack, and i promise u its an important aspect babe be patient
PPT has a nice little bit of customization and little fits you can give your racers, you get like a COUPLE to start off with but it's a nice bit of personalization that would otherwise be kind of Impossible in a non-kart or car related race setting
Races in general are segments of three things of running, swimming and belly sliding and i dont think picking whatever design scratches your brain more matters because it's a very shallow skill threshold and there isnt THAT much to shake each map up after youve played on one of them
not really any craaazy items or anything
just like
there
race
win
also the race officials are interesting.. most of them,, in particular i was compared to ms cream when i posted a pic of her so naturally i like her even more in retrospect in a bashful sorta way and I think that the one dude thats clearly a human with an animal mask on is creepy cool...
Unfortunately this is also a game from the late 90s early 00s in the certain humor way where there's a full blown racist caricature, im Not letting that shit slide and this would-be 3.5/5 is gettin a 2 for me, fuck yourself lol

i need ms cream viscerally too bad for the racism
The original hat-collecting game before Team Fortress 2.
It's a silly fun good arcade racer with a wild cast of characters, some wonderful Cel Shading, and a ridiculous Emcee announcer, it's got everything you could want for a fun bit of time. It's not a super in-depth game and it doesn't need to be. It's just a wacky great time!
