About
Karting Core is a single-player kart racing game focused on skill-based driving, AI competition, and progression through a structured racing career.
A major focus during development has been creating a driving experience that feels responsive, rewarding, and enjoyable to master. Every aspect of the handling model has been designed to capture the excitement of kart racing while remaining accessible to new players.
Compete across 10+ tracks with day and night variations, progress through 5 career tournaments, unlock 3 kart tiers, customize your personal garage, and improve your skills through races, time trials, and drift challenges.
Build your kart racing career through a series of 5 tournaments.
Compete in championship events, earn progression, unlock new content, and gain access to faster kart tiers as you advance through increasingly challenging competitions. Success depends on consistency, racing technique, and vehicle control.
Drive 3 kart tiers, each offering unique performance levels and handling characteristics.
Begin with accessible entry-level karts and work your way toward faster machines that require greater precision and mastery.
Race across more than 10 tracks featuring both daytime and nighttime conditions.
Track environments include:
• Urban locations
• Industrial facilities
• Natural landscapes
• Indoor arenas
Each circuit presents unique layouts, corner combinations, and racing challenges.
Driving feel has been a primary focus throughout development.
The handling model is inspired by real-world kart racing while remaining accessible to new players. The goal is to capture the sense of speed, momentum, and precision that makes kart racing rewarding while providing responsive controls that encourage players to improve through practice.
Improve your driving skills through:
• Precise braking
• Smooth cornering
• Maintaining speed through turns
• Consistent lap performance
Clean and consistent driving leads to better race results and faster lap times.
Karting Core features a Driver Pulse System that reflects the driver's composure behind the wheel.
Smooth and controlled driving helps maintain a stable pulse, while mistakes, aggressive inputs, and inconsistent driving can increase stress levels and make the pulse less stable.
A stable pulse rewards disciplined driving and contributes to higher event scores, while an unstable pulse can reduce the number of points earned during races.
The system encourages precision, consistency, and clean driving rather than relying solely on speed.
Adjust the camera to match your preferred driving view.
Players can freely customize camera position, angle, distance, and field of view to create a driving perspective that feels comfortable and suits their play style.
Whether you prefer a closer view focused on precision or a wider perspective for better track awareness, the camera can be configured to fit your needs.
Progress through 5 tournaments and unlock new kart tiers.
Jump directly into races against AI opponents on available tracks.
Set personal best lap times and improve your performance on every circuit.
Earn points by maintaining controlled drifts and mastering vehicle balance.
