after two years with neither the motivation not the time to code something interesting I got appetite to create something a few months ago. After some long evenings and a lot of free time spent (OK, it was winter time - better than watching TV
![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)

It is a simple racing game where up to 4 marbles race against each other. At the moment you can do a time trial against the clock and a ghost (previously played laps) and the up to 4 player network mode is (more or less) ready.
What I still want to add is the possibility to share ghost files over the internet and to download new ghosts to the client, but I haven't even started that part. I also want to create a standalone server.
The tracks in the package are most certainly not the final tracks although some of them will make it into the final version I guess.
I also have a video online although it's an old version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7s3OUbXc5Ec
Finally here are some screenshots:

I hope you have fun with the early version and can provide some feedback.
And I think I will most probably provide you with some new code snippets, but at the moment the whole source code lacks documentation and I'll also have to make nice packages before I publish those snippets.
