Super World Karts is a classic 16-bit mode7 style kart racer akin to the ones you've played back in the 90s on your SNES or MegaDrive, but adds some more contemporary game elements like:
  • 1080p HD resolution, 
  • achievements, 
  • drift-boosts, 
  • character unlocks, 
  • collection goals, 
  • analogue steering, 
  • and 3 star rankings for each race.

It will be available for OUYA / Windows / Mac / iOS / Android / Linux.

A multiplayer over internet would be nice. but if I read the site correct, there will only be a 2 player split screen.

Why not focus the effort by adding some of this content into SuperTuxKart instead?

They want it to be a commercial title and make money from it?

This game is offered for sale, while SuperTuxKart is open source.  This game is modeled after 16 bit games, especially SNES mode 7 games, while SuperTuxKart is a polygon based game more like the 32/64 bit kart games that came later.  Besides them both being kart games, there's not that much similarity between the two projects.
