Extreme Tux Racer

I'd like to share with you a cool game called Extreme Tux Racer. I discovered it a long time ago when I first discovered Ubuntu (8.04) and I was messing with the software center.

Basically, in this game there's a penguin, tux. You slide down various maps, avoid obstacles such as trees, don't get stuck on the rocky ground, and collect the herring (fish) to raise your score.

The faster you finish and the more herring you collect, the better your score is. I honestly don't give a rat's *** about herring, I just love going really fast, it's tons of fun. However you may get stuck at some levels and it's really frustrating because you have to abort the race and try again.

Download it here. extremetuxracer.com/

Control the penguin with the arrow keys.

If you have Mac OS X the link on that site won't work, use this link instead. www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/ga....metuxracer.html
No patch needed, just drag in applications folder.

Have fun!

I played that before...for five seconds.

So you don't like it? Okay...

I used to love this game!

Too intense for him, no doubt.

Have you ever played SuperTuxKart? It's really cartoony, but extremely fun.

Yeah, it was so intense that after about five seconds my head exploded I would play it again, but do you know how hard it is to clean up exploded head?
