This is a port of Dr. Robotnik's Ring Racers for the Nintendo Switch. It is a kart racing video game that builds upon the successes of its predecessor Sonic Robo Blast 2 Kart (SRB2Kart).

Currently the game only runs well with one racer (no CPUs). It is advised to overclock the CPU to the maximum and consider turning down the graphics.

The game runs smoothly with only one racer (no CPUs), but adding more racers significantly impacts performance. To enhance your gaming experience, please overclocking the CPU to the maximum and considering a reduction in graphics settings.

-A special shout-out to heyjoeway and carstene1ns for their contributions to SRB2/kart. Their work was a valuable reference for this port, especially for the online component. Without heyjoeway’s workaround, it would have been a much tougher challenge.
