Title says it all, while supertuxkart can actually be pretty fun… i was curious to see if there were other ones aswell considering from what i remember, there was alot of games that are open source (also try xonotic, that game was fun as hell)
hope this post fits this community since i thought video games are just another type of software in some way (but if it isn’t, feel free to correct me if i am wrong as it would be greatly appreciated for the future)
But yeah feel free to drop any suggestions related to racing games
The major ones are already listed, so I mention only a few lesser known ones:
There’s a few, mostly closer to simulation than tux kart tho. A few that I’m fairly sure are under active development:
Speed Dreams. Can’t easily find the github for this one.
oh my god (stuntrally screenshot)
Regarding speed dreams, there is an announcement from a month ago: current status
TL;DR So they are currently switching from SVN to GIT and maybe use forgejo to host the project
Sonic Roboblast 2 Kart and its successor Dr. Robotnik’s Ring Racers are open source, and pretty fun! The exact degree to which they’re free-as-in-libre depends somewhat on Sega’s policy of turning a blind eye to fan games, so although GPL-2.0 permits commercial use I wouldn’t recommend testing it.
There is a lively modding scene (or there was for SRB2K last time I was playing it; I haven’t played RR yet). Ring Racers has single-player content if that’s what you’re looking for, I hear it’s quite challenging.
I suppose Rigs of Rods fits the bill, although I never played it.
The others I’m aware of (that still seem to get updates) are Stunt Rally and TORCS.
Media files are proprietary and it’s under the zlib license if that disqualifies anything, but for a somewhat decent experience, there is H-Craft Championship. Not the greatest of games considering it’s a game that originally released in 2007 as a commercial game available for Linux (don’t know about other platforms outside of the 2015 open source(?) release) by some seemingly random independent studio (Irrgheist), but fun enough I guess.
