About Pixel Kart 2
Pixel Kart 2 is the sequel to Pixel Kart, and this time the tracks are real 3D. They climb over hills, dip into valleys, lean through banked turns, launch you off ramps and cross over themselves on bridges, all drawn at a chunky low resolution with pixel-art karts, palm trees and crowds.
Six racers line up for every race: Rex, Bolt, Sunny and Moss from the start, with Viola and Duke waiting to be unlocked. Hold drift through a corner until the sparks turn blue, orange and then purple, and let go for a turbo. Item boxes hand out bananas, homing shells, oil, fake boxes, shields, boosts and a shock that shrinks everyone ahead, and the karts at the back get the better ones.
Four tracks make up the Grand Prix: Sunset Bay with its bridge over the bay, Frostpeak Pass with ice sheets and a crevasse jump, the elevated Neon Skyway over the city at night, and Redrock Canyon with a gorge to jump and a tunnel through the mesa. Race the cup in Rookie, Pro or Ace class, try a single race, or chase the clock in time trial with three boosts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Pixel Kart 2 a sequel to Pixel Kart?
Yes. Pixel Kart raced on flat tracks; Pixel Kart 2 moves the racing into real 3D with hills, banked turns, jumps, tunnels and bridges where the track crosses itself, and adds a Grand Prix, six racers and new items.
How do I get a turbo?
Hold the drift button while steering into a corner. The sparks behind your wheels change from blue to orange to purple the longer you hold the drift; release it to get a short, longer or long turbo.
How do I unlock the Ace class and the hidden racers?
Finish a Pro or Ace Grand Prix on the podium to open the Ace class. Win a Rookie cup to unlock Duke and win a Pro or Ace cup to unlock Viola. Tracks open for single races and time trials once you have raced them in a Grand Prix.
Can I play Pixel Kart 2 on my phone?
Yes. Turn the phone sideways: the stick on the left steers, the kart accelerates by itself, and DRIFT, ITEM and BRAKE buttons sit on the right. A keyboard and a gamepad work as well.
How is the score worked out?
Every race scores its place (100 points for a win down to 10 for sixth) plus 2 points for each second under the par time. A time trial scores 6 points per second under par. A Grand Prix adds a podium bonus, and the class multiplies everything: Rookie x0.6, Pro x1, Ace x1.5.
