- Developer gandamuml details porting SNES Super Mario Kart into his ongoing Minecraft port in about 10 days.
- The work involved reverse-engineering the running SNES ROM, porting the game's AI, animating water tiles, plus separate RE work on some Mario Kart Wii content.
- He also implemented Forge-style modding features, dimension logic, and console commands to support more blocks — noting this plumbing took longer than making it look and play like Minecraft.
