Screenshot

History

Snow Peak, previously known as "SnowTux Peak" and "Geeko Peak", is one of the first SuperTuxKart tracks (originally created for TuxKart, so very old). Before being renamed and turned into a snow themed track surrounded by an ocean of ice, it was called "Geeko Peak" and used to be a dirt-covered volcano surrounded by an ocean of lava.

Gameplay

The track features several different turns. However, the numerous collision bugs can make the race unfair. Also the track is considered quite luck-dependent in online multiplayer. There probably is a shortcut that could skip a turn but for now it is not sure it can be saved time by doing it (a zipper is needed and you can't cut too much because of a checkline).

The part where a shortcut is possible

Graphics

Graphics are okay for most people, but not as high as most other tracks. However, players like this track because it's very light.

Speedruns

Speedrun WR is 1:22.321 by Wax. 0.9.3 WR is 1:24.019 by Alayan.

Future of the track

A new track by Sven Andreas Belting, Snow Weeks, will probably replace Snow Peak in 2.0.
