For April 1st this year, I decided to TAS Donkey Kong Racing, a brand new romhack by GloriousLiar. Expand Description for more info.

What is Donkey Kong Racing?
Donkey Kong Racing is a romhack that introduces 6 new car-based solo-races to DK64. These races function similarly to the Castle Car Race in Base DK64. The catch? You need to collect all coins and beat the course without losing any coins in order to get the prize.

How is 100% defined?
Completing all totals on the credits screen after completing the final course. This run gets all 6 Banana Coins from perfect race completion, and 4 Golden Bananas from finding and completing the 4 secret challenges.

Why TAS this romhack?
GloriousLiar put a ton of effort into making a couple different romhacks over the past year or so, and I thought it would be really cool to show off his creation, and also give thanks to his work by TASing a romhack that he developed.

What is this texture spiking?
Good ol' bone displacement. This is an issue that has plagued emulated DK64 forever, but normally isn't seen nowadays thanks to a fix that Isotarge found. That fix, however, is only implemented if the game detected is Base DK64. Since this is a romhack, that fix isn't applied here.

Did I just hear Lanky?
That's the car horn, don't worry about it.

Why do you play as DK instead of any of the other Kongs?
I seriously considered tagging Diddy as a reference to Diddy Kong Racing, but the romhack is literally called Donkey Kong Racing, so I figured staying as DK would make more sense. That aside, the only real differences are in character size. Larger characters like Chunky have trouble getting into some spaces. Even DK was a bit of a struggle in one spot, but it doesn't stop DK from being able to solo everything, so I just use DK because tagging would be slower.
