Version 1.0 of the game includes several improved features such as 4 new playable levels and 3 different racers to choose from (Mario, Luigi, or Wario). For your reference, here's the complete changelog for the latest version of Mario Kart PSP:

• Improved graphics of the first 3 levels.
• 4 new levels playable.
• 3 different characters available.

This Lua-based homebrew game includes a Readme.txt file which you should make sure to read before installing it on your handheld. Anyway, we hope you enjoy this amusing Mario Kart-like game.
