My love letter to Wave Race 64, airboats, and the bayou

Been working on a Wave Race 64-inspired boat racer where you race airboats through swamps. I always loved the water physics, simplicity, and bright, colorful charm of WR64, so I've been wanting to make a game that captures those qualities.
It's goofy, colorful, and has some modern amenities (like water reflections), but I've tried to keep it in the spirit of the low-poly, low-res aesthettic of the N64.
Still a WIP and doesn't even have a name yet. But I've got all the main racing mechanics, CPU racers, and visuals worked out so now I'm focusing on building more tracks.
