Here's some concept art when we were trying to figure out how Vendi drives her kart! Which is your favourite? 👣 👐 👅 🦷

Thanks to everyone that gave feedback in our first playtest, here's a sneak peek at what we're working on! One of the biggest pieces of feedback was accidental forward item throws. Good news, we're adding new animations and inputs to make item throws more precise!👍
