Kart racing in deep space: no walls, sky jumps, no-rail shortcuts and rival takeovers.
Goal: Start last and finish first over 3 laps on a track floating in deep space. You steer; the kart speeds up by itself. There are no walls: wheels over the edge flash EDGE! — steer back, or you fall into space and lose about two seconds. Take each JUMP flat out over the gap, and dare the no-rail SHORTCUT. Hold DRIFT through bends to charge a mini-turbo. Drift THROUGH a gem for a gold roll — that is where TAKEOVER lives: fire it and you drive the rival ahead for 5 seconds. FIRE as the lights go out for a ROCKET START. A race you never touch scores nothing.
Controls: ◄ ► / A D / stick steer · ↓ / S brake · Shift / DRIFT drift · K / FIRE fire · Space fires a held item, else drifts · P pause

A 3-lap race takes roughly one to two minutes, longer while you are learning the circuits. Every race ends: once the last rival takes the flag, you have 15 seconds to cross the line. It sits in the Rush corner of the arcade.
VECTAKART is a racing game in the VECTARCADE catalogue — vector-drawn, instant-play, and scored on a global leaderboard.
A gold-roll item: fire it and you drive the nearest rival ahead (or behind, if you lead) for 5 seconds while your own kart races on. Steer it off the edge or into oil to cost it places.
Be drifting when you drive through a gem. It also pays a boost and extra drift charge.
There are no walls: when your wheels go over the edge, EDGE! flashes and the kart skids on the lip, so steer back to save it. Stay out there and you fall into space, then you are set back on the road where you left it, about two seconds lost.
