Naughty Dog developed and released one of the greatest arcade racers for the PlayStation 1 known as Crash Team Racing (CTR) in 1999.
We spent years disassembling the original Naughty Dog assembly/machine code back to C and managed to make it playable online without harming the original gameplay. We also added some new exciting features along the way.
The result is the original CTR game we know and love but finally available to be played with up to 12 players with anyone in the world... online.
Completely reverse engineered back to machine code and rebuilt for online play

Setup & Race Your Way
Find Players. Select a Room. Select a Track. Choose a Character. Race.
Runs natively on Windows, Linux via Wine and MacOS via CrossOver.
12 Player Dedicated Servers
We host a variety of dedicated servers in multiple countries so you can always find a game with up to 12 other players.
You can also host locally over LAN. When a race is over, you are automatically reconnected to the same lobby, and the most amazing thing is it is all completely free to play¹
The game also incorporates a 'Quick Play' system which helps find you the best available room on the closest server to your region which helps minimise latency/lag.
