Project Description: The idea of this project to recreate a simplistic version in Python of one of my favorite childhood games, Mario Kart. This game will work quite similarly to the actual game, in terms of power ups and characters. The main objective of this game is to race against other characters (AI) and to beat them in the race. 


How to Run the Project: Simply run the termProject.py file in the editor. There were minor modifications made to the cmu_112_graphics file, so download and import this new version of  cmu_112_graphics.
