About the hack[]
Mario-kart-style racing game using OpenGL ES for rendering, meaning the CPU is very lightly-loaded. Features haptic feedback and control of Google TV from remote, mobile or tablet. If using a mobile or tablet with Google TV, powerup details are only shown on your device, and hence hidden from other players (although multiplayer isn't yet supported). Also features computer-controlled opponents and sound.
