ROBLOX-Kart was an upcoming 3D racing game created by Liam McDougall. Being fan-made, this game is neither licensed nor endorsed by ROBLOX.

Features
The developers have claimed that the final version of the game will include six playable drivers; Homestar Runner and useres. In addition, there will be drivable tracks. The game will also feature AI-driven ponies and item boxes containing unique power-ups.

The development team mentioned the possibility of adding more drivers, tracks, and possibly a multiplayer mode; however, this is currently at the bottom of their list of things to develop. The team have also stated that any future tracks and characters appearing in the game will be from the show. In terms of playable characters, the team plan to only include characters who are central to at least one episode in the show and have speaking lines (meaning background ponies such as Lyra and Octavia will not be drivable ponies; however, they will be added in somewhere on the tracks).

Development
ROBLOX-Kart currently uses the Halfbrick, Valve and ROBLOX libraries. Due to the type of graphics engine the developers are using, ROBLOX-Kart will only be able to run on consles and Stream. The team has released early footage of showing the PreAlpha racetrack displaying several basic game mechanics such as physics on certain objects and drifting. At this time, Twilight Sparkle was currently the only user available; the other characters and karts are still a work in progress.

The first Teaser trailer, released on February 13, 2013, shows the movie in development, Whitetail Woods, as well as background ponies which will act mostly as the audience following the racers as they drive by. The video also shows several tweaks done to worlds, such as animated flags, and new sound effects added into the game, such as ambiance for worlds and kart sounds for Homestar's kart.
