After missing the deadline to get into the last release, we finally made it this time! The universe repository for Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) includes Extreme Tux Racer. If you're running the beta version of Hardy open a terminal and type sudo apt-get install extremetuxracer to install the game. We hope eventually to become a replacement for the simultaneously available planetpenguin-racer packages.

We now have a Launchpad project, which makes it much easier to report bugs. Go to launchpad.net/etracer to report a bug.

This new version of Extreme Tux Racer includes better graphics, a cleaner slicker ui, all new courses and more! Source and binary download links are available here.

As many of you know, the Tux Racer course upload site: tuxracer.fubaby.com stopped accepting new courses recently. However a new course submission forum has been set up. Check out the courses section in the menu at the top of the site.

Extreme Tux Racer is an open source racing game featuring Tux the Linux Penguin. ETRacer continues in the tracks of Tux Racer and its forks.
And now, we present to you with the initial release of Extreme Tux Racer, brought to you by a new team of developers. While there is the addition of a new campaign and a few bug fixes here and there, our main goal with this release is to break in our new name and team. Expect to see ETRacer in the repositories for various distros soon.
Over the next day we will be rolling out several Linux builds, as well as a Windows build. Please see our download page. Once you've downloaded and played the game, feel free to come on over to the forums and tell us your opinions, suggest a feature, report a bug. Everyone's welcome.

Our release date for version 0.35 has been set for September 22nd. This release is mainly to break in the new name, and the new team, and to get into the repositories for various distros. We will be working hard over the next few months to truly improve while continuing the Tux Racer legacy.
