Overview

Penguin Canyon first started as a very different idea that the creator came up with on a school trip. Ben and his friend were designing an outline for a custom track. At first, he wanted it to be called Wario's Labyrinth. It would have consisted of a huge map with many turns and dead ends. When Ben got back from the trip, he tried designing it on Microsoft Paint. However, Ben tried importing the PNG into the SZS Modifier, but the model was too complex. This required him to make many changes of the model. The edited PNG design became the course as it is today. At that point, Ben thought Wario's Gold Mine was not a good choice for it, and thought using penguins would be more interesting than mine carts, so he transferred all his ideas from Wario's Gold Mine to N64 Sherbert Land. At that time, he did not know how to import different models into different courses via hex edit, so that is why this course was switched from Wario's Gold Mine to N64 Sherbert Land. Due to school, he spent four weekends complete the course for an Alpha test. Many more changes were necessary for improvement. On a Sunday Night, Ben finished fixing more glitches and released a Beta to two different people. Of course, there were still many glitches he had to fix. After many changes, he released Penguin Canyon RC1, his second custom course. It was eventually accepted into the CTGP at RC4.

Patch to N64 Sherbet Land and replace Daisy Circuit. The current version of this course is RC6.

Version History

Version	Date of release	Information
Alpha	Unreleased	There were many versions of Alpha of this course, but summing up all the problems, the creator decided that he needed to fix penguin paths and placements, item box placement, and wall placement.
Beta	Unreleased	Only released to two people. One of whom was MrBean35000vr, who thought the course was pretty cool. The penguin placements were fixed, and some item boxes were edited, like the Star/Mushroom only box.
RC1	2010-04-03	The first release of this course. The walls were slightly improved, and the ramp was fixed as well. In RC1, all penguins shrank over 50% at the request of MrBean35000vr.
RC2	Unknown	Fixes first Bullet Bill glitch.
RC2.5	Unknown	Another slight Bullet Bill fix.
RC3	Unknown	Fixed another item route glitch. Bullet Bill was having trouble on deciding which way to go, so after many attempts and lucky placements in the KMP, the glitch was successfully fixed.
RC4	≤ 2010-05-08	Smoothed out the sides of the road and had a minor texture change to the start line.
RC5	Unknown	A few texture changes, fixed walls, and tweaks to an enemy route in the KMP.
RC6	≤ 2013-12-05	Stupid textures gone and also fixed some corners.
