Story

In a far off land on Yoshi's Island lies a peaceful resort where Yoshis can relax and play in a tropical-like area. They nicknamed the place Yoshi Lagoon. However, the place grew more and more old to the point where the place did not seem to have any sort of appeal. Yoshis later abandoned this Yoshi-shaped lagoon and visited other places of the island like Yoshi Falls. The place is now used as a racetrack for everyone to watch.

Original beta

The original beta, having been called Yoshi Circuit, looked nothing like the current version. It looked like a flat track laying in the sky with a starry sky above it. The track was incompletable in 5 minutes and consisted of bike-only turns and blocky corners. No objects other than item boxes lied on the tracks, except for the cars that drove underneath it, as the track was originally made off of Moonview Highway. Respawn points would point you in the wrong direction, and item routes hardly worked. CPUs would also constantly drive off of a cliff.

New beta

The track was remade into Mario Kart Wii. It was now smaller and had more curvy turns. The track was also made off of Mushroom Gorge, allowing it to have trampoline mushrooms and Goombas (not used). Little shortcuts were added. However, at this time, the track was really bright with textures.

Release Candidate 1

At this time, the track was now called Yoshi Lagoon. The track still had the same design as the "New Beta" but had more proper texturing to it. It also had more 3-D depth, allowing it to not just look like a floating platform in the sky. Item routes were also fixed and trees were also added for further detail. Cata-quacks were also added.

Release Candidate 2

After several criticizing comments, Yoshi Lagoon received further development. With a KMP expansion, more trees and bouncy mushrooms were added. A new, but slower, path was added and an actual cannon was added instead of having just a slanted wall. Little arrow signs were added as well a wooden bridge. The bouncy mushrooms finally received a nicer looking texture and the speed boosts also received a new texture. However, the cata-quacks were sadly removed due to causing glitches. Furthermore, the lap count system now works better and some of the bouncy mushrooms received slightly new height values.

Known Glitches

• If one drifts too close to the edge of the track, they'll touch one of the walls of the track and get snagged by them. This is a known glitch, but it can be easily avoided if one doesn't drift too tightly.

• Sometimes one cannot make it to the other side of the cannon because their vehicle is too slow. However, if one can get a star or a bullet bill and use it right before they enter the cannon, they can reach the other side successfully.

• In VS mode, sometimes CPU players cannot complete a lap.

• In 50cc, you can't make it to the other side of the cannon.

Trivia

• As previously stated, the track was originally entitled as Yoshi Circuit.

• Another obvious note is that the entire track is shaped like Yoshi jumping into the air.

• This custom track was the first custom track to use a cata-quack as an object.
