Overview

Golden Mountain Road is ISwearChris's second custom track. It was created for the 43rd edition of the Custom Track Jam competition series, where it placed ninth. The design was intended to feel big and adventurous, as well as to incorporate a simple layout that feels rewarding to drive. The author was unsatisfied with the original version of the track, leading to its recreation months after the Jam it originated in.

Slot Information

It is recommended to put this track on the GCN DK Mountain slot because of the boulder SFX and, as of RC2, road GFX. If used in a distribution that supports custom music slots, it is recommended to use the Mario Circuit slot. For the snowy version, it is recommended to put this track on the DK Summit slot for the snow effect.
