Gameplay Systems

Konami Krazy Racers plays similarly to other kart racing games. Each race begins at the starting line, where eight racers are lined up in certain positions. Each of the seven computers are placed in the closest seven positions to the starting line, but the player character always starts a circuit in eighth place. This placement may change in the next race of the circuit depending on how well the racers do.

If the player places first, he or she will be in the first position, as the placement in the following races is based on how the racers did in the previous race. The race is seen from behind the player, and uses Mode 7 -style scaling to simulate the three dimensions. A timer will count down to indicate the beginning of the race, and the player must hold down a button to accelerate at the beginning. The player can pick up coins off of the track which may be spent on items in a shop, and depending on the character the player controls, he or she may try to cause another player to spin-out.

The player may use other buttons to do such actions as jump and brake, which aides in maneuverability. Placed throughout the races are red and blue bells. The red bells contain any variety of items, while the blue bell contains a speed-boosting item. Characters Konami Krazy Racers features a total of 12 characters from various Konami series.

Each character features unique statistics, including weight, speed, and acceleration.
