Only recently I've been playing F-Zero X again because I'm developing custom tracks again, and coming to this hack was absolutely mind-blowing. Sure, there are plenty of videos out there showing it off and giving praise and then there's the fact I haven't played Climax fully, but being able to play it for myself allowed me to experience how much love and effort you put into this. I've played through your other series (PXB 1-3, Expansion, FZX 10th Anniversary, and so on) and this felt like an original game despite using assets from Climax.
Because of this, now I'm currently working on creating a 24-trackset of courses from GP Legend. It won't have the same graphical flair but your Climax track recreations are inspiration for how the 2D tracks could be turned 3D.
