What is Tux Racer?

This is a racing game starring Tux, the Linux penguin. The controls are simple: use the left and right arrow keys to steer, and the up arrow to "paddle". Holding down and releasing the "e" key makes Tux jump, and hold down the space bar (or the down arrow) to brake.

The game was obviously created for Linux originally, but was ported to Mac and Windows. A commercial version was published by the now defunct Sunspire Studios for Linux and Windows, but not for Mac.
