Please update for ARM64 support: arch=('x86_64' 'aarch64')

pedrohqb, nah I'm not good with code, I just looked around and found jcowgill's work. All I did was make a PKGBUILD for it.

peregrinus, hope the game is working now for you, The Cachyos repo has a pkg that works for me right now. Here you go: https://us.cachyos.org/repo/x86_64/cachyos/extremetuxracer-0.8.4-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

Also my earlier comment got somehow removed by accident: Earlier PKGBUILD, special thanks to jcowgill for porting it to sfml 3.0

I couldn't get it to work with just that patch by Erwin_Ioseph; I also needed to patch configure.ac and remove the setting of C++14.

@Erwin_Iosef, why don't you create a extremetuxracer-git repo with your PKGBUILD? I think the upstream abandoned the project. Maybe it is up to you to keep it up!
