Super Indie Karts is a classic retro '90s style karting game with a collection of Indiegame themed race tracks in both the 16-bit Super style and the 64-bit low poly Ultra style. With Time Trials, Grand Prix, Splitscreen GP, Quick Race, and Battle Modes there's plenty of ways to tackle the tracks!

The game was KickStarted late in 2014 and is aimed for completion in 2018/19. You don't have to wait until completion though as you can join in now with Early Access and the Super Indie Karts BETA builds! The BETA currently boasts over 30 characters, with 32 Super tracks, and the 4 recently added Ultra tracks, to play Single Player or 2/3/4 Player Splitscreen in Grand Prix mode (and in Mirror Mode) and in Time Trials. Battle Mode is currently locked out of the game as it's undergoing a serious overhaul. More play modes, characters, and features will be added as the Early Access weeks drift on by.

With one foot firmly in the past, witness authentic '90s hardware limitations such as:

Super Style

• shockingly bad draw distance!
  
• fast, incredibly small, almost claustrophobic, tracks!
  
• trees and obstacles that pop up 5 yards in front of you!

Ultra Update

• increased draw distance and track area size!
  
• large open antigrav racetracks that corkscrew and loop-de-loop into the skies!
  
• more cranked up than a joypad with a double wedgie!

Retro Sensibilities

• World leading watermelon physics engine! (featuring Blast Processing!)
  
• 1992 style screen curvature and motion blur! (optional)
  
• Indie Game crossovers you know and love, and some you don't yet know you love!

More info on the final game:
Play as some super Indie Game characters, coming to battle it out in some super Indie Game themed tracks! It might get a little bumpy out there as there are plenty of weapons on the track to spin you out: Melon Cannons, Exploding Pangapples, Melted Gelatos, Heat Seeking Loconuts, Giant Halloween Pumpkings, and 3 different strength Chilli Boosts!

Indie Crossovers so far include: - Runbow - Freedom Planet - Teslagrad - Whispering Willows - Fist Of Awesome - Read Only Memories - Lobodestroyo - Canabalt - Duck Game - So Many Me - Toto Temple Deluxe - Aegis Defenders - Adventures Of Pip - Shutshimi - Gentlemen Ricochet - A.R.E.S. - Holobunnies - Clive'N'Wrench - Cross Code - PowerDrive2000 - Guacamelee! - and many more to come! With over 40 tracks to race on, in 3 speed classes, plus mirror mode, there'll also be plenty of achievements and unlocks to keep you drifting and burning pixel rubber 'till the pixelated billboard sun goes down!
