Exalt Reveals Kart Shooter Hybrid 'Silas'
by Chris Faylor, Apr 28, 2009 2:20pm PDTIndependent developer Exalt Studios today announced its first game, Silas, a PC racing game that looks to combine the antics of Mario Kart with shooter-style weapons.
Under development for five years by sole Exalt member William Sworin, Silas is meant to "revolutionize the kart genre which hasn't changed much within the last decade."
Each of the game's 18 weapons has two firing modes, with the various single and multiplayer game types including Deathmatch, CTF, Survival, Battle, Capture the Pipes, and Grand Prix. Online matches will support up to 12 players.
Silas is due in August, with Sworin promising that the game will support "a wide range of systems. No word yet on how the game will be distributed or how much it will cost.

what? I was just thinking this is to Mario Kart what Giana Sisters was to Mario Bros in the 80s...
I liked Giana Sisters a lot, so maybe this is a good thing! as long as Nintendo doesn't sue those guys (I don't see how they could, but this game looks so much like mk it could be a mod...)
