KarBOOM is a fast-paced multiplayer-focused car combat game. Knock other players out the ring, or switch on some mutators to blow up the competition by their weak spots, play tag, or some good old-fashioned rock-paper-scissors on wheels. Download and play the game for free, and then let me know what you think. This game is in an open alpha state -- "alpha", in that it is not feature-complete; "open" in that anyone who wants to play any alpha version can, for free.

Hi! Sorry for the late reply!

There have been a lot of requests for a racing game mode. I have higher priorities at this stage, but I will experiment with such a mode.

Hmmm...I downloaded the 0.3.7 version and started to play it, but after the splash screen, I got an error that says (DirectX Error:RTARGET)

What are your system specs? This seems to be happening on older hardware. I'm working on ways to avoid such problems for the next update.

They might be able to support the game if Intel has fixed the problems with their drivers, which would mean you'd need to download and install an update of their drivers.

Maybe newer Intel graphics solutions don't have the issue, though. I've heard good things about them.

This problem is common with Intel graphics, but since they work with older KarBOOM versions I might be able to make a new version that also works by avoiding whatever Intel graphics do wrong.

Thanks for your reply. Looks like I have to update my driver. I don't remember when was the last time I update my computer.

There's this thing called "the internet" that unites the world in one big community. What's with staggered release dates? #nooceans Oct 10 2012, 7:56am
@jwaaaap OS X 10.7 (Don't have my Windows PC handy) -- "Super Crate Box is not available on your current platform." Aug 29 2012, 9:28pm
@PeterMolydeux What? No! PC should be a better platform for local multiplayer / party games. More PC gamers should have gamepads. Aug 28 2012, 10:31pm
@onepixelgames Actually yeah, prototyping's pretty special :) But I wouldn't put shaders and prototyping in the same category. May 20 2012, 12:04am
@PeterMolydeux A prepared gamer has at least one gamepad plugged into their PC at all times for when the genre/multiplayer calls for it. May 16 2012, 2:10pm
@ADAMATOMIC They are the most fun part of game dev, hands-down. May 3 2012, 12:32pm
Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery EP (yes, that's how you spell it). I had no hand in its creation, but wish I did. T.co Apr 17 2012, 11:15pm
