Ok!

There hasn't been an update on Epic Battle - Impala Kart Courses for a while. Meanwhile there has been a lot of progress however.

- Sadly, Sasori has left us as a team member, therefore all sprite work has to be done by Stifu now. Sasori will still be a driver in the game however with a new design.

- Right now there are already 4 new drivers implemented in the game which can be seen in the screenshots shown below. Added currently are:

*Stifu
*Impala
*Camy
*Don

I think I don't have to explain who is who.

- Currently, the last details are worked out for every new course to get the difficulty exactly right.

- Finally, the definitive name of this Mario Kart hack will be Epic Racers - Impala Kart Courses.

Now, have a look at the latest screenshots showing the 4 new drivers and some tracks already created. Also to note are the new items and... someone can guess who the guy on the moon is?

Stifu has completely redrawn the titlescreen to match with the new titlescreen, also adding a cool scroll effect.

Keep in mind that not all things are show yet, to keep some suspence, but we're well underway. Have a look at my website to get the latest info anytime. http://www.okimpala.com Enjoy!

Yep, catgirl. She's actually my girlfriend, and she loves cats, so I thought I'd draw her as a catgirl.

Heh.

On a side note, Impala has been rushing when he made this topic, so he made a couple of mistakes... When he said "can guess who the guy on the cloud is?", he actually meant "moon", not cloud.

hi impala!

nice to see some progress on this one.

the sprites really look quite professional. anyway: what about the track-themes? will they remain as-is or will they get a fresh new look in the final as well?

Each track will have a different theme, and all track elements will be redrawn (would be better if we could change musics, which isn't granted...)... We'll concentrate on that once I'm done with the driver sprites. Driver sprites are easily the biggest part of the gfx work...

With all this hard work,
i belive that this game should be sold on impala's
site instead of a regualar free SMK hack.
I mean i would defienatly pay 20 euros
min for this because you dont always get
something like this everyday,
its rare and the makers need to be rewarded
to keep them motivated to make stunning games like this!
Keep it up Stifu and Impala!
Who else agrees with me?

Even though we're putting a lot of effort into this, it's still a ROM hack... That is to say a modification of a commercial (copyrighted) game. We're not going to sell something if the game isn't 100% our work.
The fun we're having while making this hack and the enjoyment people will have playing it is our reward.

You never know when to quit, do you...

First, there is no way Impy would agree, I know that. Second, even if he agreed for some reason, since this is a team project and that I disagreed, the idea would still be rejected in the end.

But if you really want to send money, Impala got a Donation section on his site.

Awesome. Love the new kart designs. But what's all the crud on the track in Bowser's Castle? (And yeah, nice catgirl. )

Thanks... Yeah, we're giving everyone a different vehicle, something that's not the case in the original game.

Stuff that slows you down a lot... Also, stomping wall things come out of it. (We'll replace them by something else though, graphic-wise)

What or who is Craw ?
Dunno about him/her/it. Those other guys guessed it right before, it's Fu. We thought we'd feature him to replace Lakitu as a tribute to him, to thank him for his precious programs and help.

Ok!

A video might be a nice idea in the future...who knows?

As for the stuff in Bowser's Castle. Have a look at the old screenshots on my website we released earlier. In one of them you can see a lattice and the blocks jumping out of it...Though it doesn't show as nicely in the screen as in the game itself...
