Mario Kart Source aims to bring the fun and excitement of the Mario Kart series to the PC though the powerful Source engine used in Half Life 2. We hope to create the ultimate version of Mario Kart (MK) by combining all of the best aspects into one game. We're not simply recreating one version of MK, but using the best parts of each. We want to have all the traditional weapons, characters, and maps but also bring out new weapons that make game-play interesting. We're redesigning the maps so that they keep their appeal, but truly utilize the power of the source engine. We plan to have at least 16 different characters, all the ones you know and love as well as some others from the Super Mario World. We want this mod to reflect what you guys want in a Mario Kart game. Have some cool weapon ideas? What special characters do you want? What about maps? We want to know! And now the question on everybody's mind, a beta release. “When is it?” “Is it a closed beta?”...

ello karters!

Mario Kart Source is always is desperate need of coders! We are actively looking for experienced C++ programmers, especially with Source Engine experience. You know C++ but never coded under this game engine? You can always try to help us! The code is our main problem, and no code progress means no playable game, so please spread the word about us!

If you think you can help for code, but also for texturing and modeling, please contact us here: jobs[at]mariokartsource.com . Thanks!

No code progress, but a new map! Here is Waluigi Arena, an exclusive Battle map for Mario Kart Source! This map, inspired from MKDS' Wario Stadium, will contain some bumps and ramps made of dirt. On the middle of the map will be a mud lake which will slow down players. An event can be added here, like a piranha plant popping out of the mud and chewing players randomly. 4 ramps are disposed around the mud lake so players can jump above and try to get the item box which will be above the mud.

Hope we will have some talented people for helping us soon!
Thanks for your fidelity and support.
