Smash Karts
About Smash Karts
Smash Karts completely redefines what is possible in a browser-based 3D engine. I have played dozens of Mario Kart clones over the years, but this arena battler strips away the racing and focuses entirely on the combat. The physics engine is incredibly robust; taking a rocket to the side of your kart will physically spin you out of control based on the angle of impact. You drop into various arenas—from spooky graveyards to futuristic neon cities—and your only goal is to rack up as many kills as possible within a three-minute time limit. What elevates this above typical web games is the progression system. You earn XP for every match, allowing you to unlock quirky hats, new karts, and custom spawn animations. It is chaotic, it is fast, and it is easily one of the most polished multiplayer games available without a download.
How to Play
The controls are incredibly responsive. Use the WASD or Arrow Keys to steer your kart. Press the Spacebar to fire whichever weapon you currently have equipped. You gather weapons by driving through the holographic boxes scattered around the map. On mobile, on-screen joysticks appear automatically.
Game Features

Tips and Strategies
1. Keep moving constantly. Sitting still makes you an easy target for rocket launchers. 2. Save your invincibility stars for when you are trapped in a corner. 3. Drop mines right on top of weapon spawn points to catch greedy opponents off guard.

"Marcus says: The rocket launcher is definitely the most satisfying weapon, but do not sleep on the machine gun for long-range chipping. I usually average about 12 kills per match once I get warmed up."
