Wacky Wheels

Wacky Wheels is an arcade racing game released by Apogee in 1994. It strongly puts the emphasis on fun instead of realism, both in looks and gameplay. You can choose between one of eight possible animals as a pilot to race with. While racing, players can collect hedgehogs, bombs and other objects that can be used to shoot or distract opponents. The game features both single and multiplayer play, with splitscreen or modem. In multiplayer mode, 2 human players can either race against each-other, or battle in special arenas where the sole purpose is to hit the opponent a certain number of times with hedgehogs. This last gaming mode, called "Wacky shoot-out" is similar to the classic deathmatch mode from shooting games.

Wacky Wheels was not the first game to feature this type of gameplay, now known as go-kart racing. Other, more well-known go-kart racing games include Skunny Kart and Mario Kart.

It was also one of the first game to have a Dopefish cameo.
