Is "Wacky Wheels" the Mario Kart of MSDOS? Yes, and it's awesome! (Bronze Cup & Wacky Duck Shoot)
"Wacky Wheels" is an awesome kart racer from 1994.
It's a charming 3D racer done in a SNES-Mode-7 Style.
It has split-screen, so you can play with a friend right there on the same keyboard! You can also race against the NPCs.
I show off the classic tournament modes in this video, but I also show off Wacky Wheels's take on a battle mode, where you chase duck-racers down and shoot 'em!
If you've never played this one, it's a lot of fun. It does suffer from some low framerates, but if you play the maps at 6HP first you can learn the maps and then advance to 12HP and deal with the fact that you won't see the turns with as mush lead time.
The one I played here was the Steam version (on sale right now for 84 cents), but you can also get it on GOG (currently on sale for $2.99)

Duke Nukem still ain't scared of no Quake... even if it just turned 30
Obviously Quake was a massive game, and some of the developers for it had some cross-over with Apogee. The rivalry between FPS games of the era pushed devs to be more creative to try to break new ground.
So kudos to Quake for being an innovative and fierce rival in the First Person Shooter genre... even if Duke pokes fun now and then ;)
