'Cracking Sands' isn't an Englishman complimenting a beach, or anything like that at all, actually.

Rather, it's the codename for Swedish studio Polarbit's new iOS kart racer.

Polarbit do love their racing games, having already entertained us with Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart and more serious sims such as Raging Thunder 2.

With a noticeably top-down perspective and the winning formula of cartoon characters, power-ups, and power slides,

Cracking Sands looks to be gearing up for action very nicely.

You'll get further details when we do, so sit tight.

In the meantime, feast your eyes on the screenies below. Enjoy.
