I thought I would post the beta demo on here for everyone to download and check out. This marks the release of the first ever beta for Silas!

Normally you have to pre-order the game to gain access to it. But I love these forums and want to extend a first-look into it for everyone here. All I ask in return is that you post about any bugs or requests you may have in the Official Silas Forums. This would be a major help to me as I want Silas to be extremely polished.

And if you enjoy the beta demo, you can pre-order the game here:

I hope to release it in May of 2011. The next 2 months will be focused on bug fixing and beta testing.

Finally, here is the download link:

Thanks to everyone on this forum for all their help through the years, I couldn't have gotten this far without you!

767 MB?! That's almost too big for a CD! And incidentally it's more than I'll ever be able to download at one time.

Nonetheless, your dedication is mind boggling, William.

Sorry to hear that, but isn't that pretty small by today's standards? After all, most Steam games range around 4-5GB to download.

Silas will be a 1.5GB for the full version when it is done. As this demo only contains 4 levels.

Amazing .... loved it.....
Everything is looking good....
I just have a question!! so u said there are 4 levels, but I can only choose the fourth one as the others say that they are unavailable during demo.... am I missing something??

The manual describes the levels that work. But I can list them here to make it easier:

Racing Levels:

Wispy Temple
Suhn Desert

Deathmatch Levels:

Snowy Pines

CTF Level:

Fire Dunes

You have to change the "level set" at the top of the menu to find the others.

Glad you liked it! Hope people start playing online soon! There are 50 ranks to achieve and full stats tracking.

Size does not matter!

But you server is slow

yeah, 9h to download

why not splitting in parts and uploading to mediafire?

i downloaded in like an hour so i cant say it was slow for ne, love the progress, cant say i like the cart controls too much though, they feel to stiff, especially since i play marioKart so often

but i guess they may actually be ok, i didnt get into it too much
