We've seen a ton of Big Indie Pitch contestants come through our metaphorical doors over the years and now Mutt Runners by Crackerjack Games has joined the ranks as it comes out of soft-launch this Thursday.

Mutt Runners is an RPG in which you race dogs in single or multiplayer campaigns. Featuring elements similar to Mario Kart (with power-ups and mystery boxes), you control your movements by swiping across the screen.

Different breeds of dog and different terrains full of environment-specific obstacles will be unlocked as you progress across the map. Once you get far enough you'll also unlock features such as breeding, to create some sensationally odd-looking hybrids.

Multiplayer mode lets you race real-time against friends or total strangers across the globe, similar to racing games such as Micro Machines.

Watch this space, though Mutt Runners has had a rather lengthy soft-launch in Australia, it'll launch worldwide free-to-play on iOS this Thursday 1st September. We'll let you know the moment it drops.
