Although we chatted a bit through e-mail, I thought about stopping by and leave a comment to thank you for your review and, above all, your encouraging comments. It really means a lot to me, as I am a one-man team with no budget and no background in computer graphics, sound effects, 3D animation, music, mathโ€ฆ talking about a big challenge, eh!

Check again. These two games are doing much better than most other games released around this time.

Like those Street Fighters and the Tekkens and the BlazzityBlues? Don’t make it like that! ๐Ÿ˜€

The whole point of the game is to go snowboarding.. Throw yourself down a hill and flip your guy wildly, or take it seriously and try to snowboard like a real human being would. It’s all up to you – there are no rules. Freedom. That was my goal anyways…

I do plan on doing a patch to accommodate the apparent large number of people that just want to fly down the hill at full speed and not die (arcade/simulation modes). Also, I have a guy with some killer tunes that want in on the action.

As far as adding ramps and such, I just don’t know if I can accomplish that. It is randomly generated terrain and I’m pretty dumb at 3D math as it is. herp derp

Anyway. I hope someone enjoys it. ๐Ÿ™‚

I didn’t know I asked a question.. ๐Ÿ˜›

I suppose it might be because the XBLIG avatar section isn’t that well advertised anymore.

Hi Guys!

Be nice to Aaron. He’s a kind fellow and a good supported for XBLIG.

Actually, that were my thoughts, too. I wondered if the player in the video made any attempt at all to control his avatar or if was just deliberately fooling around.
