I guess it was just all hype.
Their website hasn't been touched in 3 months.

You're not correct.
Just because it's not updated daily with new renderings doesn't mean it's not someday getting released.

Jib said they're still chugging along, and an update won't be present until the finished product is ready.

Bull shit. They said first for computer, then they'll try for other methods.

I'm sorry that I don't believe you, but that would severely cut down the amount of ppl willing to get the game. I don't have an ipod touch/iphone and don't intend on getting one. A lot of other people would be pretty mad with this as well including me!!

I seriously can't believe that they'd switch like that without letting people know!

Yeah I'd bet that its not happening.

They've been working on it for eight years and all they have to show for it is a drawing and a rendering or two. And for eight years of work, they're certainly nothing to get excited about.

I'm not trying to shit on Jib-Life, because if he's actually making a game that's sick. But until I see some gameplay footage, I remain less than impressed. Stoked for a potential ski game, but not impressed based off of what I have seen so far.

Who remembers that "ski company" that was just a bunch of kids who put up a website and painted a pair of heads to make it look like they pressed them?

We have made no such announcement of our game being exclusive to any system, as such we have MADE NO announcement of it being released on the iPhone/iTouch platforms.

We are still hard at work, and we have changed gears as to the current platform we are developing for, this does not mean we are ONLY developing on this platform, it also does not mean that you should jump to conclusions as to what platform it will be.

When we are ready and when the game is far enough along that we are comfortable showing it, that is when you will find out your answers. For now you will need to just continue speculating :: )

Cheers,

Ben

too much hype. Someone working at JibLife should leak a video of gameplay.

lol coming from the person who suggested we ramp back the hype.....

you all will get video when we have something we are pleased with, until then keep the speculation/hatred coming because it provides some great lol's for all of us.

So you're still not pleased with anything after 8 years? Just stop. You could have gone to grad school by now...


I almost get depressed opening Jibbin Game or Gnarshmallow now because I had so much hope for a real ski game. What Jib Life was supposed to be.
