SNOW is the first true freeride and freestyle game for skiers and snowboarders. Based on the free-to-play model, SNOW looks to restart the winter sports genre taking the player back to basics refining scale, physics and controls to capture the majesty of the mountain. SNOW is a game for riders, by riders.
SNOW will be released for free later this year and developed according to feedback from the community.
Is there somewhere where there is a new manual for tricks and such, especially with a gamepad?
I have heard that there are now hang drags and screamin seamens?
And a suggestion for the final game: I think there should be a tutorial, or at least a menu where you can see all the key bindings and such.
Overall great game though!

sorry, just realized there arent hangdrags.
also when skiing switch you cant get a lot of speed and can rarely make the jumps
We've been working on a new Lo2 Park and finally have something to share.
Here's an overview of the park, blocked out in our whitebox level.
You can see that we have 6 rail features and 3 jump features and at the end a hip-jump with a rail feature too. We worked on this with a professional park designer and think it's a massive improvement over the previous park - all the angles are correct and there are lots of different ways to hit each feature.
Here's a preview of the first rail feature (#2 in the above image).
We will post the rest of the features over the next few days :)
Will the new park be in addition to the current one, or will it be replacing it? Looks good so far!!! Oh and will you guys be adding 2015 gear? Like maybe have option of using *for example* 2014 skis or 2015, and keep the old and have new
@Espen519 - we are working with our brands to always have the latest gear in the game. It won't be perfect at first as we are a small team and have lots of other art stuff to do, but in the future we will have the latest season's gear in game as soon as it's out.
@kbalogh - mac support coming "soon". We're waiting for Crytek to provide us with the tech.
@Tree60$ - that will probably be M5 as we're working on a new UI/main menu to support all of this
uyghurIts looking great, I think there should be a scissor animation on rails like in shredsauce. It just looks so weird sliding it completely flat
this
and you should sort of (not completely like THPS) lock on to rails. shredsauce isnt to bad to manually land on the rails. I've found snow is quite a different beast to hit rails though. I just avoid them and hit the jumps
M4 will also launch with a completely new rail mechanics. This will include scissoring your skis to lock onto rails as well as some behind the scenes "assistance" to make sure you land on the rail and stay on it.

yes, M4 will release after the summer - we will be premiering it at Gamescom (a german games convention) and probably putting it up on the test server around then too
Man, to think how far this game has come since its first alpha launch a while back! Thanks so much to the devs for creating this game.
With the test releases, could you add features as you implement them without doing all of the lengthy PR stuff and bug testing, so that you could get a large amount of bug feedback from the players without spending too long on it yourselves.
I dunno, just an idea ;)
Also, I just checked on the website and I really like it. In the promo video, it mentions a closed beta. Sorry if I missed this, but what does it entail and how does one sign up/get invited?
On the new website it says "Change the face of the mountain and
adapt the terrain to your style. Add
jumps, rails and other features dynamically
anywhere on the mountain." Is this a feature to come or can I add my own stuff already and have not realized it?
When will you release M4 for people who bought starter pack? I realize you are giving to testers first, but hopefully the rest of us can get it soon also, like this week would be legit
