Hello! I've been working on this as a little side project over the summer. It's way better if you have a controller but you can play with the keyboard if you don't have one. Try it, there are plenty of bugs!

umm, is there anyway you could make it so you could change the keys around, like choose the buttons that do certain things, because right now i can only ski left which is pretty annyoing.

haha we really need the ability to multi-quote. I tried answering a few questions not to keep you guys completely in the dark.

"umm, is there anyway you could make it so you could change the keys around, like choose the buttons that do certain things, because right now i can only ski left which is pretty annyoing."

The keyboard controls are sort of wonky, I'll have to fix that.

"Ya Malcom you should definitely open source that shit. I've worked a bit myself with the unity engine, not the only one on here who does either. Now that you posted this people will harass you so much for updates and stuff haha."

I haven't discarded the idea of open source/ crowd source yet but I'm going to keep working on it by myself for now.

-emile-
"r3 = a huge fucking boost"

haha yeah I put that in because I didn't always have enough speed for jumps

CoryFlynn
"Whens the next update gonna be?"

That depends how much time I have. I'm going to update it pretty soon though. I've been testing a few of the suggestions.

k.wags$
"is it insanely glitchy for anyone else?"

Sometimes when I have too much shit open the game lags a little, even on a powerful computer. I'll have to redo the lean animations at some point because they jitter and stay stuck sometimes.

PJS.$
"Just realized I cant reach g or h with a cast on."

Awe shit! I'm open to suggestions if you guys think the keyboard controls should be rearranged. I've played Gnarshmallow so much that I just copied the same button layout.


I absolutely fucking love that people are posting trick tips. And the edits are sick!

could you also make the skier pop a little bit higher? It's sort hard to get on rails without going so fast you skip half the rail.

This is such a Sick game!!! thanks Malcom. I was thinking the addition of a session marker (like in the skate games) would be cool.

Also farther along if we could get better pop, better keyboard layout, better speed control. Shifties that work with grabs. and maybe new maps or a park editor? that would be so sick!!
Props to you Malcom

malcom thank you so much for the awesome game.

I play with my keyboard, and It's hard to stop rotating. is that a bug or am I doing it wrong. Also how much work do you plan on utting into this, I may buy a ps3 controller.

The rails are so fun though, I have all of them locked down, keep the pop the same, any higher and it's unrealistic. The character literally displays tom wallisch's style on rails, the scissoring and popping is off the chain.

Another fun tranny is the lil jump straght ahead of the star attached to the wallride, yumping form there to the landing of the jumps on the right is hella fun, maybe with the speed boost you can make it to the landing of the left jump/rail setup.

I don't see many disadvantages of open sourcing the game, people will have a hardtime stealing credit for your work in such a tight knit community and we will have access to far more levels. Also with unity's support for sketchup and blender people will be able to play around with their own creations without having to spend money which is a huge plus.

Great work on the game, hope you continue working on it!

a few tips that i would like, a button to tap into and off rail/boxes. and a button to butter, i think those would be cool.

one thing i noticed, is riding into the wall ride it just stops me while im trying to hit it, i know a shitty way of explaining it.

just a bug i have noticed if you havent caught it yet, but if you hit the ramp up to the cannon box, you can just dead stop sometimes.

Great game! I've never really used unity, but how difficult would it be to make sessions markers? Also, after you are satisfied with your work, I highly recommend open source, because one of the only things I like about jibbin is making clothes, grab packs, and glitchy maps. Congratulations on the game, good to see that somebody is finally actually coming out with a ski game, not just telling people how great there's is. *cough* JIBLIFE *cough* SNOW *cough*

I literally haven't stop playing since this game came out. My only suggestion is to make the lock on to rails a little stronger. It can get pretty hard to grind he actually rails when playing with the keyboard.

Also an "auto-correct feature would be nice, like SSX. What I mean by that is when you throw huge tricks, towards the end, the players feet are kind of pulled back to the ground so you dont have retarded looking landings.
