WinterBoarder
About
[Description as written on the original GameMaker Community forum post, originally 25 December 2013]
Summary:
Born of desperation of trying to find an idea for a Winter event for Suh Burb and Jbax'S Winter Themed Challenge, I bring you Winterboarder, an official Suh Burb spin-off (literally)!
Take to the slopes and land flips to grow your scores and take on the Community with the Online Highscore Board!
Key Feature List:
- The Perfect Platforming Engine as seen in Suh Burb is now even better!
- Mis-land and be launched over cliffs as a Ragdoll!
- Grab your headphones and listen to the Entirely Original Soundtrack by the incredible Kyle Walter and M.E.S.
- Dynamic Wind and Snow Sound Effects for that extra bit of realism!
- Play during Different Times of Day and watch the 3d Skydome roll by as you fly down the slopes. Play in the bright sun of day, or the stars of night!
- As you get better, prove your place among the ranks with the Online Highscores powered by GMechanism! [Currently disabled to modernize and move from GMech to my own databases.]
- Silky smooth Skeletal Animation gives beautiful lifelike motion for tricks and movement!
- Infinitely Long Randomly Generated Mountains but check the options to choose your own random seed!

Right Arrow - Rotate Right
