Another level would be great - I love this game - it's prevented me from getting work done whatsoever on my english paper and spanish test. meh. It's all good when you're making tracks.
PS. Must ski out jump from left rock to far right coulie. grrrr...
have skied out jump from left rock to left coulie, but I can't quite turn fast enough to get the far right coulie. Has anyone done it and has pics to prove it?
New level would be fine - what would you like to see in it (Billy goating little runs, big ass jumps - maybe a level based on a real area at a ski resort?)Quote:

I'd be down for billygoating type stuff - I think that'd be more interesting in a game than one huge ass jump. Or maybe a huge ass jump into a billy-goating area?
Yeah, tons of cliffs, maybe a few new levels. I want one jamie-pierre-is-a-pussy cliff, and lots of stuff to transfer/gap. Maybe jump a whole glade that you can ski through in a different route?
I'm starting working on a level, based on you guy's ideas, keep 'em up and I'll try to keep adding. The new version (with these levels) will have special new modifier, allowing some jumps to be big ass, and others to be little drops (for billy goatin')

edg <--- the fucking mang.
Is there a page somewhere of all the versions so far?
- straight down
- single cliff
- cliff with two couloirs
- cliff, two coolies and a glade
... others?
I can't keep track of the links.
Yeah, I'm lost too. Some guidance or new links would be appreciated.
I'll make a little page after I've got this level done. Here's a little snap of a new gap... (It's not done yet, but you can see the billy goating on the right, big ass jump on the left... If there's something you want change, say now!)
edg
if you could make the billygoat area look more like a skull than it already does.... that would be cool.
If I didn't spend so much time playing this game, I'd have a lot of homework to do....
I'll try the skull thing, perhaps :P The big ass cliff has been implemented, and now you can trasfer basically the whole way across the game area :P
edg
How bout a way to get more speed early on? I don't know how this would be implemented well, ie not a slingshot a la early mario kart, but it'd be a help with the big jump... and getting enuf speed to air it out...
or not...
The modifier on the big jump makes that less necessary than on the old version :)Quote:

If you want some help in the graphics dept, I'd be happy to do some stuff for you.
Awesome. Class just got way cooler.
Idea - how about changing the acceleration so that it is based on gravity - I would think this would be fairly easy, the skier's angle from straight down would feed into an acceleration equation, the greater the angle, the lower the acceleration.
Good idea, and I would very much :) Have you any experience in doing graphics in flash itself? As that would make it easy to implement in the game :)Quote:

Yes, I do have experience with graphics in flash,as well as exporting graphics from illustrator to flash. Let me know what you would like, and I could create the backdrop for you, just let me know how you want it done.
INDY
hey basom, I can ski like you do in real life!

outstanding time waster!
First run of level 2, as I have to go to bed. I've been trying to squash bugs (and improve the speed, it was unbelieveably slow before, when I was a bit liberable with the amount of sensors I placed) So - point out things I've missed, and presume it's going to get speedier.
Indy : I'll get in touch with you tomorrow, you're very gracious! :)
Versions available :
New Level (beta)
2 Couloirs and dual stage jump
Glades
Basic, original version
Multiplayer beta)
BTW, on the new level, pressing 'z' (Lowercase only, ATM) should cause the game to reset to the top (This can be pressed while decending or once at the bottom, and has the same effect)

Page six, must remember links are on page six.
EDG, here is a quick image that I thru together, I would like to help you out and make the graphics really sweet, maybe somewhat photo-realistic cliffs, etc, real sky, but vector snow. I will dig thru my stash of pics and see what would make a sweet background and mess around with it.
I will be out of town all next week as well as tomorrow afternoon, so I don't know how much I can do between now and tomorrow.
PM me with any suggestions or ideas.
INDY
dude! it's not letting me play.
oh man, this is almost better than the bridge building game.
so when is the first big mountain comp?
I think I'm a jibber.

loser. ;)
That looks pweeeety :) That's the kind of thing I hoping someone could do (Photo realistic sky and cliffs) - but that vector style also looks good! If you could send me that in a flash/eps format, I'll import it and make a new level, then when you're home again we can see what else we could do :)Quote:

Edg,
Should we ever run into each other, you've got first dibs on any line in front of me, and feel free to get loaded up in the bar on my tab. To say it again, you are the fucking man.
That would be cool to arrange... :PQuote:
