AYO, huge shout out to the devs on this one... You can tell that a lot of care went in to creating the ability to shred with realism andAYO, huge shout out to the devs on this one... You can tell that a lot of care went in to creating the ability to shred with realism and style.
This game has clearly been made for snowboarders by snowboarders... I love that even for an indie title, off the bat, they offer REAL outerwear brands, the ability to switch your stance, and actual current snowboarding legends in the game (yes I'm looking at you Riders Republic) The menus are maybe a bit funky and the odd smiley faces at the end of events are a bit strange, however, if you like snowboarding, or even just physics based video games in the slightest, this really is IT... The satisfying feeling of stomping a line or trick in this game is greatly enhanced by the control scheme, as well as the general sense of speed.
When you land something in this game it feels floaty and precisely executed. I cant wait to see what kind of clips come out of this community... This game gives you a playground, and all the tools you need to play in it, and that is enough to keep me quite satisfied.
I'm rating 10/10 not because it's perfect, but because, it has heart, and I really think the devs have their heads in the right place... Side note is that I wish I could purchase this and play it on my XBOX one (last gen). Currently you can only play though a beta cloud gaming service which is far from perfect in regards to performance.
