Version 1.3.3

You can now rebind movements too, including driving controls. So if you e.g. prefer accelerating with W and doing tricks with the arrow keys, it's an easy adjustments.

Also, the button prompts are now updated after adjusting rebindings.

Control rebinding



I know that many of you have been asking for this feature for a long time and I was planning to include it in the first release, but there's some complexity connected to it with all the different activities. Anyway, rebinding of controls is now possible! I still recommend using the default controls, but the feature is obviously here to stay so you are welcome to give me feedback on how I can improve it.

I also have watched the Brazilian streamer Lude (yes, almost like the game) lately, which has given me ideas for other things that need to be fixed.

Version 1.3.0
- Control rebinding added

Version 1.3.1
- Control rebinding translations
- Fixed a couple of Portuguese translation errors
- Menu windows are no longer slightly too high for ultra-wide screens

Version 1.3.2
- Lock the cursor to the game window, except for when the game is paused (useful if you have two screens)
- More ultra-wide screen compability fixes
- Fixed issues with a few sound clips that weren't affected by volume settings
- Fixed issue with the select card game menu
- There's no longer possible to set the quality level to 0 by pressing a key
- A couple of more minor fixes

- Added a separate leaderboard for easy mode in the fly through wings challenge and removed the separate leaderboards for a couple of purple coins challenges

Version 1.1.0 (and 1.1.1)

This is the first update with a new feauture. You can now wear a backpack and more wearables might be included in future updates. You find it in Ludde's house.

Other than that, there are some big improvments players have asked for.

- Wearable backback
- When playing hockey, the aim arrow now rotates vertically too
- Skis now have better grip
- Fixed issue where rollable snowballs sometimes disappeared

- Lots of minor fixes and improvments



Let me know if there are anything you wish for in the next update.

Version 1.0.6

If you feel like the camera rotation is too choppy, now you can make it smoother by adjusting camera smoothing in the graphics options window. I recommend setting it to 3.

Launch trailer released

We're getting really close to release now! I just updated the game to version 1.0.0, which in other words means that the game is release ready. This Friday (December 1) you can play around with snow, collect stuff, break new records in minigames, and explore the beautiful winter environment while riding (or flying!) a snowmobile.

The lauch trailer has just been uploaded to the Steam page and Youtube, check it out!

There's so much more I'd like to show you since there really is a ton of content in this game, but the trailer can't be too long either. Stay tuned!

Portuguese and German translations added!

The demo has been out for a couple of weeks, since Steam Next Fest October, and I'm very happy to see that many people have downloaded and played the game. As advertised previously the game will be fully translated into Brazilian Portuguese and it has now been implemented, but there is also another all-new translation. The demo can now also be played in German.

To celebrate this I've raised both country flags in-game.



Many thanks to Thiago dos Santos Mania who has been very dedicated, and professional and he really went out of his way for quality assurance while working with the Portuguese translation.

The demo now also supports Steam Leaderboards, which means that you can compare your minigame scores to the Steam Community. I bet you can't beat my highscores.
