Crashing's not always a bad thing. On this course, my favourite part is when I made it so that it juggles with him and his sledge seperately. I've seen people who deliberately split them up at the begining so that they can do whole courses like that!

It is very addictive - or atleast it was for me. I think now I've made this, I've finally satisfied my need to play it... for now!

When I showed the game to my son, he declared it "crap", and went back to his "Pirates of the Caribbean" PC game!

There's no pleasing some people. Kids eh?!

This is the ORIGINAL version....

It took a good twenty minutes or so making tiny little adjustments to get the timing right, and also to make it hit him square in the nuts!

That was very impressive to get the timing correct.

That's my favorite part. Great job!

Yeah, it took me a little while to work out that it's the sudden changes in gradient that he doesn't like. You can see on this course, some of my slopes are made of loads of lines, all changing the gradient by a small amount each. It makes it work well, but it's a pain the butt to draw!

Once I got the hang of it, it didn't actually take that long to make. It's really good that you can save your courses, because it meant I could spend five or ten minutes on it every now and again, instead of trying to make it all in one sitting. That would have been incredible dedication!

Haha, it honestly didn't take that long. Like I've said already, you can save it and come back to it aswell.

Good work! you wanna see my best, It's about 3 hills ;)

Wow, thanks

agreed

Er... thanks?

Thanks

It can be really fun if your in a bad mood to see how fast you can slam him into walls. That's partly why I made the ending like it is.

Haha. Score - hero for a day!

I did something bad today, SCore - villian for a day!

Haha.

Yes, that is a tricky one, but it's a bit easier thanks to the invention of LCD monitors. Where as if you pointed your camera at the old cathode ray tube monitors, you would get an annoying flicker, LCDs are generally fine to video - and that's what I did - quite literally videoed my monitor. It still takes a bit of playing to get it right. I've found that if you make your room as dark as possible, and the screen as bright as possible, it works the best. You might need to play with your camera's settings as well. Also, I used a couple of effects in iMovie (a slight soft focus and increase in brightness). The results still aren't perfect, but I've found it to be a better method than free screen recording software, as that can often have a low frame rate and/or cause the program your trying to record to lag/become jumpy.

Ahh...well, one month later, I find out your magic, I'm a little on the slow side. But thanks for the awesome info! I'm gonna try that!

Haha, that's great.

i hate you for getting me addicted to it..i didn't get anywhere..keep falling off

Yeah, sorry about that. I know how you feel - I was hooked for ages. The flag feature is really useful - you press it while the guy is sliding down the slopes, and then the next time you press play, he starts from the flag. I found it quite useful for getting the landing slopes right.

This course really didn't take that long - however, I had been playing around with it for a couple of days before I started on this course, so I had gotten pretty good at it. I knocked this bad boy out in record time. I think I actually spent longer trying to get him to land in the right place at the end than I did on the rest of the entire course!

Zoomed out, it looks pretty much the same, just a bit more zoomed out haha. But yeah, it's not that much different except it's a littler harder to see what's going on, so it's not really worth it.

My years of doodling finally have a use!

High road eh? That was alright... 5/10.

... haha. Just kidding. It had some nice background scenery.
