The graphics are excellent, the controls easy to use, and best of all, it's endlessly fun!" [5/5] "How can you go wrong ! - This game is smooth as a sheet of ice !! Love it" Welcome to Ski Safari! Ski Safari is where Animals, Avalanches and Action come together to create a new casual gameplay experience. Our deep sleeping hero has to stay ahead of a relentless avalanche that threatens the local mountainsides. Sven, as we like to call him, can use animals to aid his escape from an icey end. Each of the hillside animals have different attributes to make a speedier escape. Penguins glide further, Yetis are tougher, Eagles soar to great heights, each of these can provide useful advantage for Sven. Sometimes on the slopes Sven can find fast Snowmobiles which can ferry multiple animals a maintain a very high top speed. Staying ahead of the avalanche has its advantages and perks. Completing objectives can 'level up' Sven and increase his score multiplier. Riding animals, performing backflips add to the score and with an increased score multiplier Sven will rocketing up the highscore table with ease.

Makes me think of a combination of Tiny Wings (but tilted at an angle) and Super Quick Hook's Avalanche mode. shirka Member Feb 14, 2010 12 0 0 #4 shirka, Apr 25, 2012 Sweet! Love the artwork. Instabuy for me! BrendanW New Member Apr 19, 2012 2 0 0 Programmer #5 BrendanW, Apr 25, 2012 The second video is from an earlier build, it was an entry into a contest for Unity. You can have a play if you like here: http://unity3d.com/contest/flash-in-a-flash/. Here's a direct link: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2854524/ski_safari/ski_safari_flash_preview.html. The game has come along since then but it will give you an idea of how addicting it can be. Enjoy!

I know I have heard that song before, maybe a Crash game? BrendanW New Member Apr 19, 2012 2 0 0 Programmer #15 BrendanW, Apr 25, 2012 Thanks for the vid Sanuku, it looks like you got the hang of it pretty quickly. The first gameplay video posted (after the trailer) was from an older build for the Unity Flash in a Flash contest. There's a playable version on the site if you want to check it out, just look for Ski Safari on the page here: http://unity3d.com/contest/flash-in-a-flash/. The iOS version has more stuff and polish than that build but it'll give you an idea. Cheers, Brendan morganj Well-Known Member Aug 31, 2009 49 0 0 #16 morganj, Apr 26, 2012 It is Universal, so no problems on that front. Hope you enjoy it - we're very happy with how it came out! TheFrost Well-Known Member Nov 18, 2010 5,772 0 0 #17 TheFrost, Apr 26, 2012 Bought... impressions soon nesio718 Well-Known Member Jun 16, 2010 914 0 0 getting paid.... Sunny South FL!! #18 nesio718, Apr 26, 2012 Thank you TheFrost Well-Known Member Nov 18, 2010 5,772 0 0 #19 TheFrost, Apr 26, 2012 Game Impressions Okay so now onto Ski Safari... Game features the same upgrade system as Tiny Wings, with plenty of missions. Art, sounds, all very good, is also a game that gets faster (or slower) depending on how good you are, the tricks you do, animals you ride, etc... That free falling feeling is good. Polished There is no retry button when you die, you have to go back to the menu. No achievements. Not as thrilling as I thought, but not boring at all No IAP at all or anything similar I would suggest swipe control methods to do different tricks and some roller-coaster stuff. Also, where are those omnipresent things in Ski world: Flags?, maybe adding them like making some sections involving them, jumping over them is some puzzle way?
