SNOW is the first true freeride and freestyle game for skiers and snowboarders. Based on the free-to-play model, SNOW looks to restart the winter sports genre taking the player back to basics refining scale, physics and controls to capture the majesty of the mountain. SNOW is a game for riders, by riders.
SNOW will be released for free later this year and developed according to feedback from the community.
SNOWTheGameOh, and about the keybinding issues people have been having. Unfortunately some keyboards don't like too many inputs at once. We're looking for a solution...
Could you allow consecutive taps instead of holding down the button? I know that's how Malcolm got around this problem in shredsauce (tweaked grabs)
SNOWTheGame@Longer jump lines: If you explore you can find a lot of great lines down the mountain. My favorite takes me down through the ice cave and just to the right of the small park. By the time i hit the river I've probably got like 10+ jumps under my belt.
thanks ill look around.
Also, the game is running great and the graphics are insane! the grabs look awesome
only thing i would want at this point is audio and instant replay maybe cinematic to see the sick shit i just stomped
POV is working great and is a whole different experience to me! riding switch doesnt look perfect yet but you will get there.
Someone needs to make an official thread walking people through how to get it to run on a Mac. A step by step in getting bootcamp or whatever it needs to run. Great job on the game guys, I haven't been able to play it yet, but it looks great.

That handdrag cork 3 was insane. Next physics step for the devs: use the newly physicalised skis to create the impression of a more dynamic rider, ie wobbly skis when landing, presses on snow and allow the skis to bend somewhat, like in a really backseat landing.
Hey Poppermost! The game is running a hell of a lot smoother now than it did for me before.
One (kinda big) problem for me is that my character is really fucked up and I can't see a lot. Might be due to me not having played in about 6 months so old skins or something? I have no clue but here are some screenshots of in game. I tried changing clothes and stuff but these didn't work.
I didnt think this game was still going on, but I watched that edit it looks sick! Do i have to buy it on steam or is there a free version out at this point?
bought it and downloaded, now having the same problem as the guy above me with the character all over the place. i know close to nothing about computers, but i think downloading this will update my graphics card?

Is that what is recommended for a graphics driver update? I suppose you could try it, I'm not sure what harm it would do. It's not working for you now, so I would go for it.
Also, as I am running the game smoothly on a 2011 MacBook Pro, would anyone like me to go through the process of running SNOW through BootCamp on a Mac? Like a tutorial? I can't guarantee results would be the same for everyone, but I know I got it working fine.

What graphics card have you got? Ive got a 2011 Macbook pro and its has a 384MB graphics card, does your have that and run smoothly? If so, a tutorial would be sick

If you could make a vid or something for a tutorial on this it would be 100% appreciated and 10/10 karma

It's an upgraded 15". It has an AMD Radeon 6750M, with 1024 MB VRAM. It's possible you could run it, I'm not sure. I can get my Mac to run Crysis and Crysis 2 on max settings, and with faster FPS using a handy application known as the Razer Game Booster. It's free and awesome. Try it for everything.

.squirrely.i survived dude, looks like we have the same problem though. did you figure it out?
Na was hoping you'd get it. I tried this http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/detect/graphics and it seemed to work; detected a new driver for me, but after downloading it and trying to install I would get error messages saying the update wasn't right for me.
DutchhGutssHow do you do the update on your windows 8 laptop. I just did all the normal updates and nothing and just downloaded stream how do you update that?
To my knowledge, Steam auto-updates itself every time you login. Is it not doing this automatically?
if you're having trouble installing your driver updates, that's unfortunately something I can't really help with. I'd recommend to google the error message it's giving you and seeing if you can find a solution... sorry
im a real computer noob in terms of hardware and shit but google has revealed the 740m and the radeon arent much different. i know the i7 will be much faster and the 8gb of ram is excellent. thoughts on this instead?

Both will easily handle snow, my computer is about 1/10 as good and can run it fine.
The nvidia card has twice the video memory which means exponentially increased processing speed. Anything higher than 8 GB of ram should be reserved for those who do some serious multi tasking and graphically intensive work, so 8gb is perfect. And of course the i7 is going to be way faster than the i5, not to mention they both have a program which automatically increase their power under high load.
In short, the i7 computer is much more value for the money but both will do what you want and then some.
