ABOUT

  • Slopes are generally friendlier
    • The player now only slips on 45-degree slopes if less than half of them is touching the ground.

This is brilliant. One of the most polished games I’ve seen on here. I didn’t make it far in the game bc I’m playing on mobile right now. I will be coming back to this
