New park game

I'm having a really hard time getting used to the controls because I've played too much shredsauce and snow throughout the years.

I am having an issue though, and I don't know if it's with my controller or the game itself. My controller seems to stop recognizing inputs when I'm pressing more than 3 buttons at once. I can't seem to do corks while grabbing. I am almost certain I had this issue in snow too

I've heard of that with keyboards (it's called ghosting) but never with a controller. Tried to search around for a solution but couldn't find anything. What controller are you using?

Game keeps crashing in 5 secs after loadin in. Is anyone else having this issue?

I had pre-release version and no issues thus far. Are you PC/Mac? Specs?

Neither me nor any of my friends how have played it have experienced this problem. I can only suggest you to delete the game and redownload it.

No offense but i dont think you could even run minecraft on that thing,

also where is the download link?

You can download it herehttps://newskigame.com/game/
 
Game is sick, Personally i prefer playing with lower settings, as theres less but, but here is my feedback

1. the blunt grab doesnt work, he misses the grab everytime

2. When on the rail, could you alter the jump height, and also make nollies work, so it could be more real?

3. Physics. the physics are good, but if you let go of the stick, you instantly stop the rotation. I feel like a phsics engine would help the game drastically

4. on rails, the pedalling is based off of yhe players rotation. this should be changed to be based on the downhill ski, because when your doing continuing swaps, your ski just ends up going through the rail

5. oh yea, can you even crash XD

Besides that this game is fucking amazing, i love the air tricks, and doing cork and zero spin nosebonks, so big ups!

yeah I was confused as well, I thought it was a keyboard phenomena. I'm using a wired xbox 360 controller. I'll try it again with this and in snow after I get home from work

Odd, I've never had that issue with my wired 360 controller before. I'm getting a new one (been using a Dualshock 4 in it's absence) tomorrow so I'll report back if I have the same issues.

No problemos so far with a wired xbox one controller. Sometimes you need to download/update software on your pc to make it work so maybe there is an updated version?

Otherewise, the game.

Pros:

Super easy to learn controls

Very well made, love the skier model and all the smaller motions that make it seem more realistic (ex. skiing switch and such)

Map is awesome

Love the speed monitor and bar

Qualms

Skier maybe locks onto rails maybe too easily? Just being nitpicky here

Blunt/tail grabs are a bit off

Skier cant wipe out, not a con at all but it would be nice to see a ragdoll feature if you dont land perfectly

Butter animation could use a but more pressing instead of staying perfectly upright - think shredsauce.

To my man Martin,

You got no idea how awesome it is to see somebody not only working on a ski game in their free time but also making it available to others for free as well. As a first sorta foray into this type of game, its fucking killer man. No matter what happens with reviews or how tough it gets, just know that we as a community are thankful and supportive of what you have done here man. Ill definitely be dropping a few bucks to your new PC fund haha.
 
Game is pretty great man! It'll take some time to unlearn shredsauce and steep but I can't complain. Really nice it's locally stored on my computer and not exclusively a flash game, especially when I have my laptop on trips with no internet.
 
This is extremely hopefull and probably a bad questions but will we ever see a mobile port of the game? I'd pay some decent money for that.
 
Hey guys! Im sorry but the Mac version will have to wait one more day. The reason for this is that I dont own a Mac myself and it is not possible to export the Mac version from my Windows computer. I was going to borrow a Mac from a friend but it turned out he needed it himself so I will go to school and use their Mac tomorrow. Once again, sorry for the delay.

i cant launch the game. any help? im using 7zip as my unpacker but i just keep getting errors

Can you not unzip the files or once the files are unzipped, you can't launch the game? What error are you seeing? Also, what are you using to launch the game? Screenshots help

when i open in 7zip and try to open the newskigame_testversion i get couldnt open snewskigametestdemo () returned 2

is there a specific way is hould be opening it or with a specific app? i ahev a strong gaming rig so i know it has nothing to do with my computer

This is pretty random but it would be cool if you made it so you have the option to ride a lift in the game to get back to the top. idk but I've always wanted a game you can do that but I'm not a game dev so I don't know if that would be pretty hard or not to bad I would love this game so much if this was possible though

1. Yeah the grabs, not only the blunt, needs some editing.

2. Maby a solution to this would be to add a setting where you can change the jump height in the pause menu.

3. I have fixed this now. If you stop rotating mid air you will continue to rotate untill you land.

4. Yeah, I think I need to have different animations for the rails depending on the width of the rail to avoid the skis going through the rail.

5. I am currently working on fixing the crash function, the problem I had was that I set the direction vector on each take off based on the rotation of the character and not taking the velocity into account. This made it so that if you were 90degrees rotated on a rail when you jump off it the function did not compensate for the 90 degrees. I think I have fixed this now, will try it out tonight if I have the time.

Hey thanks a lot man for the kind words! You have no idea how glad I get from reading things like this. I will defenetly update the butter animation. If you choose to donate do you think you could send me a message after and telling me that you have donated so I can check if the donation feature works?

I dont want to say never but right now I wil focus on the computer version but if there is time it would be really cool to make a mobile game aswell :)

I dont now why it crashes, have you tried using winrar to extract the downloaded rar file and than launch the game?

13939733:Hogolord said:
Will you be able to use keyboard to play?

Looks so good

I have been thinking about adding keyboard controls but the problem that I have with it is that you can not choose how fast you want to rotate since a keyboard only have input 1 or 0 while a thumbstick on a crontroller have the entire range from 1 to 0.

Adding a lift that you can ride would not be any problem I can add it to the demo :)
 
Martin, first off just want to way I'm a huge fan of this game, so stoked you took it on your self to make a game where you can actually cork and rodeo in a realistic way. Loved playing it so far.

I think the only way to make the grabs more realistic is to have them change depending on the spin of the player, for example, if a player is doing a cork 7 tail grab it will be a lot more compressed then if they are doing a 10 or 12. Or if a player is doing a double 10 safety their legs should open up more during the cork 3 then during the first 7. I don't know how hard that would be to program in, but I think it would really make things a lot more realistic.

Sick game though, really stoked on this game so far, can't wait to see the updates.

there should be the option to wait in holiday weekend lines too!!!!11!!1!1!1!1!!!1!!!1!1!11
 
I still can't download the game. Its in my zip and I installed all the apps but it still won't open

I am a dumbass on pc's and its probably pretty easy but some help would be nice

I am done with the Mac version now, could anyone of you take a minute to test it out before I release it so we know that it works.

I can also test it if you need. Right now I can't even access the game's website though...

I understand your point, and I am just trying to help here. A physics engine brings in a ton of problems based around "I can't get the feel of the game correct". This is because the physics engine is creating other, more complicated equations, which add to the problem of making the game, character, and the overall feel of the game, act exactly as the creator wants it. A physics engine introduces a bunch of other movements, physics materials, and rotation issues.
