Ski Free but istead you ski you eat.

Fun game! Maybe a skier should be worth more than 2 seconds of gameplay.

It's a sin that the food doesn't last longer cause I could play that much longer than my skill allows. Love the throwback to Ski Free from the other side, hilarious!

Nice tribute game :D

Nice! It just sucks that I can't play for even a minute at a time because of all the long times with nobody to eat.

This is a perfect idea for this theme! I mean, who doesn't remember sitting down at their computer playing this game?? Oh, memories...

It seemed like there were some pretty significant gaps where there were no skiiers... not sure if I was just too far in one direction on the X axis or something, but there were a few times where the poor monster almost starved to death.

I made it to the top, but there was only trees blocking my way, and, in the end, the monster succumbed to hunger and died.

5/5, would eat free again.

I love, love, love, love the eating animation. Only problem with the game is there aren't enough skiers. I couldn't eat enough of them to stay alive. Still awesome though!

Haha thanks for the comments, it is hard to balance the skiier spawn rate. Too high and they clump up and it becomes too easy, too low and there isn't anyone around...

team-myopia 2015-08-28 01:50

Also, for people looking to get more fun out of it, download the source, open in unity, and tweak the spawn rates! I definitely had a lot of fun cranking them up and going nuts

Invokes good memories!

Guys, I had a very similar idea at the beginning of the event! Pretty crazy that someone has implemented it!

team_ftlol 2015-08-28 02:00

Ooh, looks cool. Any chance of a Linux build? Or WebGL?

aucguy 2015-08-28 02:48

There weren't enough people to eat and the game ended pretty quickly.

Up arrows suggested I run upwards: There were no skiiers to be found up there, at least that I saw. The idea is sublime, and I commend the finer touches on having skiiers run into trees, but it was remarkably difficult to survive - my high score is 4. Beautiful use of the theme.

Loved this. So much fun. Got repetitive after a while and I just let the monster starve to see what would happen. =P Great Job!

creamybacon1 2015-08-28 04:00

I love it!

khaotom 2015-08-31 02:40

Soooo good. At long last I can get revenge on those damn snowboarders. Thank you for this.

lukbebalduke 2015-08-31 02:41

I liked the art style, the music and the animations. The gameplay was also very cool, but it could have more features. Overall, it was really fun. Congrats =)

mathmadlen 2015-09-04 22:25

This was quite hilarious... I loved the little animations. Starved to death a few times, it seems skiers aren't that nourishing. whoever said sport is healthy...

bunn1e5 2015-09-04 22:50

Absolutely awesome~!

Now at the last rating day I'm finding games with similar idea of mine. It's fun!
I've made a compo entry so I've spent a lot of time drawing the graphics, but I think your game has a better gameplay and it's more challenging than mine.
