The game is very fun, just try it.
I'm not quite sure what I just played
I mean
there was a cat
on a plank of wood
surfing
what
It did not work for me, i could only see the sky and falling snow with the score counter. I tried it few times :c
Loved it, the leaderboard was a nice touch, all it needed was more sound.
Game crashed when I tried to open it. Looks pretty funny though!
What did I just play?
I'm also having issues running this unfortunately, but it looks great!
Here's the most suspicious error in the output:
15/12/2015 14:01:45.358 ERROR ..\..\..\Humangine\src\ShaderManager.cpp:90: Fragment shader failed to compile with the following errors:
ERROR: 0:70: error(#160) Cannot convert from: "4-component vector of vec4" to: "highp float"
Good fun game !
Nice job! The infinite map generation works well. The controls are a bit wonky but it's still playable - plus with some skill there's some mad jumps to be made :D Also the powerups work fine and seem to be well balanced.
My main suggestion would be to tweak the physics/controls a bit and use more consistent art style (graphics+sound) ; other than that it's a pretty good entry.
Most ammount of fun Ive ever had with a taxidermy cat. perfectly mounted on its mahogany base too.
Wasnt exagerating with the fun bit either. Give me this over SSX anyday ;)
Didn't work for me either, I can only see the falling snow (and that I'm getting score/losing lives).
It's an interesting game. It would be nice if the controls were a little tighter. Also, it seems like the hit boxes for the trees won't let you go under the branches.
I am also having problems playing the game. First I see some snow falling, then white textureless cat (I assume its the surfing cat).
Then theres count down...afterwards lot of garbage appear and I cant figure out whats going anymore. Wanted to try this game badly :/
I need to beat this Highscore somehow....>.>....<.< and it has cats!
Did not work for me, camera is stuck in white cloud at the beginning doing nothing :/
Very silly game. Well done on the leaderboard.
not working. just snow and weird white shapes. i'm on windows.
i like cat's and the game is fun :)
@DeathBySnail: That particular bug should be fixed.
@others: You need at least OpenGL 3.2, or it just won't work. Maybe you can find solace in the YouTube video ;)
Yay, made it onto the high score... for a while at least :D
Fun game. Big kudos for going with your own engine, that's really awesome.
I had to link my librtmp.so.1 to librtmp.so.0 for the game to start, as that version of the lib was not bundled and I had a later version installed.
Otherwise the game ran great, launched in fullscreen on my 34" monitor, was a very immersive experience.
Now I truly feel like a cat going downhill on a plank of wood :P
Also really cool with online high scores, gives the game a lot of replayability.
Only thing I can complain about is that the camera was a bit jumpy at times.
10/10 Has Cat
Although i too was having issues, after clicking the screen i was sent into what i can only assume was the game. my "cat" was a giant garbled sphere, and so was everything else. i couldn't see the floor.
Why would a kitty go down a slope? because it is fun! nice game! The lowtech graphics are just perfect, maybe the steering needs more balancing.
I have one word for it: CATS.
Seriously tho, it was a snowboarding cat. What's not to like?
Aww, it locked the cursor, black screened and then crashed over here, nuts, still, the youtube video looked pretty nice :)
In-case it helps with debugging, On a dual monitor set-up on Win7 Pro 64-bit.
I love sliding games. good job with this one, I could spend hours playing if I had the time <3
I can't stop laughing! One of the best entry!
Oddly soothing...
Winter sports entry! Nice! =)
Cat on the snowboard is the great idea! :)
Fun game and nice 3d graphics, weird theme though xD. The controls are a bit non-responsive.
Good Job :)
It did not work for me, I had a kind of bugged sphere in the middle of nowhere, not really anything looking like a cat.
This was actually really fun! Good job on the engine, runs really smoothly. I got 2nd place on the board!
This games give me a nice mood.. It does not fit on any theme though.
What did i just... k this is a weird but hella fun looking game please make a post-jam version of this :p
Gameplay actually seemed pretty solid for how simple the game is, graphics were good too, and the concept was wacky and different but in a good way. Good entry!!
nice game) beutiful art. all the peoplle love cats!
Great game! Very simple controls but difficult to stay alive for long. It is very satisfying once you start gaining speed. My friend made Top 1 on the board! Loved it.
Reminds me of old Nokia games. Nice, i guess.
*surfs down the hill* *hits a tree* "Au!" Girlfriend in the back: "no, meow!" And she was right!
Reminds me a lot of Tux Racer.
Aww, got the white unshaded objects as well. No way to play like that.
Really nice game, needs a bit more polish and visual feedback but it's pretty fun to play. And it has kittens.
Idea is fun! But still needs quite some polish. Didn't jump much because it didn't feel all that useful. A menu would and a way to reset the game without quitting would be nice. Still, overall pretty good entry. (And first place on the leader board baby! :p)
There is something nice in steering controls. Personally I would like to sly as dolphin.
And there could be bouns for killing snowman mid air.
This is very funny.
I wish the cat was animated. I so badly wanted to see him/her doing tricks while in the air. Maybe I just played too many snowboarding games growing up?
The game would be more fun it you wasn't driving a cat :P
Couldn't get it to run on my i7. Just a black screen. Looks like a great concept.
Kitty Glacier Surfing... OKAY! Overall I liked the feel of surfing once I got used to the controls, although I didn't feel the need to jump much. I think I was trying to avoid everything and only just realized you could kill snowmen. I just flew into them and died :D
It would be wonderful to have a bit more feedback when you get hit and lose a life. Sometimes I was hitting rocks and taking no damage, whereas if I was even 1 meter away from a tree it felt like I got damaged by it.
Nice (infinite) snow-slope runner sub-theme co-competitor entry. The randomness can cause the track to be essentially completely blocked but with the 9 lives it's not so bad. Nicely done.
Sometimes, colliding into a boulder at full speed causes the cat to bounce off of it, moving up hill, and through the slope's walls. To be fair, after successfully clipping out of the level, I was able to sled back in, so yay?
Simple game with oddly slippery controls. I wasn't sure I was in control, moving the mouse left and right, after sliding down at higher speeds. Random level design generation could be more forgiving, as there were points where I couldn't go through any further. Then again, I did get a high score of 700+.
Let's go surfing now, everyone is learning how come on a safari with me.

Sorry, left-clicking, of course! :-)
