Linz, Austria - 14th November, 2024 - Snow time like the present! Byteparrot and publisher Neonhive Games are heckin' PUMPED to finally announce chaotic arcade snowboarding racer Slopecrashers launches for Steam on December 4th!
Proud participant in Z LAN 2024 (organised by celebrity streamer ZeratoR), amassing over 5 million views on TikTok, and showcased in this year's Cozy Quest, this easy-to-play, exhilarating-to-master arcade snowboarder is inspired by legendary kart racers and snowboarding games of generations past. With its next-level physics engine fine-tuned for the most satisfying stunts, slams, drifts, and glides, grab a snowboard (or even a frying pan) and hit the slopes as a madcap crew of cartoon animals - nailing sick tricks, navigating ridiculous courses, and triumphing in local split screen and online multiplayer. And did someone say CAMPAIGN MODE?!
Stunts, combos, boost - repeat! In Slopecrashers, arcade snowboarding has never felt so good with everything built around its next-level physics engine. Build mega speed by chaining together tricks, barrel forward when you unlock that bonus speedboost, and engage your glider for dizzying airtime. Master the moves and become a legend - or play dirty! Deploy ludicrous combat items, from explosives to swarms of bees, and ensure nice guys really do finish last.
So bring it on, grandma! Accessible for racers young and old, take on friends and family alike in mammoth multiplayer modes. Just like the good old days, Slopecrashers is designed with four player local split screen at its heart, so pick from over eight fully customisable cartoon animals (chicken, lemur, parrot, capybara… just imagine our veterinary bills) and go toe to toe. Claw to claw. Beak to beak? But fear not - if you've decided to embrace the Information Superhighway, duke it out in online multiplayer for up to eight players! *dial-up noises*
Looking to hone your solo skills? Slide into a globetrotting adventure in campaign mode and defeat a villainous hamster heckbent on revenge. Tailor your experience even further with arcade mode and create the snowboarding tournament of your dreams: experiment with a wild assortment of race types (including slaloms, battles, stuntshows, and shootouts) and choose your course from a combination of seven different worlds, from classic snowy tundras to a tropical jungle and a shopping mall. Each boasts two to four individual maps, so there's plenty to sink your teeth into - though, on the subject of sinking teeth into things, don't eat the yellow snow!!!
Slopecrashers launches December 4th on Steam for $17.99 (with a 15% discount). For more info, boost to the store page on Steam. To review Slopecrashers or interview its developer Byteparrot, stay frosty and email PR Executive David at david@neonhive.co.uk.
