Ski Safari

An endless snow runner with a single input and a wall of snow behind you. Holding the button leans back for a flip and releasing lands you — and because a clean landing preserves speed while a bad one loses it, the entire game is a rhythm of jumps timed to the shape of the slope. The animals are what make it memorable. Catching up to one lets you ride it, and each handles differently: some jump higher, some ski faster, some are simply harder to stay on. That turns the chase into a sequence of opportunities — leaving a faster animal for one that suits the terrain ahead is a real decision, and the best runs string several together. The avalanche is a constant presence rather than an occasional threat, which means slowing down is never an option and every mistake is immediately expensive. Runs last a minute or two and restarting is one press. The art is warm and the single control makes it playable by anyone. It runs on very modest hardware and plays identically on a phone and a keyboard.
