Great game
Sat May 15 2010 elkheartAdmittedly there are some changes that could be made to improve this game, but all in all it's pretty good. The accelerometer controls are much more user-friendly than other iPad apps, which really add to overall gameplay. Get. This. App.
Finally a great snowboarding game!
Sat Jan 02 2010 4Jesus7I have tried a number of snowboarding games that had horrible problems including crazy snowboard (repetitive tracks), adrenaline snowboarding (not enough content), and shaun white snowboarding (lag and crash issues along with a lack of content) and big mountain finally does it correctly. Smooth gameplay, plenty of tracks (that look different enough considering they're all snow),and tight controls. Graphics are good, but the gameplay makes up for it. You can tilt the screen to wherever you are most comfortable and play your own music so the user can have their own unique experience. Personally, I would like the option to tap/flick the screen to jump rather than flick my device, but the current option works well enough. I would also like to see either a character customization option or additional characters added in a future update. All in all, for such a low price, any extreme sports fan should pick this up.
Fun and Exciting
Fri Aug 06 2010 Della SugarI am neither young nor much of a game player, but this is intuitive. You can enjoy it the first time you try it and from there it is a bit like riding a bicycle, you will get better and better at it, hardly knowing exactly how you are acquiring these skills and while enjoying the jumps and downhill runs.....as if it were real.
I do recommend playing your own favorite music on your iPad or iPod, it will play right through this game automatically once you turn it on.....this game is a joy to play with Beethoven or Mozart, but suit yourself
Excellent value!
Tue Jun 15 2010 kk100The price alone gives it a great entertainment value! I've updated this rating as the app is a lot smoother now. Yes, the graphics are rough, but the physics are excellent and the control is very good.
If it had smoother (anti-aliased, higher resolution) graphics then it would cost $5+.
If you want a good snowboarding app which challenges you and costs a buck more than nothing then pick it up.
How stupid are these developers?
Wed Oct 06 2010 CasualGamer6666These guys just put out an update simply saying that the app no longer works on 3G phones without any explanation of a fix with this update. I have a 3G phone and checked to see if the app is still working before downloading the update and it was still working. I went back to the update and downloaded it and then the app stopes working. In short, these developers made an update specifically for it to stop working on 3G phones. What complete idiots!
Alpha release
Sun Jan 10 2010 Jeff MajorThis game is nowhere near finished. The controls are buggy (random jumps and spinning) the camera is awful, there are no achievements, rewards, story/career, no anything.
I honestly wouldn't mind, but these devs seem to have forgotten this game, haven't offered update news or responded to comments or concerns posted for almost two weeks.
Poof, they are gone, put up 1/4th of a game in the app store for $2 and dissapeared. Should ne criminal DO NOT BUY.
Great fun!
Sun Dec 20 2009 Empathy37The physics engine in this game is great. The controls are also very intuitive, and at only $2, the price is right. This game is just good fun. Great job from Golden Hammer... I look forward to their next game!
I love this app!
Sat Jan 07 2012 your next boyfriendGlitches up sometimes when im next to a mountain but its really fun and i recommend for you to buy it :)
