Overview

Skiing is a 3 dimensional downhill skiing game. You have to navigate through sets of flags to the finish line as fast as you can. The position of the flags and hills is random, and you can generate new random courses from the main menu. You can also set the mode of play: simple or complex. In simple, moving the joystick forward speeds you up forward, pulling all the way back slows you to a stop, and left/right steers. Your maximum speed is not too high in this mode, so you can steer fairly easily, but wt will take you at least 1:10 to 1:30 to get to the finish line. In complex mode, hitting the joystick button is the equivalent of you giving yourself a thrust with your ski poles; now you can go MUCH faster, but your steering at high speeds is not very good. If you ram the button, you can make it to the finish line within 15 seconds. Unfortunately, if you go off course, or miss steering between flags, your score will not count.
