Alto's Adventure Course Arrives In Stickman Golf 3
/The gang over at Snowman is at it again, this time next year it's possible Alto's Adventure has taken over the world. You can download and play Alto's Ridge, a level based on Alto's Adventure in Stickman Golf 3.
"But then we decided to bring something familiar to the world of SSG3. After becoming close with the team at Snowman while helping out with the Alto’s Android release, we thought it would be really cool too bring their beautiful designs to the Super Stickman Golf world.
Not unlike the Super Meat Boy course from SSG2, “Alto’s Ridge” brings in the gorgeous design work the game is famous for, along with some unique new ways to explore the artwork from the game."
You can download the level in Stickman Golf 3, but it does require the premium version of the app, which you can download here. While you're at it, make sure to pick up Alto's Adventure as well!
