E3: Alto's Odyssey Looks Great On Sand

Alto's Odyssey is set for release sometime this year, and it looks like we're trading in the snowy peaks of Alto's Adventure for sandy ones in Odyssey.  There was a Youtube interview from E3 that Kotaku wrote about:

"Eli Cymet, lead producer for development team Built By Snowman, talked with Gameslice host Geoff Keighley about Alto’s Odyssey yesterday at E3, showing off some of the game’s new moves. Wall rides and dynamic obstacles add some upward motion to the downhill boarding game without adding any control complexity—it’s still a simple one-finger game."

Snowman's Five-Year Anniversary

Snowman's five year anniversary was celebrated last month, and they've re-released their first game, Circles Memory Game, to celebrate.  Version 1.5 has better performance, and some bugs have been fixed.

At its core, Circles is a digital take on a favourite physical toy from our childhood. It’s a memory challenge that asks you to pay attention to the glow of multicoloured rings, and repeat them in order with taps of your own.

For us, it’s more than that though. It’s an exploration of what can be done when physical play is unconstrained, and it represents the beginning of the aesthetic that’s guided all our projects.

As part of the update, we’ve spruced up performance, fixed a few lingering bugs, and optimized the game for all of Apple’s newest devices. We’ve also added Taptic Engine support. While it may sound like a subtle change, it’s been a total joy to feel as if we’re really pressing a button each time we tap out a solution.

Their game Alto's Adventure (on the App Store and Google Play) is also on sale until the end of the day.

20-Hundred Terracades into the future, fragments of mankind settled in the distant star cluster of Terzan-7. When the rogue star, Krishna XI-32, unexpectedly went hypernova, the resulting Gamma radiation blast obliterated life on all planetary colonies in the cluster.

With the Nega-Gate destroyed in the initial blast, only those in super luminous ships were able to escape the star's fury. Limited by their meager interstellar range, the survivors of Terzan-7 were unable to return to their home galaxy.

With the radiation dissipating after the Hypernova over the course 100 earth years, the survivors began their pilgrimage into the hell-bathed systems. Inheriting the shattered remnants of a thousand worlds irradiated in a stellar inferno, four factions have arisen to rebuild the desolate systems in their own image....
