What's next up for the game
Hey guys, After the big update in around December we stayed silent for a bit, but worry not we have not abandoned the game. We have been collating player feedback(a lot) and reflecting on what can bring the next level of enjoyment for the game. It seems from the feedback that peo

Hello Sledders!
Its been quite a while since our last update, but now we have an update and it is the biggest one we've had ever.
Heres some dev notes of it:

Split tasks into beginner and advanced categories to balance gameplay
New control added, swipe arms to speed up, and don't swipe for it to slow down due to friction(so basically acceleration and breaking)
Fixed and better physics, no more strange bouncing on steep surfaces
Sensitive jump, harder you pull the more you jump(with a cap)
Many more tasks, now over 30
Three brand new levels, Ski Resort 2 and Ice Caves 2, and Beginners Slope
Temporarily removed Snow Sports for maintanence
New interactive tutorial added
Better save system, replaced PlayerPrefs
Settings option added
Revamped main menu lighting for optimisation
Better GUI overall, far more readable now
Revamped all the tasks to make sure they are all possible
More easter eggs in main menu :)
Camera now slowly follows sled rotation above a certain speed
Lots of bug fixes and optimisation etc
Made CameraRig face the correct orientation now
This update did take a while, hope you guys enjoy it!
Heres a trailer for it:
Thanks for playing,

Hey everyone! We've been silent for a while, and that is because we have been busy with things. Some of those things regard what was mentioned on our to-do list in our last announcement such as levels and the arcade mode, but we have also been focusing on other things. We would l

Hello totally realistic sledders!
A few weeks ago we released a major replayability update for the game. So what are we doing next?
A lot more.
Here is a rough plan of what we're going for:

A few more levels, confirmed at the moment are Snow Forest 2 and Japanese Ski Resort
An arcade mode of some sort, where you're racing down at a high speed down a infinite and procedually generated hill. You'll be chased by something, probably a yeti. You probably know where we got that reference from :P
Level and task difficulty rebalancing
More tasks, with more difficulty variations so if you're not great at the game at first, you can still complete some, and not ragequit
More weird shop items
Other refinements, such as better GUI and tutorial etc
We'll aiming for full release this year, but regardless of whether we succeed that or not, we will have a much better game at the end of the year.
The update release times won't be consistent, because it kind of depends on how heavy exam work is. But we will always be updating the game, and expect screenshots in the next few weeks.
Thanks for reading and playing our game, until next time ːsteamhappyː

Hey guys!
Its been a long hiatus in communication, but we have been hard at development and will soon be ready to release a new update.
Heres a bit of what we've been working on:

Corrected the world scaling on the snow forest so that everything feels much faster and in proportion. We've also made it slightly steeper. It truly feels like sledding down a hill now.
Remade the whole snow sports level to have a better flow.
The new Ice Caves level.
Completely revamped the menu screen.
Shop and mission system for replayability.
This update has all been about making the game as replayable as possible. Hopefully new the ice caves level, which has like so many different paths even I can't keep track of, and the shop/mission system will achieve that. The shop system is planned to sell quirky sleds and gloves.
We've also included a few sneak peak shots of the new level. Enjoy.
Expect to see gifs and videos of the new update soon, as we get closer to releasing the update. Make sure to keep track of our social media on Youtube and Discord.
Planned release date? Around 26th of June.
A big thanks to you guys for being so patient, and see you in the next dev blog! Will definitely do posts more frequently lol.

Hello players of Totally Realistic Sledding VR!
The game is in Early Access, and we're really motivated to getting it out of it. We have lots of updates planned for 2018.
However, due to unfortunate circumstances, we don't actually possess a HTC Vive at the moment, and the next time we can use one is sometime in February. Therefore we will not be able to release major updates that require a HMD to test, such as new levels.
We are going to try our best to release some minor updates before February, but they won't be as visually appealing as the ones planned next year. Just bug fixes, better structured code etc.
Whats being planned next year 2018 February and beyond
We're well aware that there is not enough content in the game yet. We're going to be doing as much as we can to add replayability to it and turn it into a game worth hours.
Heres a couple of the highlights(but probably not all):

Expanded lodge(for those who love burning stuff and exploring!)
Shop and coin system! Buy new gloves, and different sleds. Farm the levels for coins. You'll most likely be able to sled with a snow mobile. Finally.
At least 2 new levels, a long Japanese themed track, and another one with heaps of jumps called 'Precipice'.
A grade system for each level. No, simply getting to the end of the track does not constitute 'finishing the level' as some people say.
Achievements. Oh, how many times we wished we added an achievement for burning everything in the house to reward those vigilant Youtubers.
Rare supernatural happenings within the game. Yeti. Does that ring a bell?
Hype???

The new level has just been released! Try it out!
The snow forest has arrived. Its still in Beta, and of course, its free. We will never make new levels paid DLC's. Also bug fixes, your time and best time now display properly at the end of the level. Menu screen looks a bit better as well.
