Hey Everyone,
While we still keep working on Snow Scout in the background, we do not have to share anything new for this year's Steam Winter Sale. Honestly speaking, the game has generated very little revenue, so we had to prioritize other projects, like our 2D retro platforming game "Die Känguru-Verschwörung", which is a movie tie-in of the German comedy hit of the same name. It will be released on December 26th, so if you speak German, you could have a look and support us with a purchase if you feel like it. Any money that we make with our games pushes the company forward and will ensure continued development in Snow Scout as well.
If you don't own Snow Scout yet, it's also worth a look, as the game is currently offered at its highest discount so far. With it's skiing gameplay, the game is perfectly suited for the current season. But judging from the sometimes quite harsh negative feedback we have received from some people, let us remind you that Snow Scout is a game that is best played standing and it's supposed to be somewhat physically demanding. It was designed to be a mini-workout that you don't even notice when playing. The cross-country skiing controls may take some getting used to, but once you have them down, you'll notice that they are more about controlled, effective motions that are not as taxing as you may think at first - instead, they are really good for your body. But if you know that this is something you definitely won't enjoy, you probably should not buy the game.
At any case, negative reviews for the game have to be attributed to personal taste or even wrongly calibrated VR play spaces. If you'd like a professional opinion, have a look at the review from ImpulseGamer, which we posted in the description. They gave the game a 4.0 out of five. Also, the video reviews by Doc Oculus and FastLawyer are recommended.
But wether you will try the game or not - let us extend our best wishes to you and your loved ones. Have some great Holidays and enjoy some game time, wether it will be in VR or 2D!
All the best from
The Tunermaxx Team
