Idea

Making a funny multiplayer snow race game that pops up a chance wheel for the player to spin and get different effects (maybe even alternating different wheels). Adding later on stuff like characters dismantling when crashing into obstacles, flashy VFX, and various styles to choose from.

The winning prize on the wheel was supposed to be a super epic jump after which the character uses the snowboard as a spinning propeller to fly to the finish line but I encountered unexpected issues even just to play the animation 🤷🏻

Current state

• Two styles to choose from (snowboard and ski) - only model and animations change for now
• Very basic prototype level (trees are randomly placed)
• Basic wheel, for now, permanent instead of a race-stopping pop-up
• Some effects (check legend below), with placeholders instead of flashy visuals

Note: You'll probably see I forgot to hide the bomb node in the ski mode but it should work fine anyway.

How to play

1. Just avoid the trees (the scene will reset if one is touched unless an effect prevents it). Activate the wheel if you want to, it will recharge.
2. You can use the three ramps to stop there or to jump higher if you use the turbo.
3. Consider you won the level if you get to the end and fall into infinity.

The buttons up left are for effect debugging, but you can try them if you want.

Controls

Keyboard / Controller (selection menu requires mouse)

• Spin the wheel: Alt /〇 (right button)
• Left/right: AD, ⇐ ⇒ / left joystick
• Turbo: Shift, W, ⇑ / ☐ (left button), left trigger
• Jump: Spacebar / ✕ (south button)

Effects

*Spinning propeller doesn't work correctly, so it's just permanent invulnerability for now.

Note: The shield works, but it if the character is still touching the tree it will "die" anyway because I haven't added its own posterior grace/invulnerability time or other filters yet so it's detecting the collision
