Nice. I expect SkiFree to finally get a modder community after you complete this version. :-)

Unfortunately, the player's movement seems to come to a halt every 14-15 m or so in Firefox 18.0.2 on Linux x86_64. That is not the case in Chromium 24.0.1312.56 on the same platform.

Edit: there are also visible lines over and under the tall fir trees in Firefox: http://imgur.com/3wnXSqs.

amazing finally! you could do tricks though in the original one maybe an addition to patch on the following release ?

The controls are wrong, too. Left and right should rotate the character, but right now they make him turn hard left and hard right. In the original there were also two degrees of left and right turning, so you could navigate with more precision. You could also turn fully horizontal and then use the up arrow to climb the hill sideways.

Please fix this! :-)
