A very promising stunt snowboarder is coming to the Xbox Live Indie Games service soon in the form of Pixel Boarder. It's a dual-stick affair, with the left analog stick controlling the boarder's right hand side and the right stick extending and contracting his left.

Features you can expect include a full replay system with the ability to speed up and slow down every pixelated, bone-crunching wipeout; Graphics which can be set to 32, 16, 8 or 4 bit mode; And a 'huge selection of heads and bodies' for creating your very own snowboarding maniac. Throw in a selection of chiptune tracks from a variety of musicians at 8-Bit Collective and you're onto a winner!

it lokks like skifree to me

Reminds me of Ski Stunt Simulator. They even have the jetpack :D

On the other hand I can guarantee that this will be fun.

Snipergen: i was just about to say that. And that alone is a good enough reason for anyone to buy the game.

ski stunt simulator is such a good game, sould never have been abandoned (or finished?)
i want more

Looks fun!
I wonder if the music will be as amazing as that.

It's pixeled...

Sorry but they could have done customizable player/border...

Lame...


PS : don't take it wrong, i LOVE pixels, i'm only saying that since they use this kind of graphics, they could have done a totally customizable thing, which would really make a point to those pixels.

The game is now available on Xbox Live Marketplace, under Indie Games!

I love the game, great to pass time but I'm finding alot of lag and menu screw ups. Like certain menus wont load or it'll keep me at a blue screen for a while. Doing a big jump and then getting lagged so much i fail the lading..sucks but when it works its a sick game
