Ok I’ve got a nice update to Pretty Sketchy Bro ready for some play-time! I’ve been kinda all over the place with this update. I added Shred Royale mode, so you can do a snowboarding battle-royale against 9 CPU riders. After the first minute, and every 30 seconds after that, the rider with the least points gets eliminated. I also made a ton of tweaks to the physics with regard to riding speed, turning, landing on hips… Oh and I finally fixed the camera rotation z-axis to 0 so now the camera is always upright like it should be! The game plays and looks so much nicer with that change. I added a snow-trail to snowballs, which looks awesome in motion, but check out the screenshot below:
That’s right, 694 frames per second. I worked on optimization again for this version. This is almost 700 FPS with 4 CPU riders on my Windows PC. With just the player it is 900 FPS. With 64 CPU riders it is like 145 FPS. Lotta fun to be had there 😉 I also fixed snowballs for online gameplay. When connected online, you can only throw 1 snowball at a time, not spam them like the screenshot. But the other online players will actually see them now and even get knocked over by them. The next big thing I want for this version is to get Shred Royale mode working online. This would require lobby, warmup, some player to be host possibly to control the game rounds, and much more, so it might be a while.
Well, what are you still doing here? Get over to Play-PSB and play the game!
