After the Mountain: The Snow Games, Runners, Platformers and Puzzles on snowrider3d.org
Published · 1 min read
The snow shelf
Snow Rider 3D is the reason the site exists, so the first shelf keeps the theme: Snow Yeet is a ski dash with jumps, flips and rocks to smash; Snow Plow is a quieter game about clearing a snowed-in street with a plough truck; Snow Tale is a side-scrolling winter platformer in the old style.
The runners
Rhino Rush Stampede is a lane runner with a sense of humour; Dinosaur Game is the Chrome T-rex with nothing added; Dino Run is the pixel-art escape from the meteor; Tunnel Rush and Slope Tunnel are the speed-and-reflex tubes. Running Fred is the brutal one, a castle of spike traps that you will not survive on the first go, and Neon Challenge Legends is a one-button arrow runner in a glowing box.
The gravity games
G-Switch and G-Switch 2 use one key: flip gravity, run along the ceiling, flip back. They are the fastest games on the site and the best ones for two people on one keyboard, since G-Switch 2 lets several players share it.
The platformers
OvO 2 and OvO Dimensions are precision platformers built on momentum — slides, wall-jumps, dives — with an instant restart. Level Devil is about trust, because its levels lie to you. Tag and Tag 2 are the local-multiplayer chase games, and Up Together is the multiplayer obby where everyone is climbing the same tower.
Skill and puzzle
Drift Boss is one button and a narrow road; Perfect Shape asks you to pick the pose that fits the wall; Bloxorz is the block-tipping logic classic; and Under the Red Sky is a short first-person walk for when you want something slower.
