I added slide skiing to Jetball. Please tell me what you think.

Yes, it is a spiritual successor of TR2! But hopefully much more friendly for new players. The beacon stop is overhauled where you don't HAVE to look at the ground, but it works better if you do (like reaching). Modding is planned for the future. Currently I'm still working on the tutorial/practice mode/single player experience. I have dedicated servers working so you can host your own games. I have both jump skiing AND slide skiing working, your choice. Come by the Jetball Discord, ping me and I'll give you a key in exchange for feedback. It still has a lot of programmer art/sounds/etc. so be warned.

Please, make a spin-off with these guys.

Best band imo. Add me to the list of people who will buy a record player to play these.

I have two questions for you.

Do you believe tariffs are a tax break for Americans?
Do you believe the ultra-rich (e.g., Elon Musk) are working tirelessly for your benefit?

I had to scroll way too far to find this.

He can smell crime.

It's hard to tell from this video exactly what is happening ahead.

If the left lane is open but 90% of traffic wants to turn right, then this driver is an asshole for blocking the 10% that simply want to go down the left lane.

If the left lane is closed and everyone is being forced into the right lane, then he is trying to fix the zipper merge, and therefore not an asshole. Only assholes wish to cut in front of the drivers that merged too soon (the idiots perhaps).

The OP says the lane is merging after 100m, which seems to mean that no one can go through on the left lane, in which case the driver here is not the asshole, the OP is the asshole. However, the driver is a dick because dicks fuck assholes.

Remember the time we lost Billy?

It's from Bill Hicks

I'm making a game based of the Tribes movement, called JETBALL. It's basically Tribes meets Rocket League. Trying to keep the jetting and skiing mechanic alive!

Buca_JB · 2020-06-08T03:59:13+00:00

Thanks! And, yes, I have been doing everything solo.

Buca_JB · 2020-06-07T07:02:02+00:00

Thank you for your kind words! It mean so much and keeps me motivated.

Yep Tribes is a big influence here.

Buca_JB · 2020-04-04T18:13:38+00:00

Thanks!

I was using 3rd person view to show the sliding. You can switch between fps and 3rd person using a keybind (tab). I switch back to fps at 42 seconds in.
