Arctric Slopes

A two-week physics runner: a penguin, generated slopes, and enough speed to take off.

Solo developer · 2 weeks, September 2025 · itch.io

A casual runner where momentum and tricks carry a penguin across procedural slopes toward flight.

Built in two weeks as a proving ground for a path tool that turns a line of nodes into a slope you can actually ride.

The slope

The mountain is generated as you go — each run is a new line.

The world

Backgrounds and props keep up when the camera is flying.

The feel

Tricks and airtime are the point, not a side effect.

  • A penguin, a slope, and enough speed to take off.

How it was built

  • Unity (C#). Slopes generated by BMG Tools’ Dynamic Path: nodes become a remeshed curve, then a renderable slope.
  • Trick scoring that rewards precision and risk.
  • Event system, parallax layers, and object pooling for high-speed generation.
