Snownuts drops you into a sports challenge you can start in a couple of seconds. Think 2 player and racing — that is the shape of it. Everything runs client-side, so it starts fast even on a modest connection.
About Snownuts
Snownuts is a wintergame where you get to descent from a snow covered mountain in the innertube, an inflatable donut and make your way to the finish. You can do the obstacle track, race against the cpu and even go head to head with another player in the 2 player mode!
How to play Snownuts
Nothing here needs explaining twice. You will want a keyboard for this one — the arrow keys / WASD carry most of it, and the table below has the rest. It fills the player in landscape, so use the fullscreen button on desktop and turn your phone sideways on mobile. If a round goes badly, restart — attempts are cheap and it is usually the fastest way to improve.
Controls
| Input | Action |
|---|---|
| Arrow keys / WASD | Steer, accelerate and brake |
| Spacebar | Handbrake or nitro boost |
| R | Reset the car after a crash |
On mobile: Tap and swipe on screen. Turn your phone sideways — this game is designed for landscape and fills a horizontal screen.
