Description another race. it's quite simple, but i think it's really fun. i hope you all enjoy playing it as much as i enjoyed making it.

Carved out of stone, lines of some odd mathematical function await a cunning adventurer to travel upon them and follow their curves on a trajectory intended for gold. The grounds keeper is now just a shadow of her former self, harassing you with laser vision as you try your hardest to do something beyond collecting gold. These days the only thing you can do any more is graph your own parabolic flight. — origami_alligator

I saw this before.

Completely deserving of the feature. I love swooping through the gold; it was very satisfying to get. Yeah, I wanted to feature this too.

Stylish gold.

:D 4.

sub 400 may very likely be possible, but whateverrrr, nice race
Demo Data

congrats!

I knew

that this would get featured. real innovative one.

One of the most

visually pleasing races I've seen in awhile. I'm not usually a fan of them, but this takes the cake. 4.5/5

hey

did you know yahoozy faved this? he did

really cool

the 'x's were a great idea.

kk...

for a name...feeble and strong... i have no idea where that came from but...actually try and use something else... just submit whenever u want :D
i'll just sit, wait, and let you do all the hard work :P
about collab...

Sloppy AGD

Very fun, those sweeping curves work very well. The way you have a long calm free fall and then an explosive series of jumps just feels fantastic.
Demo Data

awesome stuff

do agree with yungerkid aswell...but loving the originality.
4.5 down
but the execution could have been better, i felt. i would have preferred more of an expansion on the airy feel of the downward curves. but still quite nice.

whee

like the archs

thanks pawz :D

glad i haven't refined my style so much that you don't like it :D
