Atomic Owl News

Hey all!

This is more or less the culmination of months of finding bugs for the console version, fixing them, and then bringing those changes to Steam.

Thank you for your support on Atomic Owl.

[h2]Eyes to the skies, Bladewings![/h2][p]
It’s time to gaze out far from Judanest and set our eyes on some… snowy peaks. [/p][p]Monster Theater has teamed up with developer Evil Evil to publish Skijoring in 2026! [/p][p]One friend drives the snowmobile, while the other is the skier they’re pulling along. What could possibly go wrong? [/p][p][/p][p]Skijoring is all about wipeouts, wackiness, and weird plays. Jump into a pit of fire. Punt an exploding reindeer. Launch your friend into a tree at 200 kph – the insane list goes on![/p]

• [p]Execute stylish moves to impress the crowd. Flip and grind as the Skier, drift and boost as the Snowmobiler, and gain big air to top the scoreboard.[/p]
• [p]Nail tricks to get RAD for even crazier boosts. Challenge BLACK DIAMOND MODE, where STYLE IS SURVIVAL.[/p]
• [p]Run 5 radical peaks as a team in split-screen or remote play.[/p]
• [p]Discover shortcuts, dodge obstacles, and save each other from deadly falls.[/p]
• [p]Outrun giant boulders, lethal avalanches, and the paparazzi as a team.[/p]
