Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders News

The creators of my favourite extreme downhill biking game, Descenders, went on to make an extreme snowboarding game, and now the creators of my second favourite extreme downhill biking game, Lonely Mountain: Downhill, have made an extreme skiing game. I'm not going to pretend to be surprised by this: all of these sports are good because they're fast and dangerous, especially at sharp gradients...

Hello Riders,

After only 4 hours we got our first hotfix live. It adds support for Steam Timeline for Game Recording (see screenshot below) and addresses the following two issues:

• Reduce the frequent short freezes / lag spikes that appeared especially in the beginning of multiplayer matches
  
• Very rare crash / softlock on the loading screens
  

Additionally the version number is DECREASING... the previous version should have been 1.0.0, but we messed up and set it to 1.0.2. before - not its correctly set to 1.0.1 - however besides some confusion we hope there is no harm done. ;)

Have fun exploring the mountains and remember to leave a review - that helps us tremendously!

Hello Riders,

After four years of hard work Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders is finally out today for Steam and Xbox! Thank you to everyone who showed us your support on this journey!

The base price for the game is 24.99€/$24.99 and it comes with a 1-Week 10% Launch Discount for you.

If you like the game, please leave us a review. It would mean the world to us and it really makes a difference for the Steam recommendation algorithm. If you experience any bugs, have feedback or any other questions please let us know on the Steam Forums or even better in our Discord.

One important note. A lot of people wished for a better way to speedrun the game and while we have been working on a “Hot Start” feature, unfortunately, it didn’t make it in time for release. We hope we are able to release it soon but of course, we will first take care of all high-prio bugs that come in.

We really hope you all enjoy our snowy Lonely Mountains and see you on the slopes!
Your Megagons

Lonely Mountain: Snow Riders was one of the best demos I played last year, because it felt so good to gracefully slide down its white-powdered mountains (and clumsily crash into a tree). It might have been one of the best games I played last year, who knows, but it was delayed into 2025. Now it's got a fixed release date again: January 21st.

[h2]Hey Riders! [/h2]

It’s finally time to buckle your boots. Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders, our ‘ski-quel’ to Lonely Mountains: Downhill, is coming to Steam and Xbox on January 21st!

The game will feature 2-8 person crossplatform multiplayer with a competitive racing mode, as well as a cooperative team mode that’s perfect for hanging around with your friends on cold winter nights. Of course, it’s also fully playable in singleplayer, with lots of challenges and extensive leaderboards. If you’re just looking for some relaxed carving, the game also has a new ‘zen’ mode that lets you free-roam the mountains and place your own checkpoints.

If you want to do some ski gymnastics and hone your skills before release, the Singleplayer demo is still online. And of course we would be super grateful if you could wishlist the game so we can climb the upcoming list on Steam!

Thank you all for your patience and support! We’re all super excited to hit the slopes with all of you next week!
