Description
The next ice age has arrived and the world as we know it has peacefully frozen in time, but to one naked survivor it's cold and lonely as hell!
How to Play
WASD or Arrow keys.
(Influence your altitude over thermals with up and down keys)
Ride over the icy terrain collecting bubbles while avoiding various hazzards. The push bike can only advance, you can not back pedal so remembering the best route is part of the challenge.

Silly me, I should have known that stabby sharp thing X would kill me but stabby sharp thing Y is completely safe.

I've always had a problem with a certain feature of game design that shows up in a lot of games: Obstacles that can ONLY be circumvented after you have run into them at least once. No split second timing will save you, you have to know it's there. And the only way to know it's there is if you lost against it at least once already. Very annoying. Otherwise, it's got nice artwork and sounds. Plays fairly smoothly. Has an intriguing, funny, cartoony background. 4/5

if you play multiple times he gets clothing. 1. scarf 2. shirt 3. underwear 4. sweater 5. traffic cone. but no pants? the one thing he really needs and he gets a traffic cone to wear on his head instead of pants. tho i must admit the traffic cone does look pretty funny. The problem with the clothing it mysteriously disappears when he hits into the ice, so he gets wonderfully cold when he hits the snow. XD
