Project Powder Overview and Features:
Project Powder is an online snowboard racing game that pits players around the world in competitive matches on the universe's most dangerous slopes. Taking place in 2146 AD on the distant, snow-covered planet of Delphinus, Project Powder offers you a snowboarder's paradise where you can race against your friends and pull off larger-than-life tricks in the low gravity atmosphere.
Choose one of Project Powder's four characters and race your way through the game's thirty-three courses, competing in free-for-all and team matches across three different game modes. As you beat opponents and establish your dominance, your character will level up and earn currency to buy new gear and snowboards. You can also take on difficult license tests using Project Powder's robust trick tree to customize your moveset and showoff new tricks with a flavor all your own.
Before racing you will be brought to a tutorial that teaches you the game basics, controls, and techniques. You can access this tutorial again anytime. There are three different modes of gameplay:
-Race: First to the finish wins. Do tricks to gain boost and use boost to speed up.
-Coin: Whoever collects the most coins wins. Different colors will award different amounts, but brown coins will make you lose coins. There are also special power-ups shaped like rabbit ears that do different things, for example, make your character act like a magnet, or change all silver coins into brown coins and all brown into silver coins.
-Battle: First to the finish wins. This is the same thing as Race mode except that there are different weapons you can get from ice cubes along the race and use against your opponents, like a missile, lightning, a wall to lay behind you, a shield to protect you, etc. Battle mode is somewhat similar to any of the Mario Kart series in the way weapons are picked up and used during the race.
Each mode can be played with teams (red vs blue) or single (everyone for themselves). There are three different zones, each separated by level: 1-5, 1-11, and Free, which has no level limit. In race mode, every map can be played in the Free zone but more complex maps for race mode are off limits in the 1-5 and the 1-11 zone.
