SkiFree is a Win3.1 game where you play as a downhill skier doing stunts, but eventually this guy spawns, chases you, and eats you.

First computer game I ever played. I didn't know about the speed button. The snowman's appearance meant sudden inevitable death. Morbid AF.

The map loops so he was there to get your before reaching start again. At the beginning instead of going down start going up instead.

Down made you go faster, but not fast enough to outrun it. F made you go fast enough do so

Hold shift to sprint

Or the f button maybe?

The down button. 5 year old me hadn't figured on holding it down. I just went left and right alot.

7 years ago | Likes 62 Dislikes 1

I tried down, but it didn't make me go fast enough to escape. The F button did though

Do they ever make front page, or do you only see them on FP when they have been reposted by some scumbag who doesn't credit you?

Nah my posts suck

Still doesn't explain why they aren't on the front page. Sounds like they'd fit in perfectly.
