EDIT: Ver 1.5 is up. I've tweaked the running and braking a little. Movement should be more fluid now. I've also enlarged the offscreen window, so NPC popup should be nonexistant now. Enjoy and keep up with the feedback!

Sorry for the outline thing. It won't appear again.

Pretty nice game, but found a couple of glitches:

- Sometimes when jump-gliding at the superfices makes you "go through" the floor/dirt, making yourself go stuck, only way to fix is is to go all the way down and go through a hole.

- You can actually levitate if you glide at the waterfall slopes, carefully glide at one and you start sliding upwards, making it repeat the glide animation and start going up, as soon you don't touch anything you'll keep going up, not really helpful, but it's pretty cool to see.

Overall, it got me entertained for 40 minutes or so, but damn, i can't find the really hidden chest, any hints for it?

Great game, although there are a couple glitches. First one: the ram screech. Secondly, if you are gliding towards water that's running down a hill, and continue holding your course when you collide, you can reach the end of the hill and keep gliding upwards until you hit something.
