Nice job, but that polka‑esque music makes me want to feed myself to the yeti as quickly as possible. :)
You might consider a mechanic where moving your character in a sinusoidal pattern works like building up blue sparks in Mario Kart rewarding the player with a temporary speed boost.
Another SkiFree homage that was posted a while back on HN that has a nice pixel art aesthetic:
The game is great. Could you make your own character more noticeable, or add some special effects or markers? It becomes hard to tell which one is yours when there are more characters on the screen.
Brings back good memories of hours playing with friends on one of my first computers. Thanks for that!

Haha fair enough, I have had that music in my head for days since making this game
Ah it's always interesting to see what other people come up with, thanks for sharing!
I thought the music was perfect fwiw
Oh actually that does help actually, thank you :) I kind of think of this game as a comedy and was trying to fit that theme

Ah, actually that's a good point, yes I will add a marker or something. Thanks for playing!
I guess this can be a fun little mobile game
