Tuschpiste

A ski game drawn with pen and ink.

Endlessly downhill from the summit: Tuschpiste turns a never-ending mountain into a living comic drawing in black, white and grey. Every slope is drawn with hatching, and every turn leaves its track in the snow.

What to expect

  • The Endless Mountain: an endless descent, every run on a new mountain built from its own mountain code
  • Carving, drifting, jumping and landing with custom ride physics
  • Collect crystals – you keep them across all your runs
  • An avalanche on your heels: fall or hesitate and it catches up
  • Interrupted runs can be resumed later
  • In progress: a shop, missions, a mountain map and more landscapes are on the way

Controls

  • Computer: arrow keys or WASD, or a gamepad
  • Phone and tablet: thumb zones and swipes
  • Portrait and landscape

How it is built

The graphics are drawn in real time: a custom ink renderer on WebGL draws outlines, hatching and stippling. The ride physics run at 60 fixed steps per second, and the same mountain code always produces the same mountain. The website itself loads not a single byte of game code – only clicking “Play now” opens the game.
