Perfectly reminiscent of Gameboy era sports games while effectively using the crank.
Chuhai Labs takes their winning formula from Whitewater Wipeout and makes it into something deeper.
Both games require a bit of effort to get into the nuance, but as a Playdate owner, I feel this is exactly the best use of my time with the console.

Much like Whitewater Wipeout before it, this isn't really a game for me. It feels like it will take too much practice (and a lot of trial and error) until I can pull off tricks that feel satisfying. That said, so far I like it more than WW if that counts for anything. The graphics are outstanding and the sound design is superb. In general the snowboarding environment is much more fleshed out compared to the simple wave of WW. From a difficulty perspective, the game is easier to get into because you can't actually "wipeout"; crashes just reset you to the slope and the run ends when you make it to the bottom. That mechanic alone may be enough for some people who bounced off WW to enjoy Carve Jr. more. For me, the game demands more time than I'm willing to put in but I might occasionally revisit it and try again.
