SNOW Now Available Via Steam Early Access

Players have the chance to freely explore the game's vast terrain while proving that they are the best by climbing the leaderboards. Read on.

From the Press Release
Poppermost Productions today announced the launch of SNOW, the first truly authentic winter sports game, on Steam Early Access. The 3-man team at Poppermost created SNOW to offer the most realistic skiing experience ever.


“With SNOW we wanted to provide players and winter sports enthusiasts with an authentic experience. Skiing is all about freedom, creativity and exploration, and SNOW delivers exactly that! We’ve removed all of the restrictions and clutter that we traditionally see in action sports games and with SNOW; allow players to approach the game the way they want”, said Alexander Bergendahl, CEO and Game Director at Poppermost Productions.

SNOW’s first mountain, Sialia, is a massive 8km2 of open-world, mountain terrain that has been entirely hand-crafted by the studio. Sialia is an ideal playground to explore and compete in thanks to its epic lines, massive cliffs and carefully designed terrain parks. Players can freely explore this vast and varied terrain or attempt to prove themselves by setting high scores on SNOW’s leaderboards.

Poppermost has collaborated closely with freeskiing icons Tanner Hall, Tom Wallisch, and Russ Henshaw to ensure that the authenticity of the sport was fully recreated in every aspect of the game.

"I am really excited to be part of building the first realistic ski game. From what I have seen already it's the only game built by skiers for skiers!" said Russ Henshaw, Gold Medalist at the 2012 Winter Dew Tour Slopestyle Competition.

SNOW also offers a deep character customization system where players can equip their rider’s eleven different body areas with over 140 products from real life brands. Poppermost has also partnered with over a dozen of the biggest brands in winter sports to offer players the most popular products available from the most recent season. The team will update the contents of the catalogue continuously.

SNOW is powered by CryENGINE, which is known for its high production values and breathtaking graphics. “CryENGINE was a natural choice for us. We wanted to deliver a game with stunning visuals that would support our vision of an open-world. Crytek’s game technology is extremely powerful and really helps us create the world of our dreams”, said Alexander Bergendahl.

Buffet Bliss or Southern Swing-and-a-Miss? A Bite at Kacey’s in Huntsville

  Walk through the doors of Kacey’s Country Cooking in Huntsville and you’re greeted by the comforting smell of fried chicken, collard greens, and cornbread that could double as perfume for any true Southerner. This is where the buffet line reigns supreme, the sweet tea flows endlessly, and dessert is always just an arm’s reach away. For many locals, Kacey’s is a comfort food paradise. Fans brag about the fried green tomatoes, juicy pork chops, slow-cooked beef tips, and banana pudding that deserves its own holiday. The staff are another highlight—quick with refills, friendly enough to feel like family, and the kind of people who can make a buffet feel like Sunday dinner at grandma’s. But Kacey’s has its critics too. Some diners rave about “the best bang for your buck in town,” while others complain that the food sometimes veers into “straight-from-the-can” territory. Like most buffets, it’s a roll of the dice: hit the line on a good day and you’ll be full and happy; catch it on an...
