Adrenalin Misfits

Adrenalin Misfits is a downhill racing game designed for the Kinect peripheral in which anthropomorphic animal characters race "crossboards" - boards that can cross snow, water, and everything else. Game modes (for one or two-players via split screen) include: Trial: a practice mode that introduces the controls. It must be completed to unlock the other modes. Downhill Slalom: a slalom race in which the racers must pass between flags. Fly Distance: racers compete for the farthest jump. Trick Score: racers compete for the highest score by performing tricks. Balloon Buster: points are earned by popping balloons on the track. Free Race: a simple race - first one to the goal wins. Stadium Games: another competition for high score from tricks, but in a stadium featuring half-pipes and ramps. Moving through the game unlocks new courses, racers and boards. Players can also use their gamer profile avatar in-game. The controls are completely motion-based: players tilt their body to the side to turn, forward to accelerate and jump to jump. In mid-air, twisting the body launches tricks while stretching out the arms performs a glide. The courses also include power items (speed boosts, weapons, and special moves) that once picked up can be fired by stomping the foot.
