Olympic Skijumper is an easy to play, hard to master party game, modified from Shaun Southern's Olympic Skier. Your score is combined from three ski jumps, with a maximum of 200 points per jump. Too short of a jump will give you no points, crashing on landing will deduct either 25% or 50% of the jump's points, depending on severity. Whereas jumping and its controls are very easy, it is hard to get all three jumps just right. Good luck and have fun, and remember to stay well hydrated! ;)

Changes, Fixes and New Features
-------------------------------
- New: Toggle music on and off by
  pressing M in main menu.
- Max score is now 600 (3x200) instead
  of 1000. Scale of ratings has been
  changed accordingly.
- Digit '9' had a misaligned pixel.
  Fixed. :)
- New highscores that match the ones
  already on the highscore list are now
  entered below the old scores, not
  above.
- Mandatory wait time on the assessment
  screen has been reduced to speed up
  repeated gameplay. Now you can go back
  to main menu (or highscore name
  entering screen) by pressing Fire
  after a second.
- Obviously all the texts have been
  changed to reflect that this is now a
  ski jumping game only.
