Stargate Atlantis meets Line Rider – Go Rodney!

I'm a big fan of sci-fi, and lately Stargate Atlantis has been holding my interest. So when I stumbled upon a YouTube contest for best Stargate Atlantis fan video, a light bulb went off in my head: Line Rider + YouTube = Magic!

I present to you Go Rodney!, a Stargate Atlantis themed Line Rider track, set to the SGA theme song:

Just like in my previous tracks, I've tried to maintain the principle that all solid lines are part of the scenery. I drew the track in function of the theme song, with much planning ahead, and tried to synchronize the tricks as much as possible. I've also tried to maintain better perspective throughout.

A higher quality version can be found on Rapidshare (DivX + MP3, 17MB, and no contest ad). I've also uploaded a view of the entire track (with line types indicated). There are 5945 separate lines.

Digg this video.

Line Rider - Urban Run

I had some fun today with the new Line Rider game and created a nifty track.

I wanted to do better than my last track and do the whole thing in 3D perspective. I think it came out great :).

The music was suggested by Adrian. It's from the Katamari Damacy soundtrack.

A high quality version (DivX) is on RapidShare. By popular request, I also have a snapshot of the whole track (and Jagged Peak as well).

Digg this story (Digg Video).

On a lighter note

Update: posted a new track.

My friend Boštjan Čadež is the genius behind the latest internet phenomenon Line Rider. I had some fun with a development version the last few days and made a rather wicked track. And yes, I do get some work done in between playing with Line Rider :P.
