Historical Accuracy
I used the Fram Museum story of the first crossing of Greenland (1888-1889): https://frammuseum.no/polar-history/expeditions/polar-history-expeditions-across-the-greenland-ice-1888-1889/

Thematic Relevance
Fridtjof Nansen was one of the pioneers in arctic exploration using high tech equipment to cross Greenland. The 260-mile crossing took just over 11 weeks.

Disclaimers
I used these assets by Kenney: https://kenney-assets.itch.io/tiny-ski. I also based my code on an example by Emanuele Feronato: https://emanueleferonato.com/2019/04/15/radical-html5-game-prototype-built-with-phaser-and-arcade-physics-updated-to-phaser-3-featuring-arcade-groups-and-object-pooling/

Fun little game - I struggled a little controlling the skiier but managed a high score of 1495 nonetheless :)

Developer

Well done! Thanks for trying out my game. I think it works best on a touch device.
