Heavy Shreddin' is a snowboarding game that was released in Europe and North America.
+ Great core concept and there's a real accomplishment when you get into a flow and successfully conquer a tough slope.
+ Excellent full-screen artwork when you complete a stage, and the music has a hard-edge sound that suits the action.
- Spotty collision detection irritates and it's tough to judge spatial distance between hazards due to the angled camera.
- Controls always feel imprecise and attempting to deftly manoeuvre between slalom gates is an exercise in frustration.
- Half Pipe events are comically bad, as your rider needs to stop at its apex before you can perform mid-air tricks!
- Course design suffers from repetition, and the graphics are poor with primitive sprites and crude animation.
