Alto’s Odyssey for iPhones, iPads arrives a day early

Alto’s Odyssey, the sequel to Alto’s Adventure, has arrived a day early. The $4.99 endless runner game for the iPhone and iPad was supposed to be available tomorrow. Here’s how the game is described: 

Alto’s Odyssey is an endless sandboarding journey set against a gorgeous and ever-changing desert landscape. As a followup to the critically acclaimed endless snowboarder Alto’s Adventure, Alto’s Odyssey is designed to be enjoyed by returning players and newcomers alike as a standalone experience all its own. 

The game features Alto series hallmarks like fluid physics-based movement, procedurally generated terrain, and dynamic lighting and weather effects. This time around, players will soar above windswept dunes, traverse thrilling canyons, and explore long-hidden temple cities in a fantastical place far from Alto’s home village. Along the way, you’ll grind across vines, bounce atop hot air balloons, ride towering rock walls, and escape mischievous lemurs – all while uncovering the desert’s many mysteries.”
