In an interview with MobileSyrup, Ryan Cash, the co-founder and CEO of Snowman and Harry Nesbitt, the lead artist/developer of Alto’s Adventure and the founder of Land & Sea, explained that The Spirit of the Mountain is an opportunity to expand on the core concept of the original game in a unique way.
The remaster features a new character both Cash and Nesbitt were reluctant to reveal much about, but hint that it adds interesting new features to the snow-filled endless runner’s core formula. The new character will also have new goals attached to it and the pair mention that discovering it is part of the “enjoyment” tied to the remaster.
Other additional features include an original composition tied to the extra character. Players only interested in checking out the new content can transfer their saved file from Alto’s Adventure to The Spirit of the Mountain.
A few months ago Snowman and Land & Sea released Alto’s Odyssey: The Lost City, a new version of the original Odyssey that features a new biome, goals and additional mechanics.
