I swear when I was like 7 and playing this, I managed to beat the snow monster by skiing off a ramp right when the monster appeared, so that I was in the air when he tried to gobble me, which -- to my utter astonishment -- seemed to kill them.<p>Maybe it was just a dream or something, because to my knowledge no one has ever claimed to be able to get past the skifree snow monster. I expected it to pop up over the years at least once. But after almost three decades, it seems increasingly likely that I just have this weird random childhood memory that did not happen, instead of being the one child in the whole world to actually slip by the snow monster (and mention how).<p>I assume that if it was even possible to kill the snow monster, someone would've disassembled the code by now and figured it out. But I can't help but wonder.
