In Giant Slalom, your mission is to efficiently weave through the 8 randomly-placed Slalom Gates in as few cycles as possible. You're ranked on your average cycle consumption over 32 runs. Can your ChipWit take the Gold, or will it wipe out in the snow?

Track Your Efficiency

We have added three new ways to view your stats in real-time, helping you build the ultimate bot.

1. Cycle Counts in the Radial Menu

Need to know how many cycles a new chip is going to take? Pop open the Radial Menu to see any available chip's Cycle Count at a glance.

3. In-Game Chip Counts

You can now see your Chip Count directly in the UI. Keep an eye on your total count without breaking your flow.

We're hoping these changes make it even easier to optimize your code for ChipWit Challenges!
