River Raid looks like a good play on slalom mechanics but this was the actual inspiration for the game:

I'm not certain of the publish date, not that it really matters, but Canyon Runner saw a number of versions across several platforms in the early 80's. Based on how old I was when we got a copy of the CR data-cassette, it could have been written anywhere from '80 to '82.

actually, it looks more like River Raid (which predayes your VIC game), but less green.
