What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We think this is getting fun to play already and we want players to join us and provide feedback as we complete the rest of the features!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Two months”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to replace the placeholder level art. We plan to add more levels to skateboard in. We plan to add more skateboarding tricks that you can do. We plan to add character customization.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“This is a free form skateboarding game. You control your character on a skateboard. You skateboard around the level and do skateboard tricks. You can do skateboard tricks in the air by jumping off the skateboard ramps. You can do skateboard tricks on rails and ledges in the level. You can play offline solo by yourself which is the main game mode. You can host a private match with friends with peer to peer. You can join a friend's private match with peer to peer. When you play together with peer to peer you can see each other in the level and see each other doing skateboard tricks.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Price will not change when we leave early access.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We want players playing the game and giving feedback. We want feedback on existing features and feedback on priorities for upcoming features, as well as requests for new features that we might not have thought of ourselves but the community wants.”

About This Game

This is a third person, free form, skateboarding game inspired by retro and modern action sports games but without timers, required challenges, and punishing controls. You can skateboard in unique locations tailored for exploration and execution of creative skateboard lines and tricks across flowing skateboard obstacles and level designs. Experiment with tricks and lines at your own pace. The philosophy behind the game is to give you freedom to skate by not forcing a linear progression of challenges or difficult controls that might block you from seeing and enjoying the whole game.

The game is meant to offer something familiar to retro and modern action sports game fans, but also be forgiving to new players to the genre. Easy to play, inspiring to master is our goal. The game features precise, digital inputs and predictable, snappy, arcade physics to help you skate consistently. We don't want players to be frustrated by unpredictable, overly realistic physics simulations.

Supports:

  • completely offline single player

  • play anytime you want, anywhere you are, with no required internet connection

  • peer to peer private match multi player

  • optionally, connect directly with friends and skate together for old school lan party fun

Doesn't require:

  • you don't have to make an account

  • you don't have to log into a service

Who made it:

  • passion project

  • micro, indie team
