Feb. 2025
This game is weird. It's absolutely unfinished, a buggy mess that was rushed out of early access with an undercooked story, repetitive levels and challenges, bugs, a progression system that doesn't feel rewarding when you lose all your upgrades upon dying (especially the stat points that make no sense to lose), no way to customize your character's clothes (a huge oversight compared to the Tony Hawk games), a lack of overall content, and did I mention the BUGS that are absolutely EVERYWHERE??? You constantly clip through walls, tricks you perform won't count, you'll get stuck in walls, the physics will feel wonky, your character model will get stuck in a certain position, the camera won't align correctly, tattoos you get won't actually show up on your character model, the targeting in the hub area gets stuck, etc. There's such a glaring lack of polish that's impossible to ignore and should be grounds for me not to recommend it. And yet, I can't put this game down. It's addictive as hel (pun intended). Combos feel so satisfying and transitioning from skating to fighting is seamless. The levels have so many lines to skate and it's easy to get a ton of air and launch all over the map. It does a fantastic job making you turn "just one more round" into 10 more. Even without much of a story, the characters are all lovable and feel like real people. Anton doesn't feel like some protagonist you're forced into, he's someone I actually enjoy playing as. The humor is very in-line for a skating game, being funny and cheeky without going over-the-top, and the writing has made me laugh out loud multiple times. The art style is gorgeous, the power-ups really allow you to customize your playstyle, overall it feels like a wholly original concept. I find myself choosing this over the Tony Hawk games when I want a skating game. The key word for this game is potential. So, so much potential. I really hope the developers spend a lot of time with this one because they have an absolute gem waiting to be polished. I was happy to drop the $25 to support them and hope they repay me by supporting this game. Absolutely recommend it, just be patient

This game is incredibly fun, especially if you like Tony Hawk Pro Skater and Hades. The only downside is that it isn't finished and it definitely needs new maps and content. Even with that, honestly it still is worth the buy in the state it's in right now.

A really creative mashup of hack'n'slash and skating games. Feels great and gives you tons of gamplay freeedom even in early access

This game is already awesome and I can't wait to see how it ends up! The concept alone is very fun, but it has also been implemented very well. It is an experience that is unique yet familiar. I hope the future of the game has more rewards, more ways to customize the experience and easy ways to share with others how personal choices have affected gameplay. Also, I'd like to see scoreboards, achievements or goals so I can have some friendly competition with others or at least myself. I have already shared my experience with others and look forward to seeing how others play the game. For now, I have created my own list of goals for myself that I look forward to doing. My current goal is to try to get a Christ Air in immediately before respawning because that seems like it'd be funny.

This is a combination of genres I always wanted as a game but just never figured out it could be implemented in a coherent way. THIS IS FINALLY THAT GAME. Arcade style skateboarding AND slaying monsters! and i love the physics styles like skater XL and session and stuff, but im not really good at them and they take all the fun out of button mashing and im from the arcade MK and Tekken Gen. We MASH BUTTONS. I cant wait to play more of this game, well done mate, do not give up on this one!!!
