Many reviewers noted that the soundtrack not only fits the game's tone but also serves as a motivating backdrop for gameplay, making it a standout feature of the title.
- “The soundtrack fits great, ranging from jazzy hip-hop to electro house, there's usually a nice pulse going on and it feels good how you unlock new songs as you progress through the biomes.”
- “The soundtrack is amazing and super chill and is the cherry on top of the vibe sundae that is this game.”
- “The aesthetics, soundtrack, world and character design, customization and gameplay are all an amazing, really well polished experience.”

The gameplay is characterized by a gradual introduction of complex mechanics, allowing players to engage casually or tackle challenging side objectives for higher scores. It features a smooth and intuitive control scheme, vibrant visuals, and a captivating soundtrack, making it accessible yet deep for those seeking mastery. While some players appreciate the depth and customization options, others find certain mechanics frustrating or the pacing of new mechanics slow, leading to mixed feelings about the overall experience.
- “The gameplay starts very simple, and you're gradually introduced to more and more complex mechanics that will allow you, if you manage to incorporate them, to blow up the scores.”
- “You can approach the game as you please, either very casually or choose to tackle the side objectives that bring the true difficulty of the game and push you to use every mechanic to the fullest.”
- “The gameplay is amazing, and the way they give you a full moveset at the very beginning while explaining it sporadically throughout the game to not overwhelm you is done very well.”
- “Even though it's an arcade game, this gameplay is confusing.”
- “Such a shame, but bad level design and wanky mechanics ruined this game for me.”
- “I love the aesthetic, I love the music, I love the vibe, but the actual gameplay is a lot less Tony Hawk and a lot more Flappy Bird; jump at the right time to avoid crashing.”

- “The pixel art graphics have been abandoned :'(”

The story in the game is described as light, silly, and family-friendly, often poking fun at 90s skateboarding culture, but it is generally considered forgettable and not the main focus of the gameplay. While some players found the dialogue annoying and chose to skip cutscenes, the vibrant art style and engaging mechanics kept them entertained, providing ample replay value through side missions and challenges. Overall, the narrative serves more as a backdrop to the fun and addictive gameplay rather than a compelling element on its own.

- “Wonderfully addictive game feel, with satisfying tricks and combo systems that are fused together with an endearing little story.”
- “Its a very well designed, fun, challenging game with amazing visuals and cool storytelling!”
- “That said, I should also add that I did not pay attention to a single line of dialogue, as I found those very annoying, so story-wise it didn't do it for me.”
- “The story is forgettable in my opinion, but you can skip all the cutscenes by holding 'A' and just get back to being the skate god you are.”
- “By the third biome, I was skipping the 'story' and just rushing to get to the end until I realized I wasn't having fun.”

Overall, while grinding is a core and enjoyable aspect, it can occasionally lead to frustration as players progress.
- “The game can feel a bit grindy at times, but the rewards make it worth it.”
- “Grinding is a necessary part of the experience, and it adds depth to character progression.”
- “While there are moments of grinding, they are balanced by engaging gameplay and rewarding loot.”
- “Game slaps, played the first area, unlocked ranked and spent 4 hours grinding a 2 minute long level to reach the top rank in bronze 1 division and I'm going to do it again tomorrow.”
- “I'm having a blast with it, but that flow state is a little harder to come by in later stages where you're really limited in how you approach them, like it'd be cool if you could mess around a bit more on the flats instead of endlessly grinding out manuals, know what I mean?”
- “After a little more time with the game I do have to say, the 'challenging but fun' portion of the game comes to a grinding halt when you hit mid sketchside.”

- “Credits roll after at most 5 hours and while there is replay value, this is more of your typical casual indie title.”
- “Seriously, just add a slew of lines for each instance and have it replace the end dialogue if you skip the opening dialogue. For a game about replay value, it sure doesn't seem like the dialogue was considered in the gameplay loop; it's always in the way.”
