  • Extremely rewarding and realistic skateboarding physics that capture the feel of skating or fingerboarding better than other skate sims.
  • Highly challenging with a steep learning curve, appealing to hardcore skaters and fans seeking real-skill mastery and individual style.
  • Active and passionate developer community with constant engagement, modding support, and commitment to ongoing improvements.
  • Game is still early access with many rough edges, including inconsistent grind mechanics, glitchy trick execution, and occasionally clunky board physics.
  • High difficulty and sensitive controls create a steep barrier for entry, which may deter casual players or those not willing to invest significant practice time.
  • Optimization issues lead to performance problems even on decent PCs, and limited content such as small maps and lack of tutorials reduce accessibility.

    The gameplay is challenging and rewarding, requiring players to master unique mechanics like timing a stick flick for tricks instead of a standard crouch button, setting it apart from other skate games.

    • “Very challenging, takes time to learn the mechanics and is very rewarding.”
    • “I would love some sort of crouch mechanic where you just flick the stick right when you want to do your trick, unlike most other skate games where you crouch first.”

  • stability

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game exhibits stability issues, including glitches during trick execution such as slow flips, reverts, and board positioning, which negatively impact gameplay and may lead to dissatisfaction.

    • “I sadly requested a refund because I was having some glitches where I would attempt a slow flipping trick or try to revert before landing, but my feet would just tornado or the board would primo and glitch a little as well.”
