  • Highly realistic and intuitive VR skateboarding controls using hand motions, offering an immersive experience unmatched by other skate games.
  • Strong and active modding community with built-in support for modded maps, enhancing replayability and map variety.
  • Engaging multiplayer with social features, built-in camera system for filming, and a satisfying sense of skateboarding flow and freedom.
  • Currently limited number of official maps and environments, leading to somewhat sparse areas to skate in without mods.
  • Some stability issues such as host disconnects kicking players from multiplayer sessions, and occasional glitches, especially on PCVR setups.
  • Graphics are functional but unimpressive and not optimized for PC, resembling a lower-budget standalone Quest title, with visible pop-in and low detail in some areas.
  • graphics
    14 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are generally functional but somewhat unpolished, with textures and models feeling basic and clearly ported from Quest versions. While PCVR offers slight improvements, graphical options and visual variety like time of day or weather are limited. However, the art style consistency and solid performance help maintain immersion, especially on smaller maps and with mods.

    • “The graphics are functional but they don’t stop you from diving in.”
    • “I think that the smaller, more compact areas have very good graphics for, once again, a quest compatible game.”
    • “Modded maps as well can be absolutely outstanding graphically.”
    • “So this game was good for early access for standalone on Quest 3 but graphics need to be a bit more polished. Graphics are a tad bit better on PCVR version but still not great.”
    • “I'm sorry, I appreciate the work put into this, and normally I don't care about graphics as long as the art style is consistent, but the models and textures are not good.”
    • “It seems this is ported directly from Quest; there are no graphical options to improve visuals on PC.”
  • story
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players feel the game currently lacks a compelling story, objectives, and deeper customization options, which would enhance its value. While the physics are praised and the game shows strong potential as a VR skate experience, users desire more refined maps, additional tricks, and missions to enrich gameplay. Overall, the narrative element is underdeveloped, making the game feel somewhat incomplete in its current state.

    • “It needs a story, some objectives, better customization, bigger and more refined maps, and some competitive mini games like the old Tony Hawks would be pretty cool.”
    • “I do wish there were more customizing options like importing board decks, and missions would be cool too.”
    • “This game has potential to be the best VR skate game we have, and hopefully more tricks and maps will be added.”
    • “In its current state, I think $20 is a little steep for what you get. It needs a story, some objectives, better customization, bigger more refined maps, and some competitive mini games like the old Tony Hawks would be pretty cool.”
    • “This looks like a lower budget Quest game on PC, I cannot lie.”
    • “I even have 30+ hours on Quest and bought it for PC just to play the bigger PC exclusive maps.”
  • gameplay
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is intuitive and addictive, offering a unique hand-controlled trick system that improves upon similar games like Skater XL. While mechanics can be a bit goofy and occasionally buggy, the core foundation is solid and continuously improving, with enjoyable multiplayer lobbies and features like a built-in camera for filming skating videos.

    • “The lobbies are fun and have kind players, the game mechanics are a little goofy but work rather well. Plenty of work to be done but the foundation is there and is constantly being improved upon.”
    • “Gameplay is incredibly intuitive, you can play with friends, and you can film your own skating videos with a built-in camera.”
    • “It can be a little buggy and mechanics are still being fleshed out.”
    • “Very similar to Skater XL mechanics-wise, except better in my opinion because you're using your left and right hands to do the tricks instead of the thumbsticks.”
  • music
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is limited and repetitive, leading many players to mute it and use their own playlists. While a good soundtrack is appreciated, it is not considered essential for this type of game. Some updates have introduced new maps and music.

    • “The other thing is music, there's obviously not a lot and it gets repetitive, but then again most people will likely just mute the in-game music and listen to their own playlists.”
    • “As far as I'm concerned, this is the type of game where a good soundtrack is a bonus, not required.”
    • “New maps and music”
    • “The music is obviously limited and gets repetitive, which can be quite dull during extended play sessions.”
    • “There is not a lot of music variety, leading to noticeable repetition throughout the game.”
    • “Most players tend to mute the in-game music and listen to their own playlists due to the lack of engaging soundtrack.”
  • optimization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization is generally solid, especially on PCVR with good performance via link cable, though standalone Quest 3 graphics need polishing. Some issues persist, such as menu glitches when using Steam Link or Virtual Desktop and control conflicts on PCVR, which need fixing. Overall, the game shows strong potential but would benefit from smoother turn options and further graphical improvements.

    • “The performance so far is fairly solid.”
    • “The physics were very good, and performance ran well on PCVR version using a link cable.”
    • “There are some issues with menu glitches when using Steam Link or Virtual Desktop, and some control conflicts on PCVR, but overall has potential to be the best VR skate game.”
  • stability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability shows promise but currently experiences glitches, especially when using Steam Link or Virtual Desktop, and some control issues on PCVR. While performance on standalone and PCVR versions is generally good, bugs and unrefined mechanics indicate the game is still in an early, developing state.

    • “If you use Steam Link or Virtual Desktop, the game glitches at the beginning menu where you can't click on anything or proceed to move. On the PCVR version, pushing the thumbstick pulls up the menu, which conflicts with the crouch button. This issue was not present on the standalone version.”
    • “It can be a little buggy and mechanics are still being fleshed out.”
    • “Performance runs good on link cable, but graphics need to be more polished.”
  • grinding
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Grinding in the game is highly praised for its smoothness and satisfying control, making it the standout and most enjoyable aspect of gameplay. Players appreciate the precise mechanics and the ability to perform various grind tricks with ease.
