It's obvious from its 2.5D visuals and side-scrolling perspective that Skate City is quite different. It mixes a unique perspective with real-world visuals and relaxing, quick-to-learn controls.
Skate City is real-world inspired. Our levels are based on real cities, and we've taken inspiration from real-world obstacles and skate spots. We wanted the game to get as close as it could to feeling like real skating.
The side-scrolling perspective is relaxing—it keeps you on-course and frees you to focus on mastering tricks and stringing together lines. And there are a SLEW of tricks to master, including flip tricks, grabs, grinds, spins, and manuals.
This streamlined approach results in a game that captures the meditative feel of street skating. Skate City's focus is on recreating what street skating [i]feels[/i] like, taking you back to the joy of bombing down the streets with your mates as a teenager, on a sunlit afternoon.
We can't wait to see what you make of our unique, chill approach to crafting a skateboarding game. Head over to our Discord community and share which tricks you're looking forward to mastering: [url=https://discord.gg/snowman]discord.gg/snowman[/url].
Thanks for reading and until next time!
