Guys. This game has been my absolute go-to time waster for the past several weeks. I love it. Every time I have a couple minutes, I am trying to crush my last best distance. Your game is addicting, it's simple, and it's fantastic.
This update you just put out...makes me want to hate you. Now every time I finish a run,I have to sit through an ad for a game I don't want. Let me tell you exactly how much I could care less about the Simpsons tap game. Zero. I absolutely understand that you need to make money. But you are losing mine. You made more challenges, which will keep me coming back. Make it so I have to keep progressing in the game somehow. That will keep me coming back.
Guess what will make me want to never play this game again? Ads. I am not a marketing analyst. I don't know how apps work to make money. I do know you have lost my business unless you fix this nonsense.
Please, for the love of all that is holy, let me play your game without ads. Thank you.
Not only is this game my favorite skate board game so far on ios. It's the greatest arcade game as well. You can play for hours, try and get your stats up, and you'll get addicted. Like other people on here I think clothes should be added, new decks you can buy, possibly new maps or an extension of the one you have already, maybe add like the dude's school or something. Or something like a city. And what would make the game harder, try adding cars and civilians in the background. That would cool. But overall as you can tell I love the game. I believe it has potential to be awesome and I would definitely keep playing this game if y'all give us more maps that's what I think would be the coolest.
Great Game!
Thanks
Until you need energy drinks to finish a combo that you earned, should be able to watch an ad real quick for an energy drink or buy one with coins. Game was a blast until I had a 100+ combo, that I didn't get credit for. I also don't like when there are two paths and you go to do a back or front flip, and it forces you onto the higher path only to fail, but the challenges that I speak of make it fun, and my only other suggestion would be way more options to outfit your dude, outfits and decks, which I'm sure will be in future updates. Would give 5, but THEY DIDN'T FINISH THE TRICK! Ha! lol
Update: Been playing more, and appreciate the challenge, hopefully they ad new environments, and custum stuff for your dude. Game gets buggy in the tunnel, and will even freeze your dude, other than that I am understanding it more, and don't really need my gripes addressed, as it would get boring if it was too easy. I also like how there is separate leaderboards for when you use continues, and when you don't. Not no skater, but this gives me me skater game fix, looking forward to the games expansion.
This game is amazing! I haven't had one single glitch, crash, or problem with it yet! The only thing that I would like to see out of this game is make outfits for your skater, and don't make them worth gold, since you spend gold on your board, but make outfits worth points or something, because if you added that, this would be my favorite app on the app store!
The only issue I had with this game was fixed in the last update! Awesome! Grinds & flip tricks look legit considering it's made to have a 90's Nintendo feel. The gameplay has a sonic the hedgehog vibe to it which is rad. It seems to be geared toward actual skaters as much as gamer kids which is cool.. Hope they expand on the level & bring in new scenery as you travel farther, rather than just a basic scenery loop. Also they should make the tricks pop "nollie" out of noseslides & crooked-grinds, so it looks more realistic.. but I'm sure they will eventually
It's way better than skyline surfer but lacks some of the more basic UI features skyline Surfer has. You can't change or customize your skaters appearance at all, but you can edit many of your skaters stats and attributes fortunately, which gives an element of player progress and growth. The same goes for the actual skateboard it's self which you can't change. Also you run out of achievements very quickly and end up cycling through the same achievement sets repeatedly. There are a few more things but I don't want to sound like these problems completely overshadow the great gameplay as it is. To sum it up, a GREAT game easily capable of being AWSOME and all it's problems seem to fall under the category of lacking a real reward system and character progressiun.
Updated review after game update.
Pros:
- Cool environments, lots of different set pieces for jumps, grinds, and gaps.
- Decent assortment of tricks.
- Fair upgrade system that doesn't require much grinding for coins.
- Able to get energy drinks, to keep playing if you bail, while playing.
- Sounds are good.
Cons:
- Character flickers or has no coloring.
- Two finger tricks don't always register.
- Inputting a manual while mid-air can result in a flip-trick registering. If you're near the ground you'll wreck.
- Character can get stuck in the air above a rail while moving at high speeds. Have to quit to main menu to proceed.
- Leaving the app open causes an issue with other apps where they'll randomly minimize to the main screen.
Overall I'm still sticking with 3/5 stars. The game is good but lacks the polish that would make it amazing.
This is the first Skateboarding game I have really liked for iOS. There are a few things I think they should add to make this game more fun. I think they should add a shop for players to buy and purchase new cloths and skateboards with coins from the game and "real money." Also I would personally like there to be more tricks there are a lot of tricks and combinations you can have but I would love to see more. The last thing they should add is being able to upgrade a certain trick to make the trick higher and better. Besides the down sides this is definitely the best skateboarding game i have played for iOS.
This game is great. I love it. Tis just like Skate for Playstation but more simple and basic. There's a variety of tricks, a rather challenging, yet easy, but still fun combo system, and the environments are decent for an app. There's even ragdoll physics!
There are a few issues that need to be fixed and should be fixed. Firstly, when you die and want to use an energy drink to keep going, it wont read your press on the button so really you only have one try to get a really high score. Plus it is one of your three missions ("Use an Energy Drink") and the missions are done three at a time and give you XP (which you need to level up and upgrade your score multiplier). This means that youre stuck with the three missions and you cant progress in the goals nor retry to get an even better score. The ragdoll physics are great but the environment isnt accustomed to them. Every surface whether the ground or a rail is treated as a flat surface. So when you fall on a rail, you don't fall off of it but you just roll along it. That doesn't make any sense! Also there is zero customization on your skater even though it could easily be done and should be done. This game is great, but some tuning would make it better.
