Community Insight:
We love the game so much but we really wish we could pay for the full game but sadly we cant cuz we dont have an account of our own and our parents wont really agree. So we wanted to beg if at least we could have a few free character customization and maps without having to pay for the full game, it least just to keep it interesting, please. Thats just the only problem we have with the game and nothing else. We really hope you put this in mind.
Do anything without getting hurt with a skateboard.
We got this game a few years ago when it came out and had a blast with it and completely 100% it. We recently got it back and played through it again and it was awesome, so much fun to go back through everything. But it had the same amount of content as the last time we had played it which made us really sad so please continue to update and add more content to this game, we really miss it.
When will there be more to the storyline? WE NEED MORE PLEASE.
This is like a small mobile cartoon version of Tony hawk pro skater it's fun hope they add and online mode in future updates.
We love this game all of the tricks are really cool and the characters are great to the graphics are great.
Us and our friends really wanna play together it would be alot of fun if u think about it making friends in a skating game we can grind together we really like this game it has potential.
We actually love this game this is the only good skateboarding game on mobile. We beg that you guys update the game add more stuff more parks more customization more characters. And promote the game on ads and stuff we undoubtedly believe this game has a lot of potential and Id love too see it prosper. Much love, Shane Neal Ott.
This game is absolutely awesome. Ive been playing it non stop and it has a bunch of potential. We dont know why they stopped adding on to the game. We dont want to say its a waste of money but you pay just to have 2 more maps no adds and add a bit more on to ur character. You guys need to keep going, this game is amazing and the characters look cool and the missions are cool and its just a good look for a little cartoony skate game. More maps, more tricks, more free roam, more everything.
Been playing this game off and on almost since release and its so fun. It plays well, its easy to pick up, the mechanics are simple and good, the maps are great, the challenges are fun, the art style is so cute, customization is great, and the ability to make your own park and share them and download ones others have made is so awesome! Totally worth the purchase of the full game! Our only complaint is we wish there was more. The challenges, while fun, are really easy for the most part (at least for us), and we got through them all really quickly. Like within an hour. And while we still get a lot out of it by free skating and and trying to complete some of tje challenge parks people have made, Id love more challenges of varying difficulty. We like the challenges that are there a lot, we just want more, and we want some to be a little more difficult than beginner level. Id also love to see new maps be added with challenges for them. Or see the ability to add challenges to custom parks for anyone to download and try out. The game as is is great, we just want more of it.
If youre someone whos ever wanted to replay the Pro Skater games from the early 2000s or wanted a similar experience, this is the game for you. They basically take the game controls of that game and make them into mobile controls. Not with the use of buttons on screen but rather with finger movement and swipe controls which helps to declutter the screen. Plus, the game plays in vertical mode which means that you wont have to worry about turning your phone sideways to play. The game has a very cute friendly cartoon cel-shaded design to it that allows it to have its own personality. The in-game music and sound effects also help match that vibe. Also, the game allows you to earn skate wheels in which you can use the redeem character skins as an added bonus to progression. You unlock them not only through completing the tasks but also by getting a high number score on a trick. The game when downloaded is a free demo of the first two levels but paying the extra money for the entire game we do believe is worth it. If the devs read this, we do believe it benefits to allow a free demo followed by an optional purchase of the full game. It encouraged us and Im sure it did many others.
This is one of our favorite skate games but once you finish all the quests and the levels in the skatepark there is really nothing else to do unless you get the full version for 3.99$. We personally recommend this game if you dont mind getting the full version, but over all we like the game.
We like the game it just gives us ads we cant click out of and we have to turn of our phone and then turn it back on and sometimes we have to wait a day for it to go away and all our progress of the quest are gone but other than that we like the game its hard to play when you cant click out the adds.
We really like this game, but we dont know why they cant just make the game all free like its dumb, but we still like the game.
We were doing a challenge and the game would not let us go on the ground and we were stuck on the challenge for a week the game is hard to play but fun to play.
Bought the games premium version after having tried it before, and liking it. We are a fan of this sort of formula and this is really the only game filling this sort of space at the moment. Upon our return (after many patches updates and bug fixes) the controls seem stiff? Your flip tricks take you in the direction of where youre flicking while in the air but its more like your character shifts in the air and doesnt actually turn kinda feels odd. The main thing was that so many swipe gestures have similar motions and you arent ever really told play with your thumb glued to the phone which honestly made it feel stiffer. The lack of control options was kinda expected since its a touch screen game but customizable gestures and or buttons could help with this. The game is fun but we would LOVE to see the controls refined. We thought the plan b deck Easter egg was cool! ALSO ALSO ALSO The challenges are actively open when you are currently tasked with one making it infuriating sometimes to skate around to complete a mission without getting asked to start another. We would love to talk with the devs and give them feedback on their perfect Idea.
Started this game and it showed good potential, very fun. Unfortunately they had to go and ruin it with the pay for the full game we have zero issue with paying for a game. We pay for True Skate bc its worth it. But this game barely gives you anything to do before forcing you to pay for the whole thing. You should be able to play 3/4 of the game and get a feel for it before buying. Over 80% of the game is locked unless you pay for it. Undownloaded 10mins after playing. Theres plenty of other skate games that dont force you to pay for the whole game.
Its really fun and its probably one of the best mobile games and we like that it is one finger but you have to buy the rest of the game so if you arent willing to spend three bucks on this well though luck because you get like 0 gameplay from not having the full version and the devs in the game you run into like every 2 seconds because theres auto talk finally it should just be free cuase we dont and other people dont have the money.
We buy full version of this game in march, today we want to play and we're see buy full version.
This game is really really good and for it being just two of you guys this game came out amazing. We would not change a thing about it. It weirdly gives us a tony hawk nostalgic feeling when we play it and its just the best. We hope to see more updates soon.
This game is great for anyone who like a skateboarding games easy game play smooth game play at that. We have finished every mission the one thing we would love to see is a update for more boards.
Very underrated and definitely worth a try.
We like this game it keeps us from getting bored but after a while you finish all challenges. We feel as if a online multiplayer feature would be nice but im not sure how hard thatd be to code so just some new levels and challenges would be great.
We love this game concept but the thing that is bad about it is the pay wall because you can earn the currency but you cant spend it unless you buy the full game. All Im saying is allow players to purchase items even without the full game.
For one the first level and second level we completed and now this game was fun and then its basically a rip off why do we need to get the full game let us do it for free plss.
When we first got the game we were extremely excited because it took so long to download then then as so as it loads IT SAY we HAVE TO PAY FOR THE FULL GAME?! This is stupid and money hungry.
Very under rated game with good mechanics and tricks and even a fun demo before buying the full game.
Super simplistic but just layered enough to the point you can still have fun ages after you complete the game. The level editor/downloader makes up for the otherwise lack of areas. Its cute and has a certain soul to it, you can tell the devs invested their love while creating this game. Our only wish is that there was some kind of update or even a perfect grind 2 with even more tricks, a storyline, crazier movement. This really is our favorite mobile game ever. Its like the skate 3 for ios.
Noodle cake please make this game your main priority. Also consider adding setting for left/right hand so we can play with one hand and not have to swipe all the way to the edge. Its hard with a big phone to use one hand, and awkward using both.
Great game please add multiplayer.
Add steezus Christ with the Christ airborn trick it would be dope. Other then that good game cant wait for future maps and stuff.
To be honest this game is so much fun here are three reasons 1.us and our friends see who can get the most points over and over 2. It doesnt require internet to play 3. It is just fun in general But some things they need to fix is 1. Change the full game to 1.99 and not 2.99 2. They need to add more features 3. We have encounter many glitches some of our suggestions 1. Make it to were we can add wall pant in park editor 2. They should add more characters or customizable characters 3. We should be able to wall pant when we wall plant.
Cool game, Lil $2 pay wall is whatever ig (support small business) if they continue to update the game with more clothes and content im sure it'll be a hit.
We recently got this and we havent paid for the full version however we do intend to do so in the near future. The controls help make this game so much fun to play and it makes it easy to learn and the bright vibrant visuals make it pop as well. Overall we recommend this game to anyone who is looking for a time waster and we plan on buying the full version as well.
Really hope to see more updates and new features very good game.
Its like tony hawk pro skater for free and simple they should give us full access tho.
Game is cold — need more map updates we love it frfr.
Its really fun except for the fact that u gotta buy it but its worth the 2 bucks we have a suggestion please add a feature where you can combine tricks togeter to make different tricks.
Ok soo this is a very high quality game and you should get it the reason we gave it 4 stars is because when you moving to a good position to see it puts your skateboard out another reason is its just kinda hard to control but other than that it is GREAT game and you SHOULD get it.
Its fun fr we even bought the whole game but there just needs to be more maps, tricks, and challenges but it has a ton of potential its already a good game.
The game is awesome but the is a bug where we did a trick and we lagged out of the map and that is problem that probably should be fixed.
We love this game. Its actually an amazing speed game. Our only complaint is that we wish there was more content.
All we need is a goofy stance. Maybe we just cant find the setting for it, but we have no problem buying this game once its added. We tried to buy it anyway but it gave us an error when we tried to do so. But yeah really hoping you add goofy stance in here. Overall we love every thing about it. Love that we can lay in bed and play with one hand. Youve done a lot for one hand controls. The customization is great. Got a good variety of styles. Love where youre going with that.
Fun game overall but its annoying to interrupt gameplay with ads. Maybe just serve ads after bailing.
The game has potential, and it is fun, but the lack of flip tricks makes it superrrr underwhelming, like you cant even 360 flip? Thats like a core trick in skateboarding, and your character rides so fast, its really hard to get into the grind that you want, And why do you have to pay to unlock the full game? Just put in game purchases and than you could make even more revenue.
But its Incredibly dull, theres no rhyme or reason to the tricks, if you flick in any direction its always random. If you could master specific tricks with certain finger strokes like up right for kickflip up left heelflip, etc, it would be a GREAT game. But for now it just feels like some lame game on an old unity 3d game site.if you want to mindlessly do tricks you cant choose play this.
Just needs more maps or like a world browser for your friends worlds but very fun just have everything we possibly can do new maps please.
Please add other tricks like shuvit a.
This game is amazing Ive been having a blast and we told all our friends about it and weve been playing and the customization is good too. The game is easy to play too with still having verity of a tricks and best part its free ish and still has much to do with the cool challenges. Now for the iffy part. The pay wall we understand it completely and its not much but paywalls do affect how the game is viewed. This game has a lot of potential. We suggest(which most likely happen) is to just keep adding characters, tricks(A trick book to see all of them and how to do it),customization, maps and challenges. Last maybe make it a tiny bit easier to earn the in-game currency. Overall 9/10.
Game is fun but theres a couple of bugs. We got glitched outside the map.
