The balance feels pretty unforgiving - maybe it's just been too long since I played Tony Hawk a lot. It also looks like you're not working in the 84x48 resolution. The animation and presentation looks good.
Getting the hang of the balancing system is really interesting — at least for me, it was quite tricky at first 😂. Really cool, the mechanics were very well designed to keep everything balanced. The only thing that happened to me a few times was that bombs would appear too close to the holes, and I’d end up hitting them when jumping. But overall, a great game!
Thanks for playing, the bomb location is actually something I took into consideration, blacklisting the position right above the hole and the two adjacent ones. However, I realize one thing I haven't done is take that into account after I added gradually increasing speed (thus making the jumps effectively wider) - increasing the minimum distance between bombs and holes would have probably made it less frustrating to deal with at the same time. Currently, the way to deal with them is to time the jump in advance so the animation ends before reaching the bomb.
this is super fun and funny, 10/10
Thank you for playing!
I wasn't good at skateboarding in real life, and it's the same in the game. The game is great and a lot of fun!
Personally I've yet to try it in real life at all hehe, thanks for playing!
fun! we actually wanted to do something like this for the grind section of our game!, your solution was great
Thanks for playing! It took a bit to fine-tune the balancing part of the grind, and I still feel as if there's room for improvement. I tried emulating what other skateboarding games do (or Saints Row 2/3/4's car surfing)
Fun silly game :p
Thank you for playing!
Fun to play. Hard to master.
