Ranked from 7 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

Creative Vision / Rationale / How Did You Incorporate the Theme
Primarily in the form of the goal/motivation of the game - sharing with neighbours.
But also considering it in gameplay - being generous to the player (like coyote time), not having punishments for crashing

I love hoverboards, it's always fun riding around! The leaning, sounds, and board trail made it very smooth. Sometimes I felt the board was abit loud, but overall nice job!

I love the sound and vfx for the hoverboard, they're really cool! At first the controls felt really clunky but they smoothed out a bit after i got used to how the board worked. It was definitely fun just riding around, although i really hated bottoming out and losing control. And i couldn't tell a difference in what was happening in the air when i held crouch/jump or drift. Minor issues though, overall it was fun!

Really cool character controller! gliding through the hills was pretty awesome. I think if I could stay attached to the ground while  going over a hill to build more moment until I was ready to jump that would be super fun!

Hey it's Chris!
Ok wow.. I loved the way the character moves gliding around with the hoverboard. More than that, the way the engine sound flickers and the crashing of large jumps--it all feels great. I haven't worked with UE before, but have you considered lowering the file size, or making it a bit more accessible for Itch players? I feel like a lot of players would love to play your game, but ~1GB is a bit daunting (plus Windows flag the .exe as a virus threat..). Hope you keep working on this because I would love to play a Steam game that utilizes this core mechanic!

Hey,  I should have kept the size down a little more, but can't make any changes for a while now the compo has finished,

As for windows flagging as a virus, are you sure it's not just saying its unsigned? checking on virustotal it's not picking anything up https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/196dc79862bb8a2fcda84c714c827ba27f4b402597bb...

if you could share a screenshot of the message, that'd be fantastic
