Those below are my needs. I have no songs at all so I want any BGM I want some more variation of camera If it has watching replay function, it's wonderful. As for now, it's amazing. I want dev to keep up great works. adamphetamine, Pete :) and elcrazy like this.

Although it’s a bit clunky and restrictive. Plus it’s not easy to click that pause button in time. Would be great to have a proper photo mode. Superb game! Jerutix Well-Known Member Nov 3, 2009 1,754 65 48 Male Ministry Oklahoma https://www.discord.gg/kingrabbit #6 Jerutix, Aug 18, 2022 Definitely had fun messing with this game last night. And the character customization is also pretty great! Being able to change basically every color on the dude I’m using is a wonderful extra touch. ste86uk Well-Known Member May 9, 2012 6,774 1,000 113 #7 ste86uk, Aug 18, 2022 How do controls work on this? Are there actual controls or is it like the new Subway Surfers Tag where you just steer wherever you want to go and it automatically does tricks? Aravon17 Well-Known Member Mar 13, 2014 100 32 28 #8 Aravon17, Aug 18, 2022 Last edited: Aug 18, 2022 You control it all. Steering and tricks. It only takes a few minutes to start getting the feel of it. Left stick for steering, right stick for tricks and tapping for kicking. Tricks are earned and there’s quite a few different grab tricks to get. it’s truly a fun, beautiful game! adamphetamine likes this. NonSoft Well-Known Member Aug 13, 2010 103 9 18 #9 NonSoft, Aug 18, 2022 The presentation is great and it could be a lot of fun, but I find the camera to be awful. In a halfpipe or a static location, it's great, but as soon as you try to navigate a level, the camera either seems to be unable to keep up with where you're headed and you end up running into things you can't see. Even worse, it gets caught behind walls and other objects and you literally can't see anything. Maybe it's just me and I need to adjust, but I feel like there is some optimization needed there. Hoping the camera gets sorted in a future update because it seems like there is a fun game in there. Nothing automatic; you control all movement, speed, tricks, etc. Aravon17 Well-Known Member Mar 13, 2014 100 32 28 #10 Aravon17, Aug 18, 2022 Such a fun game!

It just can’t keep up or isn’t zoomed out enough. It also feels like it’s at a weird angle at times. Possibly something we can get use to but more camera angles would be awesome. Game is fantastic though. Love that it has manuals. You can make for some pretty big TH combos here. Looking forward to updates with more areas already. Alex DeLargest Well-Known Member Dec 16, 2010 346 122 43 Male USA/France #12 Alex DeLargest, Aug 18, 2022 So, no controller support? Aravon17 Well-Known Member Mar 13, 2014 100 32 28 #13 Aravon17, Aug 18, 2022 Not yet. Sure hope it gets added. Pete :) Member Apr 18, 2021 10 18 3 Melbourne #14 Pete :), Aug 19, 2022 Hi all! I'm Pete, the Dev behind Pocket Skate. It's so awesome to finally get it out there! As for controller support, it's not in the game at the moment but I'll look into it for sure. Out of interest what controllers would you be using? @Aravon17, I have a photo mode planned for in game. Should be in one of the next releases Replay is also planned, but it's a little tricky, so it might take a while to get there. Sorry to hear some of you are not having a great time with the camera. There is a locked off mode if you press the little blue icon up the top left but you might already be aware of that and it's not for everybody. I'll keep working on the camera for the next update and try to get any whacky stuff under control! Thanks so much for checking out the game! After a little break I'll be working on adding more stuff and tweaking things so I'll keep you all posted here with any updates. Thanks!

Only played the small tutorial and I can tell this will be even more glorious then the first, which is still on my phone. The only thing I hope is that there is much more content then that one.
