    I agree. I love the option to share a Gif! I'm a total nerd for old school and skate boarding games. Especially like 720 from the arcades back in the 80's/90's

    This game is awesome. It is a perfect quick play game.
    Is the current icon definite?
    I was wondering if you'd consider something like this, to capture that glorious hot pink 80s look and graffiti......

    I love this game! (I also love longboarding so yeah... it's boarding!)

    Found no bugs so far. It plays smooth. I actually have no idea how to improve the gameplay, it's solid already.

    I actually have one suggestion. Separate the levels and the characters. So I can play with a character I like on a different level I also like. So I don't like the idea you are forced to play with 1 default character on a level.

    The idea behind the cash is that you keep it and can show to others how much you earned? Because you don't need to pay to unlock things, just need the right amount of money. But I love it this way actually.

    If I buy the ad removal iap now, will I keep it? Even after the final release or if I remove the game? Just to be sure :

    And to all other players here... noooobs! I'm first on the highscore list with 181! Whooo!


    EDIT: Hm maby I got another cool idea for you. It's a kind of multiplayer. You play against an apponent in several rounds. Not real time, more against ghost of the opponents playthrough.
    For example: there are 5 rounds. I play the first round and when I finish with that round, it's send to my opponent. He then also starts with round 1 and he also sees my ghost (but maby in the other direction so they don't mix up in the gameplay).
    When he finishes with round 1, he immediately plays round 2 and after that I need to play again.
    I hope it's clear, could be nice :).

    EDIT 2: I Created some example screenshots for my multiplayer idea :). I hope you can create something like this devs, or maby in the future :).

    NOTE: THESE SCREENS ARE JUST EXAMPLES, I'M NOT A DEV.

    Some good ideas, man. I agree with the separating the players and levels. I "bought" the remove ads and stadium hero and it looked like the went through but doesn't work yet. I know the actual purchase isn't real yet but nothing changed, so I'm not sure if it is supposed to yet or not.
    I'm going to beat that score!

    Any chance you could add a random level option so it cycles through the ones you've unlocked each play through?

    Yup, the iap add remover isn't working for me either. The popup says the purchase is successful, only the game doesn't recognize it.

    Also my game center freezes since today. Seems to be an iOS 9.0 issue since a lot of people have it? Was working for months now..

    Or, even the exact logo next to the name on the home screen would be a good icon too.
    This is one of my all time favorite quick-fix games. No bugs or issues yet..

    Thanks for the beta invite! I'm really enjoying the game, love the pixel art and the simple one touch controls!

    Are the animated GIFs working already? I saved a couple of replays and then transferred the GIFs to my PC but they don't look right..

    Edit: tried it on my iPhone and the GIFs look fine. It seems the problem is with the iPad only, probably a scaling/aspect ratio issue?

    Thanks! I hope the devs do too. I want to add this to my home screen but the current icon clashes terribly with the others. Silly thing, I know, but...
    The ads finally disappeared :)
