    Congrats on Game of the Week, @Pete :)

    I enjoyed what I played of Pocket Skate but would also be interested in controller support if/when you have time to implement it. I use a Backbone controller as well.

    Been playing Pocket Skate for a few days now and as with HalfPipe, I’m in love. I mean, look, this isn’t a knock at the game or @Pete :), but you should approach this more as a toy than a game, and believe me, it’s wonderful at what it does. Even though I don’t have music (files) on my phone nor am I subscribed to Apple Music, there’s nothing more cathartic to me than to fire up my Bandcamp app, listen to some glorious Undeath and skate a few hours away in Pocket Skate. It’s a wonderful experience!

    I suck at the controls I really wanna git gud at this one though. Charming as f*ck and goes alongside True Skate pretty well.

    @metalcasket I came here to read more about the game but had to leave a post after the death metal comment plus Bandcamp I’m always surprised by the amount of people that don’t know what it is.

    Anyway back to the topic the game congrats on game of the week it’s made me come back to check it out closer after thinking it wasn’t for me the first time I took a look.

    Right! So I tried it again, this time opting NOT to go for the locked cam and…

    BETTER! I like this more than Urban Trial Pocket hahaha. At the moment at least.

    Rad! Glad you got into it :)

    Hey thanks, that's a cool way to look at it. I kinda wanted it to be the sort of thing you could just jump in here and there and have a session.

    Thanks! I'm going to prioritise controllers a bit, I'll see if I can get them in one of the next updates.

    @Pete :)

    So how’s the update work coming along?…

    will the 1st update contain controller support and photo mode?

    G'day!
    Just workin' on controller support right now :) It is a little trickier than I'd first thought but I reckon it's going to be rad! I'm glad people were interested in it.
    That's definitely going to be in the first update, hopefully in a few weeks time.
    I've had to delay the photo mode a little, but it's still definitely on the cards.
    Thanks!
    Pete

    Can you please implement Haptic Feedback on Supported controllers as well?! Would be cool to see the controller vibrate when we land/slide etc.

    Hi all!
    Yeah we had to take the App off the store while we were doing the latest update, but then a few things went wrong and wouldn't let us put it back on :rolleyes:. Still not back in a few regions but apparently support are looking into it...

    We are working on this so the haptics should get a nice update soon, even on paired controllers.

    Hey, glad you liked this! :cool:

    Next up, I'm working on new levels and improvements to the existing ones.
    Thanks again for all the support!
    Pete.
