Skate Jam - Pro Скейтбордин‪г‬ 17+

Why I’m rating this as high as I am.

This game has so much potential and the things they can do with this game could be great, I’m also not impressed with the fact that the ripped the controls and basic functions from another game called skate party (plus the tutorial section is the first map you start with in skate party as well)
But I’m willing to look past that because if these developers decide to update this game frequently with new content and fixes to bugs, and this is just something I’d like to see maybe tried in this game, I really enjoy the feel of the flick controls in the EA skate games, I’m not sure if EA owns that but what if we could have an option for controls, instead of buttons we could have the choice to use another stick that it could be used in a similar fashion in the EA skate games. And on the topic of controls they are not as terrible as the other reviews I’ve read. IF YOU’RE ON THE FENCE ON WETHER TO GET THIS GAME OR NOT I FO DEFINITELY ASK TO GIVE IT A GOOD TRY. I think that the controls are the main cause for people deleting or not downloading. They have a bit of a learning curve and once you can get over that it’s a fun game that is satisfying when landing tricks and linking up lines. Great game once it gets the bit of work it needs it’ll be even better and it’ll get that 5th star.

Old School Tony Hawk

This game definitely brings back memories of the early Tony Hawk games. This is one of the better skateboarding games I’ve seen in the App Store. I love the music too. Now there are some downsides. I hate that the bailing mechanics are not consistent. I would bail on the dumbest things. Also I find myself falling through the world especially when I’m near a wall. Then all of a sudden the screen fades and I’ve responded someplace else. Which that spawn animation kills my time especially if I hit a buggy area. I will say the thing I hate the most is the speed of the character, even though I’ve increased my stats. Also I hate that the player doesn’t automatically kickoff when you respawn. Hopefully these things get changed. Besides all the weird bugs and mechanics I really enjoy the game.

I really want to like it but..

So the game is fine but the main layout is cluttered. There’s just so much to look at it, that it is overwhelming, and that’s not even why I don’t like the game.

My biggest issue with the game is the controls and the physics. If you’re not sure what I mean, download it and experience it for yourself. I can deal with the trick, Ollie, and grind buttons not always working, but the killing point for me is that when you hit a wall, you bounce right off. It might not seem like a big deal, but put a rail on your other side and you can’t escape. Even that wouldn’t be such a huge deal if that maps didn’t have a time limit, but if you spend 10 seconds trying to turn around or escape for a tight spot, you may as well start the level over right there.

All the micro transactions are super annoying too. I honestly am downloading touch grind 2 right now to see if it’s any good. I used to have touch grind 1 back in the day, and this Tony hawk game reminded me that I liked it. I’ll guarantee that at least the buttons will work, unlike this app.
