Skategoat

An indie skateboarding game that aims to capture the feeling of real skateboarding while not taking itself too seriously!

How does it play?

• There are endless trick combinations, nollie tricks, late flips, grinds and manuals

• Timing matters, time your jumps perfectly to jump as high as possible, and catch your tricks at the right moment for a better score!

• Various gestures/shapes represent different foot positioning for different tricks. These use controller stick (or touch on Steam Deck), and you can even play with a mouse."

Game modes and levels

• Tutorial and "Campaign" levels will guide you through how the controls work and provide various challenges

• "Spots" are here for you to try to land your best combos on complex obstacle setups

• Game of Skate levels allow you to unlock other animals with different stats

• Replays let you enjoy and save your best runs and combos!

Endless mode deserves its own section :)

This is what brings a lot of replayability!

Skate with "a single life" through procedural levels composed of familiar obstacles, get a high enough score to progress through sections with increasing difficulty.

Unlocks and equipment

There's a selection of equipment that will improve your stats (boards that pop higher, trucks that grind better, wheels that roll smoother) and also cosmetics like colors and graphics. And also hats. :)

Development story

The game started as a personal game jam over the 2016 holidays and literally grew from its name. The original motivation was mostly to make something for myself to play on the phone as the mobile ecosystem is what it is.

Over the years, on and off in my limited spare time, it evolved from a mobile-only game to include controller support and more content. As I'm now a full time solo developer, I have ported the project from Unity to Godot and I'm working towards a demo and the full release.
