Game looks fantastic, music is great too, but the game itself feels very difficult to get any real speed. Collision boxes are pretty big, and the player moves up and down slowly.  Obstacles are so frequent there feels like no way to avoid hitting them since the jump takes a while to charge up.

Game's artstyle is defenitely nice!

Jumps a little bit unpredictable, but dynamica so catchy)

I hope my feedback was useful! I'd appreciate it a lot if you could check out my submission too!

Okay, the graphics/artwork is absolutely incredible, on par with some of my favorite stuff I've ever seen. I'm seriously floored by your aesthetic. The music and the gameplay itself are also really cool! My only complaint is that I wished there was a separate control to kick with my foot to gain speed like a real skateboard. (It's kind of annoying how jumping is what makes the skateboard go faster.)

Graphics are outstanding, love the 2D+3D look to it! Hitboxes need a bit of working on, they feel like they hit no matter where you are in the lane which is a shame, the rest of the game is great!

Very nice looking game! I also like good boys and skating so that helps!

I think it would be way more fun though if it was like 5 times as fast from the start. It just feels so frustratingly sluggish and I can't get past that start because I keep on miss-timing because that slow speed is unintuitive.

Also it would be cool if you could land on some objects like benches without penalty, mario style :P

Either way, still the best looking game I came across so far, well done!

I agree with  both of properlydecent's points. The base speed is painfully slow, and the world also starts out quite crowded. If you started with less obstacles, the base speed could be faster and it would just feel more "actiony."

Amazing graphics and music, but there are a few things i would change:

1. I sometimes can't really see where the obstacles are, maybe make a more subway-surfer-like perspective.

2. I don't really know when to jump, and i don't need to jump that often, i think this game could have been amazing as an "Only-Jump-Game", cause the jump feels amazing.

3. Indicate how many hits you can take.

Other than that, pretty nice variation on a classic endless runner. I hope my feedback helped you, and it would be really cool if you could check out my submission too. Thanks! :)

Thanks for the feedback!

About the 3rd point, your HP is actually the speed youre able to maintain. If your speed gets too low (~5km/h), you will fail

Oh, now i get it!
