The camera movements were very flashy! The first level where the camera pans back to the "secret mechanic" is very very cool. I found it a bit difficult to keep ahead of the "secret mechanic", but had fun retrying levels and spamming that W key haha. Great job!
Awesome graphics, good gameplay, very good game! 10/10!!
I really liked this game. I think it is a super cool idea. I did manage to get stuck in a menu loop, and it felt quite hard getting back to speed when crashing in front of a rail but otherwise, it was great!

Very nice! On my first playthrough I died and the retry button somehow didn't work correctly, it just didn't reset me. But after reloading the game I finished it. Well made, the tutorial is very cool too which is rare! I wish I could be this cool on a skateboard :D.
Great game! I loved the twist at the end of the tutorial. I got the bug with retry not working on the second level but overall a great product!

I like the art style and the in game tutorial at the start worked really well for introducing the game. These were my scores after my first complete run. I'm sure I could do better if I practised but as others have said the retry button often doesn't work which makes that difficult. I also managed to both win and lose at the same time on my first run. Other than those bugs the game was well polished though, I especially liked the camera animation to reveal the secret mechanic. SkateOrDieScreenshot.png
Nice pixelart style! If you'll continue to work on it, it can be a good big game! Well done!

Oh man that name brings back some memories. Sunk many an hour on my NES playing a game with the _exact_ same name:

Ahem, ancient gaming history aside...
The twist villains move a little too fast to comfortably allow experimentation due to the the ultra slow recovery. I found myself playing more cautiously rather than going for the the tricks. Making crash recovery a little more forgiving would encourage more trickier aim-for-the-high-score type play.
Really cool to see a skating game and cool play on the turn of phrase. Great graphics loved the animation. Cool sound effects but kind of missed music. Found it pretty difficult but appreciated the middle finger work out mashing w like crazy.
