Epic Skater 2

Leave it to an indie game to be more exciting than Tony Hawk Pro Skater 5. I can't wait to see where the game developers take this. Another perk is there isn't a battle royal mode.

This game is set up like a free mobile game... with the payments disabled. The controls are strange and plenty of leftovers from the mobile space (Including instructions to 'swipe' the screen to do certain things), zero scroll-wheel support in menus, and a very clunky design that works fine for touch screens, but is terrible to a standard mouse or controller user. Steer clear of this one. I returned and refunded this within hours of purchase, it's that bad.

Last review was of the early access version. Only right to do the full version of the game. This game is Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2D basically. And by basically, I mean WTF I played this 5 hours straight a day?? The game is great, every problem/ bug thrown at the devs they fixed at a resonable timeframe. Achievements are good to go after, and 100 of them. Devs listen on their discord. For an eternity of re-playability, get yourself a THPS/ THPS2 soundtrack playlist and go on a mix of nostalgia and new age gaming wave to really put yourself in a fucking early 2000's gaming nuthouse.

Really fun game so far, controls are pretty much identical to THPS ones, which makes the game easy to handle. However, this is way more arcade than Tony Hawk or OlliOlli series, This is an overall good experience, even if there are some flaws that prevent Epic Skater 2 to be an excellent game. Navigation in menus using a controller is pretty messed up. In-game controls are good, but sometimes not responding quite well. Having the choice I would definitely prefer OlliOlli 1 & 2, but if you already played both and looking for another nice skating experience, go ahead. Edit: Got now more than 20 hours into the game, and my feelings are getting more and more negatives. The game is getting extremely frustrating, especially on rooftops levels. Not because of the difficulty (which is hard, but bearable), but because of the many bugs and "out of world" issues that ruin the experience, which leaves objectives really hard to obtain, if not unatainable. 5,5/10

Fun game that reminds me of playing THPS back in the day.

NO SUPPORT !

Babys first skateboarding game. That's all I have to say really. I liked it though. Be warned the menus are like a mobile game which makes sense since the first game was iOS only. Just thought I'd make that clear. Again...I still liked it though. Also controls are like a poor mans Pro Skater, so yeah you can use a controller. Jump is A, to do a kickflip involves X, Y is grind, etc. Once again...I still liked it though. 6/10

DO NOT PAY $15 FOR THIS!!! This is a mobile port and it shows. The game runs fine at first but then experienced a crash. After that, despite my efforts I was never able to get the game to run again. Due to its age it seems as though the game has effectively been abandoned so I doubt there will be any fixes for this. You could be throwing your money away on this game.

gud game

Honestly? Everything i wanted in an arcade-style skating game, jampacked with easy to obtain customization items, its easy to keep playing. Id say pick it up, why not?
