In this game you must peform skating stunts in a disused multi-story car park, following a specific route, and once finished a jury will vote your performance, determining the end of the game or your succeeding to the next level. Although, if you pass the votation, there's another possibility: you can load a section with different graphics and gameplay, where you must skate over obstacles trying to reach the other end of the itinerary. Then you can go on to the next level of this section, or go back to the car park and face a new challenge there. Each section has 4 levels. The car park part is in a monochrome but fluidly scrolling, well drawn and animated sorf of 3d display, while the other is shown in a colourful side view. It's pretty good, although personally I'm not very skilled at doing the stunts. I usually just press randomly the directional keys while jumping, hoping that something good happen. But I'm certain that there's a more rational and graceful way to play.

This is actually two games. In the first one, you go around a skating course performing stunts and dodging stuff. I saw this video on youtube, in which the guy was going and turning and skating backwards, and all very fluidly, and I was like maaaan, this is Tony Hawk's on the Speccy! Trying to pull those stunts is a bit hard, but addictive, and I got good enough at it to get to level 2. But then there was a whole lot of dodging stuff, and it was very annoying. So the annoying part didn't let me enjoy the rest, I guess. But if dodging stuff is your jam, give this one a go.

Now, the second game is an uninspired platformer. I didn't even feel like trying it a second time.
