Score: 9
"tony hawk!"
date: January 9, 2009
a very good 2d version of tony hawk.
you lost a star cause its too hard, and a bit frustrating at times. for example, if you are stopped directly beneath a grind bar you want to grind on, good luck, cause your character must travel about a yard before being able to jump. try it. stop, then start moving, and see how long it takes you to jump. normally not a problem, but again, if you are directly underneath the grind bar you want to grind on, and that bar slopes up a yard away, its crucial.
things i;d like to see in a sequel? maybe move a little faster, this guy was pretty slow. and more in your environment than just standard half-pipes and grind bars. its called skateboard city, let me half-pipe onto a building,grind off its electrical wires... oh, and the combo should multiply your score for a trick. whats the point of racking up sweet combos all i get for them is a pat on the back. speaking of scores there's an easy way to cheat in this--you can set up a trick, the one where you balance on a half pipe, so that you are perfectly balanced. then first place on the scoring system becomes whoever is willing to sit there the longest on a half pipe. i was going to get first place just to prove a point (also because ive never gotten first place on any flash game ever) but i misread the top score as fifty thousand instead of five hundred thousand. but getting to sixty thousand took long enough for me (maybe 15 minutes) , and i am not dedicated enough to my point to let the game run in the background for a couple hours so have fun, whoever was in first place and has probably already been usurped by someone with far more patience than me.
