Treasure Hunt review!

### Aesthetics: 9 / 10

She really looks like she's skateboarding! Before I noticed the credits, I thought you were ripping off aplove with the character design. Not sure why this isn't associated with his NG page.

### Originality: 8 / 10

Skateboarding games are usually just about doing tricks for points. It's very unusual to see a proper platformer with skateboard mechanics.

### Challenge: 10 / 10

It's wicked hard! I thought it was unfair at first but I realized there are indeed skills to learn and I ended up beating it.

### Fun factor: 7 / 10

Way too punishing. Despite the fact that I'm riding a skateboard, the game feels clunky rather than smooth. I think there's a bug where the game remembers your speed when you press W to stop.

### Content: 8 / 10

Three levels plus a boss is a great amount of content.

### Total: 42 / 50

(The Treasure Hunt review score is different from the standard Newgrounds review score because it uses different criteria.)

fun but quite hard, I really like the movement

Great artstyle, though the game's quite hard. Still 5 stars.

I agree with user GoodSirFry for the most part. Perhaps the jumping could be reworked into starting when you first press space and then holding space allows the jump to go higher rather than having to hold down space and then let go to jump at the desired hight.

I really like the style and movement of that character on the skateboard. character dose not appear to jump high enough at times but it takes practice, If this could become a platformer with skateboarding elements that would be so original and I could sink hours into it add a high score meter and tricks forget it I will chase first like Down Hill to Infinity (Try that game if you have not it is on here) you need grind rails to be a button to link onto not just jump and ride on.
