While SkateBIRD won’t win awards for its skateboarding mechanics, it does have a lot going for it. It’s a bummer, because otherwise, SkateBIRD is pretty okay. There were many times when my bird would stop grinding, losing momentum instantly somehow-or the camera would become detached, and force me to restart the game in order to have it follow my bird around again. While annoying, it wasn’t as egregious as all of the bugs I encountered. To fill up this bar I would gain momentum on a few ramps-but the camera never seemed to know what it wanted to do, always spinning in a nauseating fashion. There is a gauge called the “fancy” bar that, once filled, allows to you go higher up pipes and walls. Unfortunately, I had massive issues with SkateBIRD’s camera. While SkateBIRD doesn’t have the best feeling skating in the world, it’s certainly playable and even fun taking your tiny bird around various full-sized environments. You can customize your bird in a wide range of readily available looks, and then you get right into skating. I’ve played a lot of skating games over the years, and SkateBIRD gives a good first impression. But a skating game is all about the skating, and SkateBIRD had me frustrated. So your job is to skate and meet new winged friends all on a quest to help your Big Friend. As the bird your goal is to help your “Big Friend.” See, he’s missing, and hasn’t had as much time to play with you as you’d like. Don’t get me wrong, it has all of the skating moves you would expect in a game like this, with open stages that allow you to mess around finding collectibles, or complete missions to unlock the next stage. Unfortunately, gameplay-wise, it’s a little rough around the edges. Based undoubtedly on videos of birds skateboarding, SkateBIRD is a great concept for a skating game. SkateBIRD is a skateboarding game with one significant twist: you’re a bird! Instead of using your feet to propel your board, each skate birder flaps their adorable little wings. But as cute as it is, SkateBIRD has a few issues that really clip its wings. And while it’s not hard to see that SkateBIRD might not be Tony Hawk, it certainly takes inspiration from that series. It’s obviously adorable, and a game concept that is easy to latch onto. SkateBIRD will release on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch worldwide on 16th September 2021.SkateBIRD is a game I’ve seen at a few festivals over the years, and it has always drawn a crowd. The game’s post-launch support will include the Pet The Bird Mode’ and Skate Heaven stage, while at launch you can expect “a range of updates and polish” such as mission objective refinements, UI and sound improvements, a camera overhaul, and more. These skateboarding birds always try their best, and, along with an “original low-fi birb-hop soundtrack,” you will find fancy clothing, secret mixtapes of new music, and other birds that need your help. With the chance to explore bird-sized parks, in SkateBIRD you will be challenged to grind on bendy straws and kick-flip over staplers – carving killer lines through parks built with cardboard and held together with sticky tape.
#SKATEBIRD RELEASE DATE PC#
16, 2021 lets us ramp up our efforts to ensure SkateBIRD comes to PC and consoles on the same day!” “As a small indie studio, completing certification on multiple platforms requires plenty of extra work. But SkateBIRD was always a game about doing your best, and we owe it to our backers, fans, and fellow bird enthusiasts to ship the game in its best state,” explains Glass Bottom Games founder Megan Fox.
Glass Bottom Games has confirmed the release date for SkateBIRD has been pushed back into September, a difficult decision that reflects the developer’s “commitment to simultaneously shipping the game across all platforms.”
