Our indie friends are giving it a good go too, as shown by Skatebird. But they are now back, and it’s not just the big AAA publishers making them. Earlier this year, we spoke to her about the game s humble origins, what s next for SkateBird and why accessibility in. I can't get past just how anti-fun the controls, mission design and world design are. Once a staple throughout the 2000s, skateboarding games gradually fell out of favor. With the expo canceled, we decided to take this week to get acquainted with the incredible women behind some of our favorite and most-anticipated games, including SkateBird developer and Glassbottom Games CEO Megan Fox. I wanted to like this game so much, but it's one of the biggest disappointments of 2021. I'm sure SkateBIRD will click for someone, and if that's you, I am very jealous. There is no way to fast-travel to the next mission or even get a waypoint marker to where the bird is, so you're left to explore and hope for the best. Unfortunately, you'll have to do a little bit of digging since you need to find birds inside each level to trigger the next mission. You can also find new clothing and accessories in levels to unlock, giving you a reason to explore. There's a surprising amount of birds and cosmetic items you can dress your skater-bird in.

Explore lots of bird-sized parks, with simple controls familiar to any pro skating tiny hawk.What's consistent with pre-release and now is that SkateBIRD has a wonderfully wholesome art style, and the somewhat cringe commitment to 'birb' aesthetic and language works for me.Birds will come check out your park, help you find more parks, and together you'll (somehow) fix Big Friend's life! And if you bail, you just get back up – because above all else, skate birds try their best!

You may be tiny, but the more you skate, the more friends you'll make. SkateBIRD Developer Talks Importance of Story Mode and Kickstarter Goals One important element of SkateBIRD is its story mode, a fairly new addition to the game. You're gonna fix all that with the power of being a chill little skateboarding bird. Their job sucks, and lately, they're barely ever home to play with you. Grind on bendy straws, kickflip over staplers, and carve killer lines through cardboard and sticky tape parks, in SkateBIRD! You're a lonely lil' bird, and your Big Friend has hung up their board for good. Oh, come on! It's a bird on a tiny skateboard! How adorable is that?!? Courtesy of Glass Bottom Games. The game doesn't have a release date yet beyond '2021', but we do know it'll be coming to PC, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch. SkateBird, released in September 2021, took advantage of the Summer Game Fest 2022 and more particularly of Wholesome Direct (event dedicated to independent games) to pass a head. All with developer commentary to show it off. The new level, which you can see in the video below, shows off the things you can do as the bird as well as the obstacles in your way.

It will be available for Xbox One, Switch, PC via Steam and Itch. Much like other skating games, you'll do tricks and special moves while staying in motion to gain points, only for this one you're a bird on a tiny skateboard doing it in areas made up of household items. Developer Glass Bottom Games has delayed SkateBIRD from its previously planned August 12 release date to September 16. This is one of those weird games that comes out of left field and we're kinda excited to see it come out. Glass Bottom Games revealed a new level for their upcoming game SkateBIRD during the Game Dev Direct showcase.
