To alleviate any concerns about the skateboarding mechanics, veteran designer Steve Swink takes the helm of the development team. Swink’s previous experience, including designing a level in the acclaimed Tony Hawk’s Underground, demonstrates his aptitude in creating engaging skateboarding gameplay.
Initial impressions of Helskate have been positive, showcasing fast-paced action and visually stunning graphics. The game evokes elements reminiscent of Hades, an acclaimed title, as well as the enthralling Rollerdrome, which challenges players to perform rollerblading tricks to replenish ammunition.
Although the true potential of Helskate remains to be seen, the game has left a promising first impression. Its dynamic gameplay and stylish aesthetics instill excitement among players. Drawing inspiration from successful titles in the genre, Helskate aspires to reach new heights. Gamers eager to experience this innovative fusion of skateboarding and monster slaying can anticipate the arrival of Helskate on Steam’s early access in early 2024.
