While you may start a little higher, simply riding through the ramp will get you enough forwards momentum to get a pretty decent score before hopping off the billboards. Many of the game’s features will require you to build up some speed first, which makes the game feel way more enjoyable since it’s not just about hitting the right button at the right spot, but your actions before that point also matter.Ī great example is the wallriding tutorial, which you’ll absolutely struggle through if you pre-emptively jump to get up on the board. One thing I really like about OlliOlli World is that momentum is really important. You’re also able to use the left stick to do tricks, with a pretty intuitive any-direction approach. The tricks feel really fun to do, and the game’s scoring system means you’ll absolutely need to get the hang of the basics like Wall Riding or Grinding to get enough points to clear. The hands-on we got was more like an extended tutorial for the game, letting you learn the basics of the skate-based platformer. So far the branches tend to be up to the level’s individual design, and many of the paths will head to dead ends meaning you’ll have to go back to one particular path. Of course it’s not like the game is perpetually three parallel tracks. It’s a great way for players to mess around and find out what works for them, meaning there’s also a window for players to find out they’re better at the game than they previously thought. Meanwhile there’s also a lot of potential for self discovery, since the harder route isn’t locked behind some “God-Slaying Master of Skate” mode. I really enjoy this, because instead of just having difficulty sliders, baking the difficulty into the level itself is really interesting, letting you choose on the fly without some sort of flag chastising you for wanting to have a good time.
It’s got this interesting new Play At Your Level system, where the game has different pathways that you can take that require different skill levels. OlliOlli World retains both the game’s signature difficulty, while also keeping it open for new players not familiar with the 2d skate game’s playstyle.
Skate culture is just as much about the art as it is the sport, and OlliOlli World really embraces that with its charmingly delightful visuals and whimsical setting of giant bees, blue frogs and talking trees. Seriously, considering how often games tied to a sport push to be as realistic as possible, it’s nice to see a game based on skating that’s not just 3d scanned models of humans.
