Well this is a little bit different! Is this a concept you want to try and do you like the mix of genres? As always thanks for watching, liking and subscribing!
Anyone else not get all of the maps that are on other consoles on switch?
I love this game on my new switch lite
Can you change views any time? Too bad there’s no other riders. Its basically a solo time-trial game with stuff to unlock. Looks like a huge grind.
This game seems great on paper…
But it seems that at 0:36 it can be seen how the 'procedural' part of the game makes it appear empty…
Racing games should have some 'fixed' stages.
Procedual as extra at best.
Shame.
Such a good concept.
Reminds me of Downhill Domination on PS2.
How much maps are there
This genre already peaked in PS2 with Downhill Domination, ahh the memories. Descenders is a nice game though
I bought it on Switch but the graphics are just too damn ugly. Might buy it on PS4 again
Still torn whether to buy it on PS4 or Switch..it’s half the price on PS but this feels like perfect fit for a casual handheld game
I had a blast playing this on XBOX. I've never really enjoyed a biking game before, but it really sucks you in. The difficulty works just right by not forcing you to do any stunts you're not comfortable with.
The music is AWESOME too.
Enter the free code NATIONS in the redeem code section to unlock a ton of bike gear from different countries 🙂
Sad thing is this game have very low interesting content for more than 3 hours of playing. They did not listen to early access players and just do nothing with it for 2 years. Thanks, game worth 9 $.
Nothing good. Got it!
Gonna wait for a sale, but I do want to play this for sure!
Well thought heres a video I can watch without having to buy another game. Oh well…looking forward to it now.
I love the neon logo…
I've been waiting for this one for a while. Looks like it was worth the wait. Main thing was getting the performance right. This fits the portable nature of the switch really well. It's priced right too, but I might wait for a sale.
looks like a slightly watered down dave mira. I think the pixel downhill biking game might have a leg up on this (lonely mountains)
Finaly, the entire life is roguelike !
I saw a video where the guys who made this game, where just starting to make the game, it's cool to see, they did all they wanted their game to be
I have to say cheers for this review, I was a bit worried about if the Switch version could cope with it as I know it's not the most demanding game but I was expecting it'd suffer from frame issues and I'm glad I was wrong.
It's not much prettier the ps4/xb1 versions as even they have been scaled down graphically when compared to the PC one in which the forest levels are lush with trees wanting to end your many lives whereas on console it's like lumberjacks have gone crazy on it.
Great review as always man. My question is are all the bike parks included? My. Rosie, stoker, etc
Expected it to be a bit more like Downhill Domination.. Still to this date I haven't seen a game like it. Motorstorm and SSX are close but still don't get what was so cool about Downhill..
Nice review mate, the best aspect of the game is the online gameplay, I had some fun playing against other people, would like to see more gameplay modes and definitely a more versatile Tony Hawks style soundtrack, give me some Goldfinger!
Another quality review thank you 👍😊
Curious how this compares to lonely mountain downhill. Great vid!
Wow. This came as a surprise. Looks like a game that's right up my alley. It's a tad expensive though so I'll wait for a sale. Very nice review as always.
Great review, I'm in!
That construction yard took me back to the Tony hawk days. For some reason I got excited saying that. Like just wondering what kind of fun waits there.
The rogue like element is interesting for sure. Seems pretty fun.
So graphics wise, even though Lonely Mountains Downhill is low poly, it looks so much better than what's on display here. No offense to the developers but the first person POV with just the hands just doesn't look great.
I was about to press the button and pick this one up when you 10 under 10 suggested 3 or 4 other games that total about the same price… I have about £18 on my Account… decisions decisions lol 😆
do you think this is better or worse than lonely mountain downhill (I haven't watched the video yet)
