SKATE: +1 Speed

Skate +1 Speed is a skateboarding parkour game where the reward for going further is going faster. Every second on the board adds speed, so the courses get harder on their own: what was a comfortable jump at the start becomes a timing problem once the boosts have stacked up. You navigate obstacle courses, clear traps and avoid falling off the platforms, and the further you get the faster you become. Coins earned by completing levels buy upgrades, and new skateboards come with their own speed and acceleration characteristics. The levels also hide secret paths and rewards for players who look around rather than only chasing the finish. On a computer WASD or the arrow keys move, Space jumps and the right mouse button rotates the camera; on mobile, camera rotation is a swipe.

Key mechanics

• Speed rises continuously, so jump timing changes as a run goes on
