Are you ready for The Videokid challenge?
Test your skills to the max with this fun & challenging arcade style skate game set in a retro 1980s neighbourhood filled with danger...
Skate, hitch and grind your way through hazardous streets; dodging 80s bikes, cars, trucks, trains & more. The Videokid is jam packed with 80s nostalgia. Relive classic moments of all your favourite movie, tv and cartoon characters and remember... the further you get the more epic the references become!
"What a wonderful game this is - an exacting arcade treat shot through with 80s childhood memories." Christian Donlan, Eurogamer
"You’ll find that The VIDEOKID throws in every nostalgic thing you loved about the 80s into an 8-bit fast-paced Paperboy-esque gaming experience. Plug in your walkman and lace up your Reebok Pumps..." Niko & Dawn, Indiewatch
"It's like PaperBoy on 80s steroids"
"An awesome trip down memorylane!"
The goal is simple: Avoid being busted by the cops, pull off sick tricks and complete crazy combos to earn bonuses; all whilst trying to stay alive just long enough to deliver your pirate video round and get to your girl in time! From retro arcade style sound effects, to the incredible 8bit inspired soundtrack (written by DJ Savant) the Videokid pays pure homage to your favourite games of the golden era.
