Your music does more than just play in the background. It literally builds the level.
The Game Listens to You
Here’s the cool part – Skate Beats analyzes whatever song you throw at it.
Chill lo-fi? You get smooth, flowing lines. Heavy metal? Yeah good luck with that, it’s gonna be chaos. The bass hits, the city drops. That’s the whole thing.
How It Works (The Non-Boring Version)
Okay so we’re not going to get super technical because honestly Joana figures out the art side and I handle the design, and neither of us are audio engineers.
But basically:
It Detects the Beat
BPM, drops, choruses – the game figures out the song’s structure in real-time. Fast song? Fast level. Chill song? You get a breather.
Frequencies Determine Layout
High stuff = rails. Low stuff = ramps and gaps. Middle stuff = collectibles and bonuses.
It Adapts to You
Crushing it? Game gets harder. Struggling? It backs off a bit. The rubber band is real.
The City Literally Moves
Not like – “oh things shift slightly.”
No, the entire city reorganizes based on the music.
Chorus hits? Everything opens up. Huge rails, wide gaps, maximum flow. Bridge/breakdown? Tight and technical. You have to actually pay attention.
Your Playlist, Your Rules
Skate to whatever. I’m serious.
That embarrassing song from 2012 you still unironically love? Go for it. Anime openings? Absolutely. Your own music? We’d actually love to hear that.
The game doesn’t care. It just needs a beat.
It’s Not Just Random
We spent a lot of time tweaking this.
The goal wasn’t random chaos. It was intentional unpredictability. The rails and gaps end up where they should be, based on how the song actually feels.
You know when you listen to a song and you can kind of predict where the drops are?
Yeah, the level design does that too.
Flow States
Best feeling in the game:
You’re in the zone. The song peaks. The city transforms perfectly around you. You hit this massive combo and everything just… clicks.
We chase that feeling. That’s why we’re making this.
Wishlist it if you want your music library to become a skate park.
P.S. We’ve tested with a lot of genres. A lot. Your weird niche probably works fine.
