Skate City: New York is as dreamy as a week off in Manhattan
A quick look at Skate City: New York, a dreamy skating game in one of the world's great cities.
The first game took this sense of quiet urban grace to its heart, with soft beats, lots of bloom, and a selection of cities where you'd be more than willing to open an Affogato business that ran its own small-scale Zine printing house. It's a lovely system with lots of room for chaining things together, and it clips well with the kind of pseudo-2D stages Skate City delivers. There's a pastel brightness to the bloom here that makes me feel like I've just stepped out of the subway on the first day of a New York holiday, and there's that chatty calm you get in Washington Square Park just after lunch.
