About cheapskate
READ BEFORE YOU BUY
•
DO NOT BUY THIS GAME IF YOU EXPECT AAAthis is a solo / indie developer sharing pre-alpha early progress
•
this is not a AAA studio using "early access" as free advertising 2 weeks before release
•
DO NOT BUY THIS GAME IF YOU EXPECT A COMPLETE FINISHED PRODUCTthis pre-alpha development is being shared on early access strictly for anyone curious, I'm not asking anyone to buy this
•
this construction site is a collection of unfinished gameplay mechanics, gameplay systems, and menus with no handholding
•
if you are curious to follow early development, join in now, otherwise this game is not ready for you and you should not spend your money
•
DO NOT BUY THIS GAME IF YOU EXPECT ANALOG STICK SIM: THIS IS NOT A SIM SKATING GAMEthis game uses "classic", "arcade" "professional skateboarder" "bird last name" style input controls (can't use game and person names for reasons)
•
this game uses snappy digital trick triggering (arcade style) but attempts to keep the world realistic in dimension, speed, and jump height (sim style)
•
IF YOU BOUGHT THIS GAME AND THOUGH IT WAS GOING TO BE FINISHED OR AAA AND YOU'RE ANGRYfeel free to contact me so I can work out some kind of refund if it's past the refund period
•
you can also drop by the Discord to contact or share complaints / feedback
•
again, not trying to make money or take money from an early access, this is for curious people who want to follow updates from a solo-dev. I'm fully aware there are AAA games for under 5 dollars (that were made by entire AAA studios a decade ago but whatever, money can go far on Steam so not trying to rip anyone off here)
•
let me know if there's a more clear way to communicate all this
•
BASICALLY: DO NOT BUY THIS GAME, SERIOUSLY YOUR MONEY WOULD BE BETTER SPENT ON AAA LIVE SERVICE
IF YOU ARE STILL INTERESTED, THEN CARRY ON. OTHERWISE, THIS GAME IS PROBABLY NOT FOR YOU AND YOU SHOULD NOT SPEND MONEY ON IT. THANK YOU FOR LOOKING.
