Angelo Skate Away

I bought this game so you don't have to. The only reason why I even picked this up before even knowing what it was, was because I just needed another $0.25 in my Fanatical cart for a free key. This is a very poorly ported mobile game geared towards young children, or autistic adults, with attachments to the TV show from 2010 that just won't go away. It keeps coming back like a cancer. I went to IMDB to investigate and found out season 5 was in 2022 with season 6 coming on its way to 2026. The controls are clunky, they lag, and they're unresponsive half of the time (played using an Xbox series X wireless controller). There are currently 35 levels in total, but I gave up on level 17 when it became too unbearable. I can only imagine it gets worse as the levels get longer and more complicated in requiring more precise reflex actions.

Angelo Skate Away from TeamTO Games and Plug In Digital is a colorful, easygoing skateboarding game that leans heavily into accessibility and cartoon charm rather than technical depth. Built around the lively tone of the Angelo Rules! universe, it presents itself as a fast-paced, pick-up-and-play experience where the emphasis is on momentum, reflexes, and lighthearted fun rather than mastery of complex mechanics. It’s the kind of game that immediately communicates what it is within minutes, making it approachable for a wide range of players, especially younger audiences. The core gameplay revolves around forward-driven movement, where characters skate automatically while players focus on reacting to obstacles, collecting items, and executing simple tricks. This streamlined control scheme lowers the barrier to entry significantly, allowing anyone to jump in without needing to learn intricate controls. The challenge instead comes from timing and awareness, as levels introduce increasingly dense obstacles and faster pacing. There’s a satisfying rhythm to dodging hazards and grabbing collectibles, particularly in the early stages where everything feels fresh and responsive. Level des…

As good as the cartoon, so... mid.

The frame rates suck to the point of causing input lag and there is no detail configuring settings in-game. The idea of the game is okay, though it looks an awfully lot like an obstacle course. Also the minimalistic design reeks of a mobile game app design. You would have to have a really low bar for the game to like it.

its bad game tbh
