Thrasher Presents Skate and Destroy

A game for fans of extreme skateboarding, prepared by Z-Axis, team specializing in sports games. The devs tried to reproduce the reality of the competitions as faithfully as possible, slightly distinguishing their design from the competitive Tony Hawk's series.

Mechanics

The basic mode is the Skate Mode, a unique career mode in which the players, as one of six fictional skaters, set off into the world. Their aim is to gain international fame, support of the sponsors, and ultimately to make their way to the cover of the prestigious "Thrasher" magazine. On each level, the athlete's task is to achieve a specific result within two minutes. At the same time, they cannot break their skateboards or get caught by the police, who appear on the arena in the last seconds of each ride. Players gain new equipment, including clothing and shoes, for subsequent achievements.

The title tries to reflect the specifics of skateboarding in a realistic way. Excessive stunts may result not only in damage to the equipment but also in injuries to the competitor, after which it is impossible to continue the ride. The players will have access to all the most popular tricks - grinds, flips and grabs.

Game modes

Next to the basic single-player mode, Skate and Destroy also enables two people to play together in a number of competitions. Among them are competitions for the longest grind, the best-scored trick, or the most painful fall. Multiplayer competition is possible on split-screen in some challenges, in others, it is based on hot seat rules.

Technical aspects

Skate and Destroy is a three-dimensional sports game adopting a specific atmosphere characteristic of extreme skateboarding, enhanced, among others, by a hip-hop soundtrack.
