Skate Tribe

About

Skate Tribe is a classic arcade skateboarding game that throws you down highways, train tracks, and alien-infested cities. You collect cash while dodging obstacles that escalate from flying debris to hostile tricycles. Each level introduces a new setting and gimmick, like shooting at a giant caterpillar or surviving a mutant creature attack. The controls focus on timing jumps and grinds, with a health meter that quickly depletes when you collide with hazards. The game earns points for escalating absurdity. By the final stretch, you're navigating a beach covered in bones and a city with sunbathing skeletons and turds. While early levels stick to relatable challenges like avoiding traffic, the midgame weaponizes a skateboard against sci-fi threats. It’s a chaotic ride that leans into its 90s weirdness, balancing simple arcade action with increasingly bizarre scenarios.

Storyline

Things start off fairly easy in level 1, in which you have to grab dollar bills and avoid obstacles as you skate down a highway. In level 2, you're suddenly bombarded with flying debris. Avoid at all costs. Level 3 has you jumping from one part of a highway two another. In level 4, you grind along the rails of a train track. Futuristic cars try to ram you from behind in the mad metropolis of level 5. In level 6, you are equipped with a gun to fight some kind of giant caterpillar. An even larger mutant creature attacks in level 7 and you must survive for set a mount of time. Level 8 is a beach littered with bones and craters on which you have to evade fast-moving tricycles. The final level is a city street littered with turds, mushrooms, skeletons and, weirdly enough, sunbathing citizens. https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/games/details/161725-skate-tribe
