Two weeks ago, there was this thread here, where someone in the replies mentioned Tricky Madness, it was the first time I heard about it, and I'm surprised I never heard about it sooner:
I waited two weeks before trying it, because I wanted to wait until the new big update came out, two days ago.
I have now been playing it for two days, and it's... just amazing.
If you're into the extreme sport arcade of the 2000s, if you love Tony Hawk and SSX, this is exactly what we want. I've been waiting for 13 years (the last SSX was in 2012) to get something like this again. There have been many skateboarding and snowboarding games, both indies and AAA, but none of them ever managed to get a gameplay this fun and tight.
It's in early access, there isn't a lot of content yet (2 characters, 3 maps, 3 game modes), but the gameplay itself is already pretty much perfect outside of a few minor things that will most likely get fixed in the future. This is already one of the best gameplays I have played in this genre. It's very similar to SSX, but with a few twists, the boost system for example works very differently.

If you want to see more gameplay, here's a combo video I did yesterday after practicing for a few hours :
I usually avoid early access, but I did an exception here because I had to support this, and I'm already having ton of fun.
I really hope the future of this game will be great.
From what I gathered, online multiplayer is something the dev wants to do in the future, as well as a single player campaign with an open mountain / connected tracks like in SSX 3.
This is obviously all far out in the future, if it happens, but so far the base is already very solid and I'm excited to see more stuff.
I'm just really happy that a project like this exists, because I've been so hungry for something like that, for so long. It's a genre that just completely disappeared.

Early access but made by an SSX fan. Next update will supposedly release in two weeks.
