SK.AI.TER
-----------------------------------------------------
SK.AI.TER is an exciting third-person cyberpunk skater shooter survival game that invites players to explore an open city on a hoverboard. You'll perform cool tricks and stunts while dealing with swarms of CORPO drones. The game keeps it simple – the more tricks you do, the more points you get from drone kills, adding some strategy to the fun. It's a mix of fast action, hoverboarding, and gunplay mechanics, where the goal is to survive and create chaos as much chaos as you can.
Right now, SK.AI.TER is a playable demo that lets you cruise through Lexington City, pulling off awesome stunts and causing mayhem. In the demo, you've got 5-10 minutes to score points by doing tricks, increasing your multiplier, and taking out drones and collectables. The game ends by showing your total havoc score – it's all about having a good time and seeing how much chaos you can create.
