L8R SK8R Demo

L8R SK8R is a 3D platformer inspired by the classics of the fifth generation but with a unique twist that will make you feel like a speedrunner. Just like those classics, new areas in the hub world are unlocked with a collection mechanic, but instead of collecting stars, crystals, or dragons, you have to collect time. When exploring the hub world, you’ll encounter time locks that hinder your progress. <video class="bb_img" autoplay muted loop playsinline poster="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3046610/extras/5cf75adc7976bfdf849e2586f1147710.poster.avif?t=1765078155" width=610 height=148 ><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3046610/extras/5cf75adc7976bfdf849e2586f1147710.webm?t=1765078155" type="video/webm; codecs=vp9"><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3046610/extras/5cf75adc7976bfdf849e2586f1147710.mp4?t=1765078155" type="video/mp4"></video> These locks will require you to collect a certain amount of time in order to be opened. Every time you beat a level, you’ll collect any time you shave off your previous best record. (Each level has a default record that it starts with. Basically a par time.) So, for example, if you need another minute to open a lock, you could go back and beat the best times in three levels by 20 seconds. Or alternatively you could shave 10 seconds off of six levels. You might even find a shortcut that lets you take a whole minute off of just one level. The choice is yours! <ul class="bb_ul"><li>Master the core movement mechanics; wall jumping, wall riding, air dashing, sliding, boosting, and of course, double jumping. <video class="bb_img" autoplay muted loop playsinline poster="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3046610/extras/5111c8e88685990a4d1c4b96343ae3c6.poster.avif?t=1765078155" width=612 height=148 ><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3046610/extras/5111c8e88685990a4d1c4b96343ae3c6.webm?t=1765078155" type="video/webm; codecs=vp9"><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3046610/extras/5111c8e88685990a4d1c4b96343ae3c6.mp4?t=1765078155" type="video/mp4"></video> </li><li>Play through 25 unique levels set across various time periods across all of history, including five boss fights. <video class="bb_img" autoplay muted loop playsinline poster="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3046610/extras/5aa547aca2f57c96876ec5c242d48af3.poster.avif?t=1765078155" width=610 height=148 ><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3046610/extras/5aa547aca2f57c96876ec5c242d48af3.webm?t=1765078155" type="video/webm; codecs=vp9"><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3046610/extras/5aa547aca2f57c96876ec5c242d48af3.mp4?t=1765078155" type="video/mp4"></video> </li><li>Defeat robotic minions, and when you do you’ll earn a boost powerup that you can use later. <video class="bb_img" autoplay muted loop playsinline poster="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3046610/extras/8b06e522ae89c161151c37d4c9de239e.poster.avif?t=1765078155" width=610 height=148 ><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3046610/extras/8b06e522ae89c161151c37d4c9de239e.webm?t=1765078155" type="video/webm; codecs=vp9"><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3046610/extras/8b06e522ae89c161151c37d4c9de239e.mp4?t=1765078155" type="video/mp4"></video> </li><li>Explore the levels to find better routes, hidden shortcuts, and collectables. <video class="bb_img" autoplay muted loop playsinline poster="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3046610/extras/002e35aa4a6060f5a3a199f2a7996fcf.poster.avif?t=1765078155" width=610 height=148 ><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3046610/extras/002e35aa4a6060f5a3a199f2a7996fcf.webm?t=1765078155" type="video/webm; codecs=vp9"><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3046610/extras/002e35aa4a6060f5a3a199f2a7996fcf.mp4?t=1765078155" type="video/mp4"></video> </li><li>Ever wanted to speedrun a game but felt too intimidated to start?
