Zoom zoom zoom.

<span class="bold">TrickStyle</span>, an arcadey hoverboard racer, is available now, DRM-free on GOG.com.

It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's your next-door neighbor!
In a distant future where jobs are few and hardly necessary, people have to keep busy somehow. Some watch television, some hop on rocket-powered hoverboards and make an afternoon out of it. TrickStyle is a game where speed and style reign supreme. Here, you'll zoom along twisted, neon-laced futuristic landscapes (a pleasant change of pace from the grungy dystopian settings we're so used to), master increasingly more complex tricks, and get to play around with each hoverboard's unique physics. Beautifully animated tricks and tons of personality make TrickStyle an absolutely unique, and certainly still worth trying, classic.

Eat your heart out, pro-skaters, <span class="bold">TrickStyle</span> is in town - DRM-free on GOG.com.

tfishell: And does the game use nGlide? (Just checked the compatibility list and it was on there)

IronArcturus: As a follow-up question, does it have a Direct3D or OpenGL alternative?
We might be better off messaging Judas or somebody instead. ;-)

I played the demo of the original PC port without a glide wrapper, it should be using Direct3D natively.

Now this looks like some fun, I don't remember playing it on the dreamcast, but that was my brother's console so I didn't get as much time on it as I would like. Will have to try it out now!

For fence sitters, I say this game runs beautifully on modern pcs. Played for a little while now and it's WAY better than my memories from 15yrs ago!

I had to look up this publisher and they appear to have some weird IP's under their thumb. Unfortunately it seems the three im most interested in are Console locked (XGRA: Extreme G Racing Association, Fur Fighters: Viggos Revenge and Vexx)

I also remember playing the demo of this! Cool! It was fun from what I remember!

They got a bunch of formally-Acclaim games, I believe, including Turok.

HOLD UP, Throwback Entertainment?

Can ANYONE here confirm or deny if they are the rights holder to Metal Fatigue? I swear I heard the name Throwback somewhere trying to dig the rights up for an (unfairly) obscure game.

I don't know for Metal Fatigue but they did buy the rights of some Acclaim games.

Consider me in the "didn't know this had a PC port" camp. I still own a copy of the Dreamcast version that I assume still works, though I haven't touched it in ages.

Fun futuristic skateboarding game with a mix of racing and challenges with some nice music too. I recall this track always sounding like an expy of Gangsta's Paradise, or at least the main rhythm.

Might consider picking this up at some point, on sale maybe.

Wow, if GOG could get Metal Fatigue...

Now that was a great RTS mech game!
