hovering around a 7 or 8, i thoroughly enjoyed my time with this game and it nailed the vibes and when im skating around to naganuma tunes i feel right at home and the level design is very fun to explore but theres lots of little things that drag it down or make it feel like its not enough of an evolution of the gameplay of the previous jsr games. scoring system feels kinda shallow and easy, the map needs to show way more than just graffiti spots, the different traversal styles pretty much only being used as keys to unlockables and not really serving different functions is. not great. and really i just think the jsr games had a much stronger identity which this game is obviously very derivative of. maybe an 8 is a lil too high but man skating around to some funky beats is all you need sometimes.

also more of those dream sequence worlds please those were like the best part.
