Though I know our very own James would disagree with that statement as he loved the soundtrack.
For what it is worth, it isn’t that the music is bad as much as it feels like it doesn’t match. Music as always in my opinion is the hardest part of a game to measure for quality since music is more personal than other aspects of video games, so your mileage may vary.
I found that this is a fantastic game to play while listening to a podcast or your own music. It’s not annoying or abrasive but doesn’t seem to add much to the experience. The soundtrack is composed of easy listening electronica and soft EDM which is very relaxing and admittedly not to my taste and feels slightly at odds with the fast gameplay and colorful graphics. I wasn’t crazy about it initially, but I must say that it really grew on me, and it gives OlliOlli World a personality and sense of place the previous games really didn’t have before. It all fits the mood the development team is clearly trying to invoke and it has a silly funny air across the board.

This could have easily been a licensed game for that series with just a few minor tweaks and the inclusion of the main characters. Though there are clear allusions to cartoons like Avatar the Last Airbender, and the stories of several of the Tony Hawk games the most prevalent inspiration is Adventure Time. The art and narrative backdrop show their inspirations on their sleeves. The Gameplay is along a 2D plane but the world is fully 3D. It’s a funny, silly fiction that sets up what your narrative mission is going to be before taking you to the character creator. You are destined to follow this path and become the Skate Wizard. The Skate Wizard was established to maintain order, and is a human that has reached such a high level of skate ability and connection with the Gnar that they can be a link between the Skate Godz and mortal humans. Radlandia is a magical land founded through the power of Gnar by the Skate Godz, a mythological version of a skate crew like the Z-Boys, Shake Junt, or Tiltmode Army, who each created a region of the continent to match their personality and style. The game opens with a cinematic explaining the nature and lore of this universe. OlliOlli World has not disappointed me on either of these fronts. Let’s talk about it! No, Actually There’s Lots of FX.Īs someone who is familiar but has not played much of the previous games I went into this knowing that it was a skateboard-themed platformer and had a reputation for being fiendishly difficult. As happy a story of fan support and continued passion by the developers at Roll7 as this game is, what remains to be seen is if it lives up to the reputation of the series.

Two full games and their different editions later, we have arrived at the third and biggest game in the franchise yet.
Olliolli world soundtrack ps3#
Considering this series started as a small release for the Playstation Vita and PS3 that in a lot of ways, felt like an advanced flash game.
Even with all that, the existence of OlliOlli World is, in a way, a pretty cool realization. It was in the Olympics, we got remastered version of the first two Tony Hawk games, and they’re making another Skate game. Skateboarding seems to have made a major cultural comeback in recent years.
