Sk8Border
A pixel-art skateboarding game: ride, trick, and lay a border wall to waste. Built in PICO-8, plays on a phone too.
OUR TAKE / EDITORIAL
Why it's on the wall
A jam game with a point of view and a great title screen. Play it once on your phone in a queue.

GAME BRIEF
What's the game?
Sk8Border is a skateboarding game made in PICO-8 by three developers in Montreal over March and April 2018 for the Anti-Fascist Game Jam. You skate a side-scrolling course and, in the makers' words, lay that wall to waste. The code is GPL-3.0 and the game runs in the browser, including on phones, with downloadable builds on itch.io.
BEFORE YOU PLAY
What to expect
Short, loud, political on purpose, and over in a few minutes. Touch controls on mobile, keyboard on desktop. No AI build claim is made; it predates the AI-made wave by years and is here as an indie original.
Controls: Arrow keys to ride and jump on desktop; on-screen buttons on mobile.
