When viral legend “Skatehorse” is tragically killed saving a child from a speeding truck, the animal goes where all horses go - straight to horse hell. Impressed with his funny skateboarding though, Devilhorse offers him an accord - if he can grind out of the bowls purgatory, he may return to Earth. Do you have what it takes to bring America’s horse home?

Stick with the grind in this punishing platformer starring a skateboarding horse! Ride, brake, jump, and flip your way through 50 brief but diabolical levels to unlock an even more gruesome difficulty.

•Between 4 and 6 hours of tortuous platforming with a bonus difficulty offering another 4 to ∞ hours to prove your mastery!

•The precise platforming control you would expect of a horse using a skateboard.

•An original theme song by Bad Mustache!

•A cute art style!

•A fun and silly story with an unlockable time trial mode for those who finish all 20 levels!

title screen song 10/10

some notes:
- I get that this is supposed to be a rage platformer with hard controls, but the way in which the horse would gain like, rotational momentum never clicked with me. I thought it was hard enough to control even without suddenly going into a tailspin for what feels like making a minor adjustment while in midair.
- PLEASE include an option to invert camera X and Y input. They're backwards from what I'm used to and it lead to me not touching the camera the entire game, which was a handicap.
- The fact that you get stuck under the bouncepads if you don't jump ahead of time, and then if you do jump you get borderline softlocked bouncing straight up and down with no lateral velocity, made me sad

very cute concept, unfortunately due to it being a rage game I made it to level 7 and got fatigued lol
