Launch date update! Wed December 3rd 2025!
Sky Skater is a minimal, chillout hover skate toy with a score attack mode to stretch your skills. Think Back to the future 2 meets Chopper from 2000A.D (yes, we're old).
Add it to your collection and be ready to soar! upstreamarcade.itch.io/sky-skater

Once you feel you've mastered your hoverboard, you can opt into a simple time based score attack. Each pickup earns you more precious seconds, how long can you last?

In Sky Skater, you get to hover board overlooking a futuristic city. We designed this game to be chilled out, but still provide ways to feel cool and perfect your line.

We're excited to share an upcoming collection of *tiny* projects - Upstream Arcade GEMS. Each 'Gem' will feature a completely different idea that we've always wanted to try. It's fun to figure new things out, and even more fun to share them with you. Stay tuned!

Here's the core functionality of the Grid Mesh Generation code. You can add and remove cubes and the mesh dynamically generates based on their relationship to one another. We're using a very simple set of meshes to test, but stay tuned for some more fun!

Here's our mesh generation working in all 3 dimensions! Lots of rotation and mirroring are used to keep the number of meshes required down (around 20 meshes). It's getting there!

Here's a little more progress on the mesh generation. It's all a bit cleaner, and now tiles can be rotated so that we get more usage out of each tile - very helpful for art.

Ad's been working away on some fun mesh/level generation code - here is some early progress with simple 2d meshes. Each square placed is visually represented by other tiles around it - it's called an 'Offset Grid'.
