Skaters & Gear

There are two skaters in the game, a boy and a girl. Both were sculpted by hand for Skatevex. You pick one at the start and can change your look whenever you're back at the shop.

Skater A

The boy. Every trick in the game, and a face that shows how close that last zombie got.

Skater B, the girl, in a coral tee and helmet, standing in the character creator

Skater B

The girl. A short bob that moves when she rides, and the same full set of tricks.

Character creator

Before your first run you choose your skater, a jacket, a deck and a helmet. The district went quiet last week. The skate shop is still open, and people need things moved.

Faces and hair that move

The skaters have faces that react while they ride, and they blink like real people. Their hair moves as they ride and jump.

Character creator: pick Skater A or B, then hats, tops, pants, shoes and boards

The gem shop

Gems you pick up on the streets and earn from levels are spent in the shop. There are five slots to dress, with six items in each.

  • 6×Hats
  • 6×Tops
  • 6×Pants
  • 6×Shoes
  • 6×Boards

Try it on first

Tap any item and your skater wears it straight away, so you can see it before you spend anything. Don't like it? Reset look puts your old outfit back.

Gear with stats

Every hat, top, pair of pants, pair of shoes and board has stats. The colour is style; the stats are what change your run.

Six stats

  • Speed

    Higher top speed and a stronger push.

  • Pop

    Higher ollies and more time in the air.

  • Balance

    Grinds, wallrides and manuals stay steady longer, and Flow fills faster.

  • Guard

    Less infection from each bite. With enough guard, the first bite of a run is blocked.

  • Stealth

    Zombies notice you later, so you get closer before they turn.

  • Magnet

    Pulls in gems, crates and batteries from further away.

Each level suits different gear

Every level shows the stats it likes on its brief. The starter set clears them all; the right gear makes the hard ones and the third star easier.

Every design in 3 colours

There are 50 board designs and more than 20 clothing designs, each dyed in 3 colours. The 3 colours of a design share the same stats, so you can pick the one you like. New gear unlocks as time goes on.

Helmets do more than look good

Helmets such as the Moss Helmet, Sky Helmet and Night Helmet add guard, and enough guard blocks the first bite of a run. Beanies and hoods add stealth, caps add magnet.
