A little freeware arcade game I stumbled upon recently, and I guarantee you, it'll fucking steal your time It's a kind of a race game where you have to get pass the obstacles to the finish point as fast as you can. The graphics are minimalistic (even D3 can run it!) and it's got a nice, kicking drum n' bass soundtrack, too! Well, it's actually one of the few arcade games that are really fun and demanding.

I was thinking "Man that looks familiar to a game I used to play as a kid" and then the site comes right out and says it's a remake of Sky Roads.

That youtube video makes it look kinda hard though...

Edit: I deleted it after the second level of "Classy", fuck this game and its stupid lack of air control or any sort of precise movement fffffffffffff

PS The song for the "Element" level group sounds like it's stolen from Knytt Stories

Yep, the "air control" is limited to the direction you jump in mostly, mainly by pressing the key when jumping. You have to get used to it first, it's fun afterwards though. I've done all to Red 40 now - Red 40 is hard as fuck

I loved SkyRoads and in a spur of nostalgia I decided to try this also. Turned out to have an absolutely horrible control scheme with your avatar failing a the worst possible thing: Not doing what I want it to.

yeah i got that too, it's very hard to control; the object seems to be unable to execute parallel movement functions (i.e., speed up and jump right are impossible to do at the same time).

How come I can play it

How come I can play it

i'm not saying i can't play it, i'm saying it's needlessly limited in its control.
