The more complex tricks, like a laserflip’s left-to-down-half-circle command, earn more points but are naturally tougher to pull off consistently.Īlmost every stick turn is attached to a different move, which means that pulling off any trick can feel like mashing directions, and since tricks are easy to pull off individually, OlliOlli focuses on variety. Flicking the stick straight up performs an ollie, flicking to the right pulls off a kickflip and the left a heelflip. You pull off tricks through motions on the left analogue stick (or d-pad), similar to moves in Street Fighter. OlliOlli ’s controls are the highlight, however – still wonderfully intuitive years after release. Your little skater dude is fragile and is wrecked by most falls, necessitating a (painless) restart. You skate from left to right across its fixed, intricate levels, pulling off tricks to complete level objectives or beat high scores. Set on a side-scroller 2D plane, OlliOlli is a skating game that plays somewhere between Tony Hawk Pro Skater and endless runner Canabalt. They’re as impressive as they were back at release but now, with the Switch-only bundle (if you couldn’t tell by the title), the original OlliOlli and OlliOlli2: Welcome to Olliwood have found their best home yet. Released barely a year apart, both OlliOlli titles are completely distinct, with their own identities that go beyond surface-level differences and reach down into the roots of the gameplay.
Although they’re built with the same bones, the two games included in Roll7’s OlliOlli: Switch Stance are – remarkably – very different beasts.
