Control Flow : Rolling Video Game WIP
Here is a work-in-progress of Control Flow, a rollerblading Game (thanks taylornelson). Link
So there’s aggressive inline, JGR, and JSRF. but i want a roller game that is about the tricks, about foot placement, about transfers, about style. a game where control is about 2 boots on a grind. a game where the roller community decides on trick names and difficulty. a game where players can host sessions and roll with their friends in other countries. a game that can save time lapse trick sequences….
Well, i have been working as a video game artist for a while now and i have just started working on the game listed above. if i am not the only one interested in such a game, i will seriously step up development.
At this point my plan is to offer the game for free or very cheap ($5). or maybe request donations.
up : Environment collage studies
i plan to focus on smaller scale sessions - the environments i have in mind are more like where most of us roll - parks, alleys, stairways, etc.
I do not intend to simply mimic games that already exist. i want visuals and gameplay to be unique and stylish - prolly in between toon and realism - with tight skater control.
It will be more than a flash game. through my profession, i have access to a wide range of game engines and development tools - not to mention artists, engineers, sound designers, etc. while i alone am spearheading the project, i consult with my peers many times daily.
One reason i posted to this group is to tap into the energy here. shared enthusiasm will help keep me focused. i understand that some of you have doubts, but i have been making other peoples games for 8 years now - it’s time for me to make my own. More…

September 26th, 2006 at 2:33 am
it’s about fucking time. it’s impossible for me to get Rolling. i would deffnitly pay more than $5
September 26th, 2006 at 2:38 am
WOAH! please make it also work with OS X
Alot of rollers use apple :)
This is such a great idea, are you going to talk to companys and feature there skates as well?
September 26th, 2006 at 2:40 am
That sounds most fantastic
September 26th, 2006 at 2:43 am
i would pay 50 bucks for that 60 for sure…as long as you put alot of effort into it not some half assed game
September 26th, 2006 at 2:53 am
It’s funny you asked that. You should have known 99.99%of Rollerbladers would give anything for it.
September 26th, 2006 at 2:54 am
I would defintly buy it, no doubt about it!
September 26th, 2006 at 3:38 am
Without a doubt, rollers would cough at least $20 for a new rollerblading game. I’d say to go ahead and start developing/programming because if completed, you’ll have an endless number of people on the waiting list.
September 26th, 2006 at 3:42 am
work it on OS X… if not i would buy anyway i guess.
The guy that is doing this project… I would be interested in possibly putting my graphic design abilities in to maybe design the cover and back… i your interested.
Check my work on http://www.myspace.com/king_rando
to others; Please… don’t hard out add me as a friend… I’m trying not to have too many friends on there.
September 26th, 2006 at 3:47 am
yeh for sure this is a tight idea and for sure i would be willing to donate some money to that cause props on the idea and good luck with development
September 26th, 2006 at 4:10 am

September 26th, 2006 at 5:04 am

September 26th, 2006 at 5:56 am
god, ive been waiting for another inline game as soon as agressive inline came out. $5? try puttin a zero on that, many bladers would buy this fsure
September 26th, 2006 at 7:16 am
I would be real interested in seeing an in game shot… or a render of one of your skaters in a grind stance.
September 26th, 2006 at 9:36 am
that would b ace id buy it fo sho’
September 26th, 2006 at 9:39 am
$5 ? thats dope, i’ll get it fo sho!
September 26th, 2006 at 11:48 am
I hope it comes for PC!
Sounds so good there is almost none rollerblading games out there just aggressive inline and rolling.
I always hoped they would make rolling 2 but its the money that speaks…
5 bucks sounds too good to be true, but its fair!
September 26th, 2006 at 12:24 pm
Make it a bit more expensive, it doesn’t have to be that cheap, otherwise people might think of it as less valuable.
I’m really looking forward to it man!!!!
September 26th, 2006 at 1:13 pm
best idea ever
September 26th, 2006 at 2:00 pm
Want it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
September 26th, 2006 at 2:56 pm
id fukin tap that shit!
September 26th, 2006 at 4:25 pm
If i could see first screenshots or mini videos, i would be definitly willing to donate way more than 5 bucks. i am also willing to buy this game at a good price, even in the case it might be only a mini game.
September 26th, 2006 at 5:22 pm
sick
September 26th, 2006 at 5:52 pm
That game would be so tight. It would be crazy if you could customize skates and use money to buy new parts and stuff when you need them.
September 26th, 2006 at 6:26 pm
dude this is the best videogame idea ever, i completly support this, if u need any donation at all just hit me up and i will be more than happy to my email is BuniqueSk8er@aol.com ,peace
September 26th, 2006 at 8:31 pm
would it work on a mac or would it only work on a pc because i have a mac.
September 26th, 2006 at 8:40 pm
yo where can u see more details of it!
September 26th, 2006 at 8:55 pm
I’ll happily pay £30-£40 quid for a good rolling game
September 26th, 2006 at 9:01 pm
I’d definetly pay more than $5 for that. If the dude who is producing that is reading this, you should really go through with that. I’d like to see a current rolling game with actual products and stuff. Good luck!
September 26th, 2006 at 9:19 pm

September 26th, 2006 at 9:20 pm

damn i know every rollerblader will buy this game were not represented in that market except for the lame aggressive inline which didnt even name the tricks right and rolling was a good game but lacked authentisistie( bad spelling) dam man hook me up with this
September 29th, 2006 at 7:30 am
id buy it for sure. even though aggressive inline was totally lame i still play that bullshit every once in a while and skate as realistic as possible in it……it makes it a bit more entertaining that way.
