“You’re a demon made of glass and pain” has to be one of the hardest taglines there’s ever been for a videogame. Now that Skate Story has a December 8 release date<\/a> and approximately hour-long demo, we’ve found out there’s an addendum to that sick as hell pitch: “And you’re on a quest to eat the Moon.”<\/p>\n

Skate Story is a game that has periodically poked its head out over the past few years to say, “This is still happening, here’s an absolutely incredible-looking trailer with killer music.” There is nothing else out there that looks like Skate Story: Its marble columns and greek statuary poking out of surreal dreamscapes are very vaporwave, but there’s so much else going on that makes it distinct from other abstract, crunchy works of surrealism like Hyper Demon<\/a>. This is a rare game that leverages 3D graphics being untethered from reality to show you things that are breathtakingly, impossibly beautiful.<\/p>\n
