Welcome back to the '80s.
It’s the 1980’s. The Kid needed to earn some cash to take his girlfriend out. So by delivering pirate video tapes to his customers and staying one step in front of the cops, he quickly became… The Videokid. Running the gauntlet of his bogusly dangerous delivery route, The VideoKid must survive against all the odds to reach his beloved Jessica. Is today the day he’ll finally reach her in time?
The VideoKid pays homage to the 1980s, and the classic videogames of that era. Harking back to a simpler time of pure gameplay, take control of The VideoKid as he hurls videos through the mailboxes, or windows, of his customers to earn cash. Dodge civilians, jump and grind cars and avoid the neighbourhood cops to stay alive. But this is no ordinary street… you may also encounter strangely-familiar characters from your past. How many will you spot?
Drop those videos in the red mailboxes!
The course is one long neighbourhood, with your girlfriend, Jessica, waiting for you at the end. Reach her and you’ve beaten the game… BUT the obstacles change each time, which means no ride is ever the same. Discover new references on every turn and immerse yourself in 1980s retro nostalgia – but don’t forget to stay frosty… Jessica’s waiting for you, and it’ll take all your skills and reflexes to reach her.
Warning: this game is not for the faint-hearted. You have just one life to reach your girlfriend! Continues are for losers. You’re not a loser, are you?
Experience the '80s as never before
The VideoKid is a radical skater with an array of skills you can unlock and earn. Using these tricks in quick succession will get you mad Combo Bonuses. You’ll also earn points for distance travelled and destruction caused, but to get to the top of the leaderboard, you’ll need to master it all. But remember… one wrong move and it’s Game Over dude.
Use your earnings to buy new tricks and outfits from the store. But there are no pay-to-win shortcuts here – you’ll have to earn every cent. Grab your controller and get rich the old-fashioned way.
