SkateBIRD is hitting its release date this week, and the indie sandbox skating game will be bringing us a new avian twist to the genre.

SkateBIRD Release Date: September 16, 2021

Published by Glass Bottom Games, the official SkateBIRD Steam page describes it as the following:

“You're a lonely lil' bird, and your Big Friend has hung up their board for good. Their job sucks, and lately, they're barely ever home to play with you. You're gonna fix all that with the power of being a chill little skateboarding bird. You may be tiny, but the more you skate, the more friends you’ll make. Birds will come check out your park, help you find more parks, and together you'll (somehow) fix Big Friend's life! Above all else, skate birds try their best.”
