Description
About This Game
Once a vibrant hub of music, movement, and creative energy, Canvas City is now a sterilized sprawl of luxury apartments, corporate towers, and silent streets. Public art is outlawed. Music permits are impossible to obtain. Citizens drift through life, silent and uninspired. But from the cracks in the pavement, a new wave is rising.
Crews of dancers, musicians, and graffiti artists are reclaiming the streets, forming the underground league of Spark Skating and battling for territory, expression, and change. Your crew, the Fire Starters, are the newest challengers: small, scrappy, and full of potential.
Climb the ranks. Earn your following. Spark a movement.
Movement is more than positioning; it’s performance. Weave together your movement and actions as you plan how you want to navigate each characters turn. Use the city’s rails, ramps, and vertical terrain to chain together tricks mid-turn to earn Style Points that fuel your strongest abilities.
Tag spots scattered across each level aren’t just decoration - they’re targets. Tag them to claim territory and generate Style Points for your crew, but be ready to defend your mark from rival gangs aiming to wipe your name from the city walls.
Each district is claimed by a different crew with their own agenda - from corporate-sponsored squads to fame-hungry influencers and chaotic performance artists. Outsmart their tactics to demoralize your opponents, claim victory and grow your follower count!
The Fire Starters begin as a team of four and expand their roster as you progress. Every crew member has a unique style and skillset. Mix and match classes, tricks, and trinkets to create your perfect loadout for each mission.
