Wakeskate game ideas

So I have been thinking about making a wakeskate game since the thread a couple months ago. So I finally got some time outside of work and am going to start building a game/engine for a wakeskate game. We are working on our design of it and wanted to get everyone's input on what would make the game cool to them. So give me all ideas that you can.

Also if anybody does animation/modeling I could defintly use help in that area, so give me a pm if you are interested in working on the project.

It would be sick if you could make a wakeskate game like the skate game. Where you have to use the joystick to do all the tricks.

definitely try incorporate all forms of wakeskating jetski's etc, boat, winch, and cable. also having the pros in it is a necessary. and have some shizzle where you can unlock special thing for example: the cassette four trac as a board you can ride. or like ride behind byerlys boat also unlock thomas horrell as a person you can use. now im just rambling.... sorry i just think this will be badass.

wake to wake tricks. thatd be sick if it had a sweet angle to just pop a wake to wake 3 shuv. wakeslides would be sick to like pop on, 270 off and such

First of all, Thrasher for PS1 was my favorite game until Skate came out!

But as far as ideas for the game go, I think it would be dope to design a solid winch spot or two with a few options as to how you hit it (rails/rails/wallride/drops). Then you could just sesion a spot an get your tricks, and keep resetting to the top.

Anyways, good luck, we've been waiting for someone to take initiative on creating a new wakeskate game for a while!

That sounds so sick. One thing that would be sick is how you setup your ride. If you have a boat you would be able to setup the ballast, speed, and if it has a wedge choose the angle of that. As for like modes. If there was a free ride were you just rode around no time limit or anything. Then maybe you can go to the byerly toe jam. Build your own character and have him progress throughout the game.

the more realistic the game is, the more boring it is to play.. its true, think of every board sport game out on the market.. i mean do you remember how ridiculous Shaun Murray wake boarding was? haha .. so have fun with it !

Thanks for the good ideas guys. I am writing them all down right now. After the holidays we will get a design flushed out and I will try and publish what we are trying for the game.

dscsk8er55, thatd be tight with like different gaps like m gap, d p, metro, and what not

a story mode would be gnar as hell

make sure you incorporate skate style grinds like krooks, smiths, blunts, etc. itd be tight if you had to like unlock them
