How I learned to Skate
About
"This is a story about how I learned to skate. It was hard..."
How I learned to Skate is a desperately difficult ice-skating challenge about a boy learning to skate for the first time, following an increasingly burdensome path, chasing after the girl he could never have.
Control individual legs and body tilt to move the ice-skater with a mouse or a controller. It's simple.
This game is all about learning and mastering a new unique mechanic.
