Players take on the role of a skateboarding demon made out of glass and pain, who must ollie, kickflip and grind their way through 'The Emptylands' as they take on their seemingly impossible quest.

[2] The control scheme of the game is designed to provide a realistic and intuitive skateboarding experience, with players able to perform a wide range of tricks and maneuvers.

The game has a unique take on the skateboarding genre as it is set in the Underworld where the demon will need to skate and grind their way through the ash and smoke of The Emptylands in order to consume the moon.

While skating through the nine layers of hell the demon is accompanied by an atmospheric soundtrack by Blood Cultures and John Fio, creating an immersive environment.
