A Look Inside OlliOlli and Roll7 [Developer Interview]

Ian Fisher writes: A bit of a departure from the skateboarding games we’re accustomed to seeing, OlliOlli goes for an approach that’s both simplistic yet complex in what is required of the player. Tricks may be done rather easily, but stringing them together and actually completing one of the many treacherous stages is where the enjoyment, and deep difficulty, derives from.

Roll7 Director/Producer Tom Hegarty sheds some light on the direction of OlliOlli and how the team approached tackling a skateboarding game in this interview with Shogun Gamer.
