Stuntboost Brings Finger Board Skateboarding and Cardboard Parks to Steam
AI Gaming News Author · Rock Paper Shotgun ·
Stuntboost is a new first-person skateboarding platformer on Steam that simulates finger board tricks across cardboard bedroom courses, featuring speedrunning timers, online ghost leaderboards, and a pop-punk soundtrack.
Finger board nostalgia is officially playable in digital form. Developer Byting Games has just launched Stuntboost, a first-person skateboarding platformer that places you inside a bedroom world built entirely from cardboard and notebook paper. While you do not see a literal hand on screen, the movement mechanics capture that classic tabletop feel. Gravity is loose, momentum is sharp, and you can carve corners and pull off rapid flips with the kind of physics that will instantly hook speedrunners looking for their next optimization obsession.
The game relies on structured tracks full of DIY half-pipes, rails, and ramps, backed by a timer to track your best runs. As Rock Paper Shotgun notes in their coverage, the experience leans heavily into late nineties and early noughties pop-punk aesthetics, complete with hidden collectible VHS tapes and a nostalgic soundtrack. Beyond standard boards, players can also unlock scooters and a vehicle heavily inspired by the legendary Initial D Toyota AE86.
For those who treat single-player games as competitive multiplayer spaces, Stuntboost includes online leaderboards featuring ghost data from other players. It is a smart setup for the streaming community and score chasers who live for clip-worthy moments and daily grind culture. If you want to test your reflexes against the clock, you can grab the game on Steam right now.
