Brisbane, Australia <\/strong><\/em>– Penny Skateboards, in collaboration with developer IV Motion, are proud to announce the release of a new and exciting iOS experience: Penny Time.<\/em> The side-scrolling action game combines a mesmerising soundtrack by hunz with unique gameplay, putting the player atop the original plastic skateboard in search of points, multipliers, tricks and secrets.<\/p>\n

Set in a post-retro game world not too far removed from suburbia, the player soon discovers that their Penny board has the ability to freeze time. You\u2019ll ollie, hippy jump and power-slide your way under, through and over frozen obstacles to victory, and choose whether you cash in your earnings along the way or risk it all by playing increasingly difficult areas for even greater points. Each of the game\u2019s unique levels feature two gameplay modes which will immerse and challenge both casual and experienced players alike.<\/p>\n

<\/strong>The 24th of May sees the release of the initial round of DLC. It features a new playable character, 2 wearable accessories and our most exciting reveal, \u2018Competition Play\u2019. The 1st round of \u2018Competition Play\u2019 will see players rival to keep their scores at the top of the leaderboards over a 2-week perio, for a chance to win one of 15 Penn Original 22\u201d skateboards.<\/p>\n
