00:01:00.213 --> 00:01:02.951
I know what you're thinkin'

00:01:02.975 --> 00:01:08.120
"Who is this stranger stunting in front of me on a unicycle?"

00:01:08.135 --> 00:01:11.210
and "What even IS Street Uni X?"

00:01:11.265 --> 00:01:14.724
Well, to answer your questions

00:01:14.750 --> 00:01:22.986
I'm daffodil and I'm a game developing, street unicycling, non-binary person

00:01:23.037 --> 00:01:28.281
looking to make this video game I've been working on, "Street Uni X" become a reality.

00:01:35.548 --> 00:01:39.780
Street Uni X is and aims to be a few things:

00:01:39.798 --> 00:01:44.206
It's an homage to all of your favourite pro athlete's extreme sporter games

00:01:44.292 --> 00:01:48.216
from in and around the Playstation 1 and Playstation 2 era

00:01:48.237 --> 00:01:55.004
Street Uni X represents and channels all the tropes, mechanics, aesthetic quirks,

00:01:55.028 --> 00:02:00.233
technological shortcomings, musical energy, and general attitude

00:02:00.257 --> 00:02:04.343
that made games of that era unique and memorable.

00:02:12.337 --> 00:02:16.230
I'm talking stunts, I'm talking collectables,

00:02:16.237 --> 00:02:21.241
I'm talking combos, goals, gaps, real life riders,

00:02:21.418 --> 00:02:24.931
secret areas, cheat codes, and unlockable levels.

00:02:24.987 --> 00:02:30.324
This game is going to be everything great about that era of video games with one integral twist...

00:02:30.337 --> 00:02:32.337
...It's about unicycling!

00:02:37.698 --> 00:02:44.002
So often in popular culture unicycles get painted as a punchline, as something clumsy,

00:02:44.027 --> 00:02:47.497
as something that's for clowns at children's birthday parties.

00:02:47.508 --> 00:02:52.221
But there's a whole field of street and urban trials unicycling out there

00:02:52.237 --> 00:02:56.551
with MASSIVE extreme stunt potential that I want to share with you

00:03:06.277 --> 00:03:12.092
Featuring riders from all over the world, with  skills you have to see to believe,

00:03:12.353 --> 00:03:15.752
Street Uni X aims to rekindle the intrigue

00:03:15.777 --> 00:03:20.133
that classic skateboarding and BMX video games stoked in all of us,

00:03:21.522 --> 00:03:27.334
introducing a generation to a sport and lifestyle that they were barely aware of

00:03:27.335 --> 00:03:34.347
until the moment they got home and popped that demo disc they got from their favourite pizza shop into their Playstation ones

00:03:34.367 --> 00:03:38.661
as their imaginations ran wild, and their minds were blown

00:03:45.092 --> 00:03:47.092
I hope-

00:03:47.093 --> 00:03:49.093
-oh my god Amped, come on!

00:03:52.508 --> 00:03:56.763
I hope to recapture even a fraction of that intrigue and excitement,

00:03:56.764 --> 00:04:00.483
with some added flavour thanks to the contemporary lens of nostalgia

00:04:00.491 --> 00:04:03.221
And the nuance unique to unicycling.

00:04:03.348 --> 00:04:07.406
I trust that you can see how much potential a game like this has,

00:04:07.427 --> 00:04:11.085
and I am confident I have the skills and the passion required

00:04:11.108 --> 00:04:16.422
to make it live up to the cultural legacy of the video games it's paying direct homage to

00:04:16.887 --> 00:04:20.966
