Rollout Inline Launches In Early Access On Steam

MLMEDIA has launched early access for Rollout Inline, an aggressive inline skating game built by a solo developer who skates the sport.

Why it matters

A one-person simcade shipping on Steam ahead of polish is the standard path for niche extreme sports games now: the aggressive inline audience is small but starved, and early access lets the developer fund fixes from the players who already know the trick names.

Rollout Inline Launches In Early Access On Steam

The simcade mixes simulation and arcade handling, with grinds, cess slides, spins, flips, air grabs, toe and heel rolls, and handplants. Three maps are playable at launch, with challenges that level maps and unlock clothing. It is on Steam for PC at 2,350 yen, and developer Michel warns players may hit bugs and crashes.

The studio is one person. Michel built Rollout Inline around aggressive inline skating rather than skateboarding, and the trick set follows: cess slides, toe and heel rolls, handplants, air grabs. Grinds use a dual-stick control scheme, and spins can be remapped in the settings.

Three maps ship in the early access build, each with rails, vertical ramps, gaps, and pools. Challenges raise a map's level and pull in a harder set, and past levels stay replayable. Grind tricks and free spins aim for control that stays legible; a ragdoll and optional balance adjustment carry the falls.
