Tony Hawk`s Pro Skater 3 + 4 comes packed with a generous selection of levels, featuring every stage from the original games alongside some brand-new additions like Movie Studio and Pinball. Interestingly, developer Iron Galaxy also created several additional levels—11, according to our count—which can be discovered through the Create-A-Park mode.
If you select Create-A-Park, you`ll initially see a large collection of user-created courses. To be frank, many of these are, at least currently, not particularly well-designed. Most seem focused on simply offering an easy way to unlock some of the game`s more challenging achievements and offer little else in terms of engaging gameplay. However, if you scroll further down, you will find a “Developer” section containing all the levels specifically designed by Iron Galaxy.
It`s worth noting that these developer-created stages, while lacking the visual and mechanical complexity of the main levels in Tony Hawk`s Pro Skater 3 + 4, offer a fun contrast. Their simpler design and focus can make them excellent for practicing or attempting difficult tricks. Iron Galaxy even included collectibles and goals to add some challenge, though they are generally quite easy to complete given the compact size of these unique stages.
A word of warning regarding one specific stage: “Torment Nexus.” As its name strongly implies, this level is not meant to be a pleasant experience. You`re immediately dropped into a pit filled with aggressive construction workers, who will assault you, while you are also bounced around uncontrollably on boost tiles. It`s a chaotic and painful parody, perhaps the worst possible version of Mario Kart. Seriously, wear a helmet (or maybe just avoid this level).
