layers follow the exploits of a blue hedgehog and his vast array of humanoid-animal friends and rivals. There are multiple game modes including story, normal race, tag, and survival. Characters race on several variants of hoverboards that are powered by "air". When a player's character runs out of "air" they must hoof it on foot, claw, or whatever. There are several pit stations scattered throughout courses that allow players to refill their "air" gauge. Tricks performed on jumps also refill the "air" gauge which allow players to skip pit stops.
There are several characters available initially to play from with additional characters unlockable through achievements. Now go out and impress the pink hedgehog with your board.
