How to Ice Skate in Heartopia
To Ice Skate in Heartopia you need to head to the Ice Rink to the north of Onsen Mountain. When you're here, walk to the Ice Rink past the Ice Slides and step onto it. As soon as you do this, a small box will pop up asking if you want to start Ice Skarting, click the green tick to confirm you want to do this.
Once you've got your skates on, you can start using your movement controls to glide around the ice. On the right side of your screen you'll see different action buttons that will let you do special moves on the ice. Initially, there are two small ones and one larger mystery action button:
You need to click the smaller buttons to perform actions as you move around the ice to build up your combo rating. To get the best performance possible, click the next action button when you notice a yellow glow around your character on the ice.
Once you've built up your combo meter enough, the mystery action button will be filled with a special action you can pull and these are usually longer movements than rest.
When you feel confident on the Ice, and you've reached Level 16 at the Developer's Guild, you'll be able to test your skills in the Challenge Mode! To do this, enter the Ice Rink as normal and select the 'Challenge Mode' option in the upper right corner of the screen - good luck!
