Tips and tricks

  • Do not tilt. After a bad round, the next one is a fresh start; the player who resets emotionally usually wins the set.
  • In shared-keyboard games, agree on who uses which keys before you start — hand collisions cause more losses than skill does.
  • Learn the controls alone for two minutes before you invite a friend. Fumbling the basics is the fastest way to lose a match you should win.
  • Be a good winner. Rematches are how multiplayer games stay fun, and nobody replays a gloater.
  • Because this is a Physics game, use momentum rather than fighting it.
