Tips and tricks

Look one step ahead of your character. Reacting to what is under you is too late; reacting to what is coming is exactly on time.
Take a short break after three or four failed runs. Arcade games punish tired eyes more than any other genre.
Find the rhythm. Most arcade games have an underlying beat — taps, jumps or moves that fall on a regular interval — and once you feel it, your accuracy jumps.
Learn the first thirty seconds perfectly. The opening is the same every time, so it should never be where you lose.
Because this is a Arcade game, restart early when a run goes wrong instead of grinding out a poor score.
