Tips and tricks
- Watch your own replays or failed attempts critically: the same mistake usually repeats three times before you notice it.
- Sound effects are feedback, not decoration. Play with the volume up at least until you know the game.
- Set a small goal per session — one level, one upgrade, one new best — and stop when you hit it. It keeps the game fun.
- Do not compare your first hour to someone's hundredth. Casual games are built to be learned in public, one small improvement at a time.
- Because this is a Endless game, consistency beats bravery — a safe lane held for a long time outscores risky bonuses.
- Because this is a Running game, look at the middle distance rather than right in front of you.
