Tips and tricks
- Aim for consistency before you aim for records. A steady run that avoids mistakes usually scores higher than a flashy one that ends early.
- 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.
- Combo systems reward patience: keep the chain alive with safe moves rather than reaching for risky bonuses.
- Take a short break after three or four failed runs. Arcade games punish tired eyes more than any other genre.
- Because this is a Jumping game, watch the landing spot, not your character.
