Tips and tricks
- If there is a dash, jump or dodge move, treat it as a resource: use it to escape, not to attack, until you know the level.
- When you die, note exactly what killed you. The answer is usually one specific pattern, and fixing that one thing is worth more than "trying harder".
- Do not chase every bonus. Collectibles placed near danger are a trade-off the designer set for you; take them only when your position is safe.
- Learn the enemy or obstacle patterns before you try to go fast — most action games repeat a handful of behaviours, and once you recognise them the game slows down in your head.
- Because this is a Strategy game, economy first, power later.
- Because this is a Cooking game, start the slowest item first so everything finishes together.
