Tips and tricks

  • Restart early. If a run starts badly, do not grind it out; a fresh attempt costs nothing and saves your focus.
  • Learn the first thirty seconds perfectly. The opening is the same every time, so it should never be where you lose.
  • Combo systems reward patience: keep the chain alive with safe moves rather than reaching for risky bonuses.
  • 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.
  • Because this is a Clicker game, buy the cheapest upgrade that multiplies output rather than the flashiest one.
