Tips for Beginners

  • Do not rush the first attempt; learn movement, timing, and obstacle behavior before chasing a high score.
  • Watch enemy movement, track curves, or hazard timing for a few seconds before committing to aggressive moves.
  • Short retries are part of the loop, so treat early mistakes as practice instead of failure.
