Aim for this result
Run as far as possible before a collision. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Keep the controls in easy reach.
Follow these playing steps
- Start auto-running.
- Jump approaching obstacles.
- Land in time for the next jump.
- Restart after a collision.
Your inputs
Jump button, game-area touch or keyboard jump. Start / pause and New round are available. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
Follow the example
Jump slightly before reaching the obstacle. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Keep the controls nearby.
Watch out for this
Jumping without timing can land directly on the next obstacle. Compare the situation with the worked example. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
