The point of this game is to simply run to the finish line as fast as possible.
You will run across a lot of obstacles that you will have to take advantage of
in order to make it to the finish line before the time runs up. The timer is
along the bottom and actually gets rather difficult pretty quickly.
The trick is to learn which obstacles will help you and which will hurt you.
There are certain obstacles that actually help you such as the spring board or
the skateboard. There are obviously even more obstacles here to slow you down.
For more information check the obstacles section.
You will notice two different types of cans cluttered along all of the stages.
If you jump on any of them, the time will stop for a brief moment. You can pick
up the orange ones and press B at any time to give you a nice quick speed
burst. If you jump onto a blue one and quickly jump onto another one, a small
red object will appear right in front of the second can. Pick that up for
another speed burst. These will be vital the further you get into the game.
Make sure to hit all of them that you can or you won't be able to beat the
later levels, even if you never slow down.
Always try to connect beneficial obstacles. For example, in the third round,
the whole round will just be spring boards. Running through it won't let you
finish in time. So you have to jump from spring board to spring board. This is
an excellent to save as much time as possible.
In some rounds, the extra time you have accumulated will be added to the next
round. This doesn't always happen but keep it in mind. Always try to finish as
quickly as possible so it could help you in possible future rounds.
Avoiding obstacles is the most important part of this game. You should
obviously be running as quickly as possible so some obstacles may appear rather
quickly. Try to stay as close to the middle as possible so you have more
options when you run into an obstacle. If you stay along the top or bottom and
there is something blocking your path, you can only go one way. If there is
something there too, you will fall.
You will notice small rodents running around when you get a couple of stages
into the game. Don't let them touch you because they will grab onto you and
hold on. They will slow you down and the only ways to get rid of them is to
crash, bounce off the top of a barrel, or to jump off of a spring board. If
they grab you near the beginning I suggest crashing quickly unless there is a
spring board ahead. If they grab on towards the end, just keep running.
As you finish a stage, watch the finish line. You should notice by now that
there the track is five tiles wide. The highest and lowest tiles at the finish
line will be a wall so you can't go through it and you will be stuck there
until you move to the center of the track. Make sure not to run into these
because it could possibly make you lose a close race.

Round 01
____________________
This is your basic first round. Jump over a couple of barrels rolling at you
one set at a time and then jump over a couple of slip pads. Jump over the next
set of pits and use the spring board to jump over three sets of slip pads. Jump
over three more and make sure not to be in the center set of tiles. Avoid two
sets of barrels. These barrels don't come in a straight line though. The first
set will come in a "<" shape and the second set will come in a ">" shape.
Use the spring board to jump over the next set of pits and you will reach some
longer slip pads. Try to jump just before you hit them so you clear them. Just
make sure not to touch them before you jump or you'll waste even more time.
Stay along the top two sets of tiles because on the last slip pad, you will see
barrels roll toward you. There's a decent amount of time in between each barrel
and will start from the center tile and go downward. When it hits the bottom,
it come from the top again until it hits the center tile again.
____________________
Round 02
____________________
Stay in the middle set of tiles and jump over the first hurdle in your way.
Jump over a couple more hurdles and you will eventually get on a skateboard if
you stay in the middle tiles. Don't jump on the skateboard or you will get off.
Stay along the top two sets of tiles and just go right over the slip pads.
Skate right into the next skateboard along the top half for some bonus points
and keep skating over the slip pads on the top half. Try to stay on the second
highest set of tiles so you can avoid the hurdles on the top when you see them.
At the end of this set of slip pads will be two barrels rolling at you, one on
the second and one on the fourth set of tiles.
From there stay on the middle set of tiles through the next set of slip pads.
You will see two sets of hurdles on the bottom and two sets of two barrels
along the top. After the second set of barrels, move down one tile because
there will then be three sets of barrels going over the middle set of tiles.
Get back in the middle to avoid two sets of hurdls and then go on the second
lowest set of tiles to avoid hurdles. Immediately move to the center or lowest
tile from the hurdles to avoid a barrel rolling at you. Go back to the second
lowest set of tiles to avoid one more set of hurdles and skate right into the
finish line.
____________________
Round 03
____________________
In this stage, you just have to jump as you hit the spring board to reach the
furthest distance possible. You have to land on the next set of spring boards
and basically hop from spring board to spring board to the end of this round if
you want to beat it in time. I think the best way to write about this round
would be to draw a layout below. The periods (.) will be empty tiles while the
stars (*) will be the spring boards. There will also be a vent at the end of
the race right after the last spring board. You should be able to jump it even
if you mess up on the spring board. I will draw it as a V in the map below.
Also note that it isn't drawn to scale, I am simply drawing it so you know
exactly where the next spring board is.
......*.....*.....*.........*..........................

____________________
Round 04
____________________
Stay in the middle set of tiles to sneak in between some incoming barrels.
Immediately move up in the second set of tiles and jump over the vent. Quickly
move down in between the slip pads and jump over the hurdles at the bottom.
Quickly move back up in between the slow pads and you will see a rolling block
on the non-slip pads. Avoid it as best as you can. It will roll across the top
three tiles so I suggest going into the second highest tile so you have enough
time for adjustment to avoid it.
Quickly move down and go just below the pit. You will quickly see a barrel roll
at you, jump over it. Stay on this set of tiles until some slip pads get in the
way and then move to the center set of tiles. Jump over the barrels once you go
in between the two pits. Stay in the center set and jump over another set of
barrels in between a hurdle and pit. Move down to the bottom and jump over the
pit and onto the skateboard. Move up one set of tiles until you pass the
hurdle. Move to the lowest set of tiles and just keep moving to the right. You
will see a couple rolling blocks and barrels but you will avoid them on the
lowest set of tiles.
On the next set of slip pads is another skateboard in the center. Transfer onto
it if you want the points. Be careful at the end because it gets a bit tricky.
Barrels will roll at you at the end of this set of slip pads. If you have a
power drink, stay along the lowest set of tiles. Use it and jump over the
hurdle to jump over the stop pad and cross the line. If you don't have the
power drink, you won't have the speed, so move to the center set of tiles and
jump over the hurdle and then quickly over the pit as you cross the finish
line.
____________________
Round 05
____________________
Stay in the center set of tiles to avoid the barrels and jump over the vents.
Follow the path in between the slip pads downward and jump over a couple of
hurdles. I suggest slowing down for this jump because it's pretty tight and you
will most likely fall taking it too quickly. Jump over the pits and shift
upward to avoid the slip pads. Avoid the tempting spring board on the top and
go down. Jump over a couple more hurdles and shift upward for the slip pads
again. You will have a mouse jump on you which you can't really avoid. Stay in
the center set of tiles and jump over a couple of hurdles.
Move down to the second lowest set of tiles to sneak in between some barrels
and jump over a couple of hurdles. Quickly shift up to avoid the slip pads
again jump over a couple more hurdles. Move to the second lowest set of tiles
to avoid the vents and barrels. Shift upward with the slip pads. Shift downward
for some more slip pads and you will reach an open area. There will be several
barrels rolling at you here. Simply go on the second lowest set of tiles so you
will just have to jump over one barrel.
____________________
Round 06
____________________
Go in the second lowest set of tiles and jump over the pit. Slow down a bit and
you will see two barrels roll along the bottom. The second barrel will stop and
go back a little just to throw you off. If you don't slow down a little bit, it
will hit you. Get around the barrel and shift upward with the slip pads when
you reach them. This part is tricky, start in the second to lowest set of
tiles. Jump onto the only free tiles along the bottom. Jump over the next set
of slip pads and stick to the highest path you can take in this short section
as well.
Jump over the next set of slip pads and land on the center set of tiles to
avoid the barrels. Stay along the lowest set of tiles to avoid the obstacles
and move upward when the slip pads block your path. There will be barrels that
will also shift backwards here so be very careful as you move to the top of the
screen. Stay along the top to avoid the rolling blocks and quickly shift
downward to get the skateboard. Go down to the lowest tile and skate in between
the hurdles.
Move to the second highest tile and skate over the slip pads. After you pass
the lone barrel on top, move to the highest tile. After you see a long barrel
toward the bottom, shift down to the second highest set of tiles to avoid two
more barrels. Stick on this set of tiles until you see a pit. Move up to go
around it and then back down to the second highest tile after the hurdle. You
can stay on this set of tiles until the very end and avoid all hurdles and
barrels in your way.
____________________
Round 07
____________________
Stay in the middle path and go on the spring boards. Jump off of them, there
will be three. Move up one set of tiles and you will go off three more spring
boards. From there, go on the highest set of tiles for two spring boards. Move
down one tile for one more spring board. Move down to the center set of tiles
for another three spring boards. After those three, move down one set of tiles
for two spring boards and then move to the lowest set of tiles.
There will be one spring board here. While in the air, quickly move to the
second to highest set of tiles for three spring boards. Then move to the second
lowest set of tiles for one, then quickly to the center set of tiles. Go up one
set of tiles after the last spring board and then back to the center for two
more spring boards. Go to the lowest set of tiles and then back to the center
for the last two spring boards.
____________________
Round 08
____________________
Move up to the second highest set of tiles to go in between the slip pads. Jump
up to the highest set of tiles when the slip pads get in your way. Jump over
the barrel when you reach it and shift downward when the slip pads get in your
way. Follow this path while jumping over the hurdles and pits. Try to stay as
high as possible until you reach the end of the section with the slip pads.
Move down to the bottom and you will easily avoid the rolling block and
bouncing tire.
Move to the second highest set of tiles after the bouncing tire and jump
downward over the slip pads. Stay along the lowest set of tiles and jump over
the slip pads and pits in your way. Shift upwards when the slip pads force you
up. Jump over the slip pads when you reach a big section of them and move to
the bottom. Here you will quickly see two barrels rolling at you, avoid those
as well.
Stay along the lowest set of tiles after this section of slip pads and jump
over two barrels. Jump upward when you reach the end of this path. You will
then reach another strip of slip pads. Jump to the lower path and run along
here. Hop on the skateboard and stay along the top half to avoid the rolling
blocks. Jump over the two sets of pits. Stay along the center set of tiles
until you go in between two retractable walls. Shift upward to avoid the next
wall and run for the finish line.
____________________
Round 09
____________________
Run to the right along the center tiles and shift upwards when the slip pads
get in your way. Move to the second highest set of tiles when the slip pads get
in your way up here. Shift back to the highest point when you can and move
behind the first barrel you come across. Stay on the center set of tiles after
you see the three barrels and jump upwards right before you hit the slip pads.
Now just follow the path through the slip pads. Stick to the highest path and
jump over the slip pads. Jump over the pits at the end to cross the finish
line.
____________________
Round 10
____________________
Jump on the skateboard at the beginning and move to the highest set of tiles.
After you go over the second set of higher slip pads, move down a little bit to
the second highest set of tiles. Move up before the first pit and then quickly
downward to the center tiles. Move up to the highest set of tiles while still
on the skateboard once you past the highest retractable wall. Once you pass the
hurdle along the second highest set of tiles, move right behind it so you will
be on the second highest set of tiles. Just stay on this line until the end.
____________________
Round 11
____________________
This is another round that you have to take full advantage of the spring
boards. Jump over the pit blocking the first spring board and stay in the
center for two more spring boards. Move to the second lowest set of tiles for
the next spring board and then quickly to the lowest tiles for another. Move up
to the second lowest set of tiles for two more spring boards and then to the
center. Jump over the pits after the first spring board and go over the next
two. Move to the second lowest set of tiles and then to the center for the next
spring boards.
There will be two spring boards in the center, move up one set of tiles for
another spring board and then to the highest tiles. Shift downward for every
spring board from the top until you reach the middle. There will be two spring
boards in the middle, then shift downward until you reach the bottom. From here
shift upward for every spring board until you reach the second highest set of
tiles and you will see two spring boards. Move downward for the last spring
board and cross the finish line.
____________________
Round 12
____________________
Go straight down to the bottom and jump over the hurdle. Jump over the slip
pads and then the hurdle followed by the pit. Shift upward and jump over the
vent. Try to cover as much distance jumping over the slip pads over here. You
won't be able to clear it in one jump so don't worry when you slow down. Jump
over the hurdle and move to the center tiles. Avoid the rolling block. Jump
upward to cut down as much distance on the slip pads. Move upward after the
slip pads and jump over the barrels.
Jump over the stop pads and you will see a decent length of a clear area. Jump
over the pit and avoid the chess pieces. Move downward to the middle to avoid
tires and hurdles. Move to the bottom quickly after the hurdles to avoid some
barrels. Shift upward when the slip pads get in your way and jump over some
pits. Avoid the rolling block and shift downward. Shift upward when more slip
pads get in your way and jump over the pit. Jump over the hurdles and shift
downward. Now just avoid a couple of rolling blocks until you reach the finish
line.
____________________
Round 13
____________________
Stay in the middle and jump over the hurdle when you see it. When you reach the
slip pads, jump over the barrel. Move upwards when the path splits and you will
end up back in the middle. Again, shift upward and then you'll end up in the
middle again. Next split, go downard and jump over the barrels. Shift upward at
the next split and jump over the vent. Shift to the middle again and avoid a
few chess pieces. There will be a long empty area here. Jump over the barrels
in the middle when you see more slip pads. The pattern will be the same here,
take the lower path three times and then take the higher path. Run to the end
from here to finish this round.
____________________
Round 14
____________________
Stay on the center tiles and jump over the hurdle in your way. When the path
splits with slip pads, take the lower path and jump over the hurdles. Shift
downward and jump over the stop pads. Avoid the slip pads by taking the lowest
path and shift upward to avoid the barrels while jumping over the vent. Jump
over the pits and go along the higher areas to avoid the slip pads. Avoid the
retractable walls here and follow the path through the slip pads. Jump over the
hurdles at the end of the slip pads. Hop on the skateboard and go along the
very top of the stage. Skate around the hurdle when you reach it and then stick
to the top until you reach the finish line.
____________________
Round 15
____________________
This round is similar to the third round. The only difference is that it is
longer and it has vents scattered around it. I will simply draw a stage layout
the same way, however I won't include the vents since they usually don't get in
the way and you can see them coming really early. Again, just note, that this
stage is not drawn to scale.

____________________
Round 16
____________________
Move to the right and take the lower path. Move to the center path when it
splits and shift upward the wall of slip pads. Move downward through the path
and then shift back upward. Jump over the slip pads when there's a wall of
them. Move to the lowest tiles when you reach the open are and jump over the
pit when you reach it. Shift upward with the slip pads. Avoid the rolling
blocks and shift downward with the slip pads. There will be barrels rolling at
you at this shift so be careful.
Shift upward again and then keep in the middle when you reach the end of the
slip pads. Jump over the pits and avoid the chess pieces. Take the lower path
at the split in the next set of slip pads and jump over the barrels as you have
to shift upward. Hop onto the skateboard in the middle and go straight up. Stay
on the second highest platform and go over the slip pads. Avoid the first three
rolling blocks and then shift downward to avoid the last rolling block. Avoid
the vent and chess piece in the center and cross the finish line.
____________________
Round 17
____________________
Move a little downward to run around the first vent and then go back into the
middle. Jump over the vent and in between the slip pads. Take the lower path at
the split and hit the spring board to jump over the next split. Jump over the
pits in the center of the path and then take the lower path. Again, use the
spring board to get over the next set of slip pads. Quickly shift to the center
tile. Hop on the skateboard and go straight up. It's kind of tough to shift
around the hurdles along the top but it's possible.
Stick to the middle and go up after the first barrel. After the set of three
barrel, go down a bit. Shift to the very bottom and slow down to shift around
the hurdles. Stay along the bottom and skate over everything in your way. You
should jump when you see the pits so you dont get wrecked at the retractable
walls. Stay in the middle from here on out until you reach the retractable wall
in the middle. Shift around it and cross the finish line.
____________________
Round 18
____________________
Go to the right in the center path and avoid the retractable wall in the
middle. Get back to the center path after that wall. Shift up and down around
the retractable walls. Shift downward when the slip pads make you and jump over
the barrels. From there, shift up to the top when the slip pads block you.
Shift downward and upward one more time while avoiding some retractable walls.
Stick to the middle and jump over the barrels when you reach them. Shift
downward with the slip pads while avoiding the retractable walls. Jump over the
barrels as you shift upward again and stick to the middle. Jump over the vent
in your way at the end of this round and simply cross the finish line.
____________________
Round 19
____________________
Stick to the middle of the path and jump over the vents that get in your way.
After the second vent, move to the top and jump over the pit. Stay along the
higher path at the split in the slip pads. Jump downward when you reach the end
of this line and stick to the higher path. Go up again when the slip pads force
you. Try to stick to the top as much as possible and jump over the slip pads in
your way. Go along the very bottom and jump over the barrel when you reach it.
Avoid the last chess piece and cross the finish line, probably with several
rats on you.
____________________
Round 20
____________________
Go down to the lowest tiles immediately and jump over the double slip pads.
Jump over the barrel and go upward the first chance you get. Jump over a couple
of barrels as you shift upward. Jump over the slip pads as best as you can, you
won't make the whole jump. Shift downward immediately when you can and hop on
the skateboard near the bottom. Go around the vent in the middle and then go in
the middle to avoid the retractable walls. Go along the top and shift downward
when you see pits. Stay in the middle on the skateboard until you see a hurdle,
shift around it and go back in the middle. When you reach a lone vent, shift to
the very bottom and you will avoid the hurdles. Cross the finish line shortly
after.
____________________
Round 21
____________________
Go up one set of tiles and jump over the pit. Move down to the center after the
slip pads and jump over the next slip pads. Jump upward to avoid the next lower
set of slip pads. Quickly shift downward and try to jump to the lowest tiles in
that tight area. You'll likely hit the slip pads but don't worry. Jump over the
pits in the center and stay in the center. Shift upward when the path splits.
Jump over the hurdles and pits and shift to the center. Jump over these hurdles
and pits. Take the higher path and hop on the skatebard. Stay on the highest
set of tiles and skate over the slip pads. Go down at the hurdle in your way
and cross the finish line.
____________________
Round 22
____________________
Move down to the second lowest set of tiles. Jump over the slip pads here. Jump
over the hurdles and shift up and down in between the next sets of slip pads.
Move down to the bottom for the next set of slip pads and try to jump over them
as best as you can. You will hit them and slow down, but it's faster than
trying to slow down to squeeze in between the next set of slip pads. Stay along
the second lowest set of tiles for the next set of slip pads. You will have to
alternate between the second lowest and center tiles to avoid slip pads here.
Jump over the pit at the end and cross the finish line.
____________________
Round 23
____________________
Move up to the second highest set of tiles to avoid the first barrels and
vents. Three rats will grab onto you and slow you down a lot and you will see
more barrels in the middle. Try to jump and bounce off the top of one of the
barrels. Your character will look as if he's going to fall but he will keep
running. Continue down the middle and jump over the next vent in your way.
Shift downward to the second lowest tile and you will reach a large area of
slip pads. Make a big jump and shift upward to the one free block. Here, you
basically have to play hop scotch and jump to the free blocks alternating up
and down until you reach the end of the slip pads.
At the end of the slip pads, hit the spring board in the center. Bounce from
spring board to spring board, they will alternate between the highest set of
tiles and the center tiles. After the eighth spring board, shift upward or
downward to the highest or lowest set of tiles. Jump over the barrel in your
way and then over the stop pad. Avoid the bouncing enemies and jump over the
next set of stop pads and avoid the rolling blocks and tires. After those,
there will be some more bouncing enemies and chess pieces, then you should
cross the finish line.
____________________
Round 24
____________________
Stay in the middle and take the lower path when it splits. Jump over the vent
and shift back to the middle. Jump over the hurdle and the stop pads and try to
stick to the middle. Jump over the slip pad while crushing cans. Stick to the
middle path after that first pit. Jump upward one set of tiles as you reach the
first vent in your way. Follow the path through the slip pads until you reach
the split in them. Take the lower split and jump off the spring board.
Immediately jump over the hurdle and then the vent. Jump over a few barrels and
shift upwards when slip pads get in your way. After the slip pads, shift to the
very bottom. The rats will hop onto you after bouncing around a lot. Jump and
try to land on the barrels that come at you to shake the rats off. Shift up and
down with the slip pads while jumping over the obvious. Stick to the highest
path to avoid the tire and pits until you reach the end.
____________________
Round 25
____________________
Shift upward to avoid the first vent in the center. Jump onto the can behind
that vent to stop the time and then shift upward again. Now you just have to
run straight for the finish line in this very simple stage.
____________________
Round 26
____________________
Shift up and down through the slip pads to touch them as little as possible.
After you see the barrel move along the top, there will be a free square in the
center of the slip pads so jump on that to save some time. You will see some
rats grab onto you, try to jump and hit the top of the retractable walls to
shake them off. Shift up and down through the set of slip pads to get onto the
free tiles as you make your way for the end.
____________________
Round 27
____________________
Stay in the middle path and jump over the vent. Each split will be the same in
this area. There will be either tires or barrels in each path which gets
annoying. I suggest taking the lower paths since they appear a second later.
Just keep doing that until you reach the end of this slip path area. Stick to
the middle when you get out. Move around the pit in the center and then quickly
move behind it to avoid the next set of pits. Shift downward and alternate
between the second lowest and center tiles to avoid the slip pads. Take either
path at the next split. At the next split, take the higher path. Avoid the last
three chess pieces one at a time and cross the finish line.
____________________
Round 28
____________________
Stay along the lowest path for the first split. Go up the first chance you get
in this path. Jump over the wall of slip pads when you reach them and take the
lower path again. Jump upward when you reach the end of this path and shift
downward to accomodate to the slip pads. Avoid the retractable walls and
hurdles. Jump over the next set of slip pads and take the lowest path. Shift
upward the first chance you get. Jump over the slip pads when you reach the end
and jump over the hurdles. Stay along the lowest set of tiles and jump over the
most tiles you can.
____________________
Round 29
____________________
Shift upward one set of tiles and jump onto the can when you reach it. Jump
down onto the lower path and onto that can. Jump upward again to crush one more
can and move all the way up to the top. Jump on a rolling block to get the rat
off and shift downward with the slip pads. Shift downward and upward to avoid
the slip pads. Stay along the top and jump off this spring board. Move to the
center while in the air to bounce off two more spring boards. Shift to the top
in the air and land on the next spring board.
Again, shift to the middle in the air for another spring board. Go to the top
for the next spring board and then back in the middle all while in the air.
Shift to the second highest tile for the next two spring boards. A rat will
jump on you, bounce off the top of the first rolling block you see to shake it
off. From here, just go on the second highest set of tiles to avoid all of the
vents and rolling blocks until you cross the finish line.
____________________
Round 30
____________________
Run to the right along the center tiles and jump on the first can. Move to the
bottom set of tiles immediately to jump onto the next can. Move up to the
second lowest set of tiles for the third can and stay here to avoid the
barrels. Jump on the next can on these tiles when you see it and immediately
shift to the center to avoid the barrel. Jump onto the can in the center and
just run for the end in this incredibly short track.
____________________
Round 31
____________________
Move up to the second lowest set of tiles and jump over the slip pads and
hurdles in your way. After you clear the set of hurdles, move to the bottom and
continue to jump over the slip pads. Jump over the barrel next to the pit and
then jump over the slip pads. Shift upward and jump over the slip pads when you
reach them. Hop on the skateboard in the center when you can go downward again.
Move upward and shift around the hurdles.
Avoid the chess piece and go along the second highest set of tiles while
skating over the slip pads. Avoid three chess pieces after the barrels. Move to
the very bottom while avoiding them to avoid the hurdles and pits. You will see
two barrels roll along the middle, quickly shift behind them after they pass to
avoid the two barrels along the lowest tiles. From there, move to the very top
of the area and just skate to the finish line.
____________________
Round 32
____________________
Stay in the middle path to grab the drink and jump off the spring board. Use
the power drink and jump onto the can when you reach it. Shift to the second
highest set of tiles to avoid the walls. Grab the power drink in the center
when you reach it. Shift to the second highest set of tiles again and use the
power drink. Crush the can on the top tiles when you reach it to stop the
clock.
Shift to the second lowest set of tiles and run in between the pits and vents.
Crush the can on the bottom when you reach it to stop the clock again. Shift
upward to the second lowest tile to avoid the next pit and go to the middle.
Pick up the power drink and jump off the spring board. Use the power drink when
you land. Avoid the rolling block and run for the finish line.
*Please Note - After you complete Round 32, you will see a brief ending to the
game. After that, you will restart from Round 01.

This section, I will simply list all of the obstacles in the game, what they
do, and how to avoid them.
Barrel The barrels will roll from the right side of the screen to
the left. You should be able to easily jump over these.
Slip Pads These will appear as a light green/yellowish color. They
will slow you down if you touch them. It depends on the
level, if they are just one block long, then jump over them.
If they are very long, try running around them. If they are
too long, there will always be a path or a spring board.
Spring Board These look like the small tramoplines that gymnasts use to
jump onto that bar. They will make you jump into the air. If
you press the jump button as you go on it, you will jump
much further.
Pit These appear to be the same color as the slip pads. They
just have a small outline around them which allows you to
tell the difference from the slip pads. If you hit these,
you will fall and take a couple of seconds to get back up.
Hurdle These are pretty obvious. If you hit these, you will fall.
Simply jump over these to avoid them.
Vent The vent will be a white block with several small squares in
it. It will launch you straight into the air but unlike the
spring board, you will fall when you land so just run around
them.
Skateboard You can jump onto these and ride them for some extra speed.
They are nice because you can ride over slip pads with
these. You will fall off if you jump or crash into
something.
Rolling Block These will roll up and down along the quicker paths. They
will be a red 3 dimensional block that you have to run
around.
Tire These will bounce up and down from the right to the left of
the screen. You can sneak under them if your timing is right
but I suggest running around them.
Retracting Walls These will move up and down out of the ground. If they are
up you will crash into them. If they are down you can jump
over them. I suggest running around them.
Stop Pads These look just like the slip pads except they have a white
line across them. They are a pain in the butt because if you
touch them you will stop completely. You can move up or down
but you can't run or jump through them once you touch them.
Try your best to jump over them so you don't have to waste
your time.
Chess Pieces You will notice a couple of chess pieces throughout the
game. They actually make the same movements as they should.
The rooks will move in a straight line, knights will movein
that "L" shape, etc.
Bouncing Blocks You will first see these in round 16, I'm not sure what else
to name it since they don't resemble anything. They will
simply bounce around trying to hit you. If they hit you,
they will bounce off the screen.
