Regarding the game, let me tell you about the main things.
In the game, you have no multiple lives but a single. If you got hit by any obstacle just once, your game will end. So be very sure that you don’t touch them. Various kinds of obstacle are present in the game ranging from mere thorns to moving platforms. You also have to avoid the corners of the platforms. One more thing about the game, if your game ends at some time, it would start again immediately without any pause.
Controls and scoring
As you begin the game, the ball you have chosen will start moving by itself. You just have to control the bouncing of the ball. Just a hit on the Space bar key of the keyboard will bounce the ball. Your score will be given on the basis of the distance you have moved. It would be shown on the top left side of the game’s interface. Here the score you have earned will keep on adding to the next level’s score. It means, supposedly you have made 20000 points in first level, then in the second level your score will start from 20001.
Pause the game
The option to pause the game is also present in the game. It is available on the top right side of the game’s interface. Your score will be preserved.
