Hold space while Ollieing to kick flip. Hold down arrow above rails to land on them and grind. Smiley faces can only be captured with a kick flip.
How to Play
This game is very much about getting the rhythm in order to beat some of the advanced levels. The mechanic allows you to gain a good boos of speed by holding crouch (down arrow) while rolling down hill. Also this mechanic allows you to gain a great deal of speed by holding crouch (down arrow) while rolling through a group of small bumps in a row. However there is a cool down on crouching so you can not hold crouch for too long or you will slow to a stop.
all up hill will slow you a bit so in some cases it will be in your best interest to try to air over the up before using it launch.

I have the same problem as Kaibo. I have no problems with frame rate, The game doesn't play choppy. But I am unable to do better than about 70% of max speed, even after trying dozens of times.
you might be trying to push when all you need to do is hold crouch. Try getting some good speed with a push then after the initial speed, just try to hold crouch during the orange parts of the course. after a certain speed, you don' t need to tap space bar any more. Only hold down arrow at the right times.

I can't beat the second stage. I tap space repeatedly when it says to and i hold the down arrow on the orange. I cannot imagine maximizing my time on each any better. I never get to max speed.
Hi, sorry you're having trouble. Are you getting a bad frame rate? Does the game play pretty choppy? If the game doesn't play really smooth, it can greatly effect the physics and you'll be unable to pass some areas. Again, sorry for this.

Nathansisler. I believe you should question the game rather than ALL the commenters. They all mention that it is too difficult but you just can't believe anyone?
I thought that's what I was doing?

Ok tutorial level 2 and 3 are just too tough, the game is playing about twice the speed it should be!
Hmm, sorry to hear you're having trouble. When the game is running smooth is can play pretty fast. Are you sure it's playing too fast? were you able to pass those tutorial levels?

I think the animations are too fast. It would be more fun if it was more realistic. The character feels like it has no weight at all. Sudden speed spikes feels weird and makes it hard to have fun. The art theme and the game concept is really fun looking, and I would love to play it to the end, yet the controls, speeding, jumping etc. should be redesigned, in my opinion.
In the tutorial stages I was able to pass them only by cheating. Standing on a single red platform and pretending to be doing what is told.
Thanks, I'll work on adding adjusting the game based on your feedback.
