• Learn to chain movements quickly in tight spaces
• Practice stopping at exact positions by releasing mid-swipe
• Master wall-sliding to avoid obstacles

Power-up Management

• Save shield power-ups for sections with multiple hazards
• Use time slowdown powers strategically in complex patterns
• Collect coins to unlock and upgrade permanent power-ups
• Don’t rely too heavily on power-ups – learn to complete levels without them

Advanced Techniques

Pattern Recognition

• Study enemy movement patterns before advancing
• Look for repeating obstacle sequences
• Identify safe zones where you can pause and plan
• Learn to predict laser and projectile timing

Speed Control

• Fast movement isn’t always the best strategy
• Take time to analyze the level layout
• Use deliberate pauses to sync with moving obstacles
• Master the rhythm of stop-and-go movement

Level-Specific Tips

For Maze-Heavy Levels

• Map out your route mentally before starting
• Look for alternative paths – the obvious route isn’t always best
• Use dead ends as temporary safe spots
• Watch for hidden passages and shortcuts

For Combat-Heavy Levels

• Prioritize eliminating immediate threats
• Use environmental hazards to your advantage
• Time your movements to avoid multiple enemies
• Create escape routes by clearing paths systematically

For Timing-Based Levels

• Study the pattern cycle of moving obstacles
• Count the timing of lasers and barriers
• Use visual cues to time your movements
• Practice the same section multiple times to perfect timing

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Strategic Errors

• Don’t rush into new areas without observing
• Avoid getting cornered by multiple threats
• Don’t waste power-ups on easily avoidable obstacles
• Never ignore coin collection – they’re crucial for upgrades

Technical Mistakes

• Imprecise swipe controls
• Panicked movements in tight spots
• Following the same failed strategy repeatedly
• Ignoring level patterns and rushing through
