How To Play
Race The Route, Master The Rope

Using The Ninja Rope
- FirePoint toward a ceiling, wall, or ledge and tap Space. If the shot finds an anchor, it latches and starts pulling your movement into an arc.
- Release Or RefireTap Space again to detach. If your angle is wrong, tap to release and immediately fire at a cleaner anchor.
- Retract / ExtendUse W/S or Up/Down while attached to shorten or lengthen the rope. Shortening can tighten a turn; extending can soften a bad swing or reach the next line.
- PumpPress movement keys in the direction of your swing to add speed. Tiny corrections usually beat frantic key mashing.
- ReleaseLet go while your body is pointed at the next coin, platform, or anchor. Good releases feel early at first; giant arcs often waste time.
Route Rules
- Coins FirstThe finish only counts after every map coin is collected. Coins are route markers as much as score objects.
- Portal FinishThe checkered portal is the finish gate. Enter it with all coins collected to lock in your time.
- Pit RecoveryIn Versus, pit falls reset you to the start while the timer keeps running.
Modes
- PracticeFree-run the official route, learn anchor points, rehearse coin lines, and chase a better local best without risking ELO.
- VersusMatch against an async ghost. You are racing their recorded run, so every clean save and tighter release matters.
Beginner: aim for safe anchors and clean coin collection before chasing speed.
Intermediate: release before the swing peaks so your speed carries forward instead of upward.
Advanced: use short refires and quick rope retracts to correct bad angles without killing all your momentum.
