THE PLAYER’S FIELD GUIDE

How to play

Finish each 150-second run by following authored star routes, collecting stickers, and improving a Classic or Parade record. Use close calls to earn rewards and trigger the six-second Playtime celebration.

Your first few minutes

  1. Start a run and read ahead: prioritize visible stars while watching for parade hazards.
  2. Collect stars and stickers; use the route pattern to anticipate the next pickup instead of chasing a miss.
  3. Thread past hazards closely when safe to build close-call rewards, but protect the run from forced risks.
  4. Use the run-goal and sticker feedback to track progress, then compare the result in the separate Classic and Parade records.

No exact input mapping is stated in the supplied catalog or source delivery. Follow the browser build’s on-screen help; no keyboard, mouse, touch, or gamepad binding is assumed.

A little head start

  • Plan around the authored star line; a clean route usually beats a last-second detour for one pickup.
  • Close calls reward skill, but do not scrape every hazard when the route becomes crowded.
  • Review stickers and run goals after each attempt so the next run has a concrete target.

Before you start

  • A modern web browser with the published browser game available.
