Dune Guide 

 Jump above the line to score, but beware! The higher you get, the harder the landing will be! Don't crash and keep it smooth!In this fast-paced arcade game, you have to propel yourself along sand dunes, gaining enough momentum to jump above the line to score points, while making sure you have enough control to stick your landing.As with most physics-based challenges in games, timing is essential, and you'll want to get a feel for it early on if you want to have the most success. Gestures are limited to holding down on your screen to speed up or to dive down, and lifting your finger from the screen when you want to release into the air. With these simple mechanics, everything comes down to timing. You hold down on the screen to get moving, and release to fling the ball into the air, but timing is perhaps the most important factor for your score.You'll want to release the ball right before it reaches the peak of a dune if you want to hop over the line.

This will take some practice, so try different timings to get your groove.As much as you want to smash your finger into your screen to get the right speed, it doesn’t matter how hard you press or where on your screen you press to get the ball moving. Get a feel for the physics and inertia by just holding down on the screen and see how the ball moves. As the game progresses, you'll need to jump higher and higher to cross that elusive line and score more points. To help you rack up as many points as possible later on, you'll need to start relying on bonus score modifiers, which can boost your score by up to four times. You get these bonuses by sticking smooth landings, and the more smooth landings you make, the bigger the bonus. Build up these multipliers for big points.As the point line moves further and further away, you’ll earn points slowly (one at a time) if you rely only on crossing the line. Earn a x2 multiplier for a “smooth landing” immediately after you’ve crossed the point line. If you get two smooth landings in a row, you’ll trigger an orange flashy comet which gives you a 4x multiplier.

You'll encounter tall dunes with sharp peaks, and rounder, gentler curves that all require a different approach. If you're looking to cross the line, you'll want to jettison yourself off of sharp peaks, while the smaller dunes can help you build momentum.Each of them have their own advantages and pitfalls, so learn what works best with each to ensure you're surviving for as long as possible.As the game progresses, you'll need to jump higher and higher to cross that elusive line and score more points.

But beware, if don’t continue to get over the line, and your landing is anything other than a smooth landing, you’ll immediately lose your multiplier. Surprisingly, there is no bonus for staying in the air for a long time, but there is a “To The Moon” bonus point if you go high enough.

Ride the desert to jump above the line. But be careful, the higher you get the harder to land it will be.

As much as you want to smash your finger into your screen to get the right speed, it doesn’t matter how hard you press or where on your screen you press to get the ball moving. Get a feel for the physics and inertia by just holding down on the screen and see how the ball moves. Even though it was purely psychological, I found myself mimicking the horizon line’s peaks and valleys to guide my ball then adding a flick at the end to send it up into the air. But ultimately, sweeping, swiping or otherwise gesturing on your screen has the same effect as keeping your thumb in one place as the ball moves.Gestures are limited to holding down on your screen to speed up or to dive down, and lifting your finger from the screen when you want to release into the air. With these simple mechanics, everything comes down to timing. Just before you reach the very top of a peak, release and you’ll head into the air, as you start to fall, aim for the next slope and dive.As the point line moves further and further away, you’ll earn points slowly (one at a time) if you rely only on crossing the line.
