  • Upgrades
    • Upgrades come in two flavors: cosmetic and performance.
    • We recommend going for performance upgrades first.
      • Focus on improving a character’s weakest stats first.
      • The stat upgrades have a ramping cost. Be sure to choose characters with higher stats to reduce the cost of bolstering your upgrades. Default character stats are published below.
  • Power ups
    • The game has 3 power ups
      • Coin magnet: attracts the coins to you without getting near them. This is the most important power up as it not only attracts coins but also attracts the other power ups when you pass them.
      • Lighting: fires a lightning bolt at an opponent in front of you, stopping them dead in their tracks. This upgrade can be frustrating because you often end up crashing into the stopped scooter, giving them a boost of speed while slowing you down to a stop.
      • Fire: Gives you a boost in speed. This is a great upgrade, but be careful collecting it going around a corner.
  • Tips and tricks
    • Steering is the most important stat in this game.
      • Crashes are the most frustrating part of this race.
        • Hitting into walls will slow you down to a near stop.
        • Hitting other characters will slow you down to a complete stop & sometimes they turn to try to hit you, so it is best to try to stay away from them.
          • Try to keep a broad distance between you and them, and if you pass them on a corner try to be on the inside of them (if you are on the inside and are turning full force they likely won’t be able to hit you & if you are outside of them and they swerve out at you and you have to let up your turn to avoid them you will likely crash into the outside wall).
          • The best spot to pass opponents is either on straightaways or when you have an extra boost of speed from jumping a ramp or collecting a power up.
      • The character with the best chance of winning is the one with the best steering stat.
        • Of the default characters, Anais, Gumball, and Apple have the best steering stats.
    • Spend most of your early races collecting coins over attempting to win. Placing well can earn you additional coins, but upgrading is vital to competing across all 5 races.
    • Keep to the middle of the track to avoid collisions. Try to pass competing racers inside of them on corners, or after hitting a turbo or jumping over a ramp that gives you a bit more speed.
• Target Audience
  • The game is suited for skater and scooter fans of all ages.
  • The game has no adult themed content.
