Various Tips
The first level is unusually difficult. You will fail a lot, but it is a great way to improve your skills and get a feel for the game's mechanics.
When you need to make a smaller jump, use tight tuck instead of a jackknife tuck. The latter should be used mainly for longer jumps.
The free play mode is great for practice. You won't get points, but you will learn how to maneuver your character.
In the free mode, you can practice jumping from various points by tapping the arrow in the top-left corner of the screen. It will move your character to a different point, so you can practice various jumps.
In the free play mode, you can turn on the lunar gravity mode by tapping the screen 5 times.
Again in the free mode, you can drag your character around the level. Simply touch the character, hold and start dragging. You can do this only after a failed attempt. This does not apply only to the main character. You can also drag around all of the objects.
Some users say that when you die you can just tap the button which changes your position and you will be given another chance.
