Use the mouse to guide the marble around the obstacle course. Move left or right to keep the marble in the middle of course as much as possible. Dropping off some surfaces will not end the game, but will send you to another surface below. Shift to the sides to avoid pits and blocks that jump in your marble's path.

Grab "powers up" to get helicopters that move you from one side of the course to another. Get to high areas by jumping on springs before your marble passes them. For a higher score, collect special items such as gems while you maneuver through the course.

Tips & Warnings
Hit certain edges at high speeds to throw the marble a far distance. Roll off of elevators before they land to save time. You do not have to wait until the elevator stops every time. Use loops to throw you a far distance on the course. If you are close enough to the finish, a loop may throw you there well ahead of the clock.
Try not to run into objects at fast speeds, because it could send your marble in the opposite direction. Pay attention to where you are going. It's easy to get confused and find yourself rolling back toward the beginning of the game.
