Collect power ups on your way to increase time and gain new abilities.\r\nWhite power ups - +10 seconds, cyan power ups - gain abilities.\r\nAbilities are random and you might need to get several cyan power ups before you get any effect.\r\n \r\nAbilities are: leave a trail, make sparks, double and triple jump, gliding (hold to glide) and teleport (touch left side to quickly go down).\r\n\r\nI hope you will like it. If you played Canabalt before - be sure to try my game! It is much more generous - it lets you climb up a platform even if you missed it.\r\n\r\nThe game gets harder after 1000 mark. And around 5000 it gets pretty challenging!\r\n\r\nPrimary target platforms - Android and iOS. But the game can be played on Windows and Mac, however you would have to install Corona SDK (http:\/\/coronalabs.com).\r\n\r\nHOW TO RUN ON WINDOWS AND MAC OS:\r\n\r\nFirst you need to run Corona SDK. For Mac it's an executable, for Win it's an installer\r\nWhen you open Corona, go to \"File\" menu and select \"Open\" (Top Left corner). Choose the \"CubicRunLD\" directory from the archive and click \"Open\". Choose \"main.lua\" file and again click \"Open\".\r\nYou can change the resolution in \"Window -> View as\" menu. Best played in Ouya 1080p or 720p.\r\n\r\nAlso please install the font GlasnostDemibold.ttf, it is the directory with the game's source.\r\n\r\nSorry for inconvenience.\r\n\r\nMade with Corona SDK.\r\n\r\nMUSIC\r\n\r\nI didn't make a music for it, but it sure plays much better with some groovy music!\r\nI can't submit for Compo with music included, therefore if you want to play with music please visit my site:\r\n\r\nhttp:\/\/spiralcodestudio.com\/?page_id=38\r\n\r\nThank you guys!\r\nYou are awesome!","title":"Cubic Run"}
