I managed with a touchpad, but it's much easier with a mouse. The goal of this game is to dodge the ice cream scoops (each normal scoop is 5 points when they pass the top of the screen and scoops with sauce on them give you 10 points), but to beat AAA's score, you must collect the bonus for more points because with just the level beat, you have to finish the second to last level, the Rainbow Scoops (Level 12) and you can see how hard the Chocolate Chip Scoops (Level 10) is. **Note that getting this bonuses will reset your speed/size bonuses So bonuses that award you points is something you should strive for, so get those Fish** (250 pts), Cherry** (100 pts), and so-rare-I've-never-seen-it, the-Scoop-With-The-Creator's-Face** (TPOSG Scoop) (1000 pts) whenever it's not painfully dangerous and you think you can make it. Then is the light pink Heart Scoop**. This is an extra life, so whenever it's not painfully dangerous and you think you can make it, always get it. However, if you have 1 life left and a scoop is right behind that extra life scoop and you hear the sound of getting the extra life scoop right before you get it by the ice cream scoop behind it...you'll game over instead of getting the extra life, so don't do that. Third is the Silver Shield Scoop**. This will protect you for 5 seconds, so I personally wait until it is close to the time to get it so I use that 5 seconds of protection to it's fullest. When the shield goes from a blue bubble to a red bubble, it's about to disappear, so get ready for it. Fourth is the Small-Chia-Inside-A-Purple-Scoop, the Shrinking Scoop! This scoop will shrink you down so that you can fit into smaller gaps. Go for it whenever it's safe to! So for the last three, it's kind of up to you. In this video, I avoided Cherry Bomb Scoops** (the scoop with a lit fuse on it), since they not only reset your size/speed bonuses, they clear the board for you, so only if you're about to get scoop mobbed into a corner or there are no Scoops with Sauce on them and you want more points. Lastly, the Speed Bonuses. In this video, I went for the Green + Speed Scoop. That's because I wanted the scoops to pass by faster and the faster they are, the better my reflexes are (and I read somewhere that getting Speed-Up Scoops increase your points per scoop). If you want it to be slower, get the Red - Speed Scoop, however, do note that they also decrease your points per scoop by one level as well as decrease speed. The only bonus that you want to avoid at all costs unless you will die if you don't run through it is the Giant-Chia-In-A-Blue-Scoop or the Super-Size Scoop! This will cause you to get bigger and make it harder to dodge. Obviously, you don't want this. Avoid at all costs! HINT: In the game window, type 'strawberryvanillachocolate' during level breaks for an extra life once per game.
