Stereo Madness

The level is an onboarding lesson disguised as a complete run. Most of the route is cube gameplay built from single spikes, short staircases, and predictable gaps. The first ship section changes the input problem: holding raises the ship and releasing lets it fall, so the goal is controlled altitude rather than a single timed jump. Treat each mode change as a new skill instead of carrying cube timing into the ship.

Make one run whose only objective is to survive the main route. Look one obstacle ahead, keep taps deliberate, and do not detour for a coin until the surrounding sequence is repeatable. When a miss repeats, restart that small pattern in Practice Mode if the playable build exposes it. The useful question is not how many attempts a first clear should take; it is which visual cue appeared before the missed input.

The official reference describes ship sequences in the early-middle and final portions of the level. In the first ship, use short corrections rather than holding continuously. In the final ship, leave attention for the alternate coin route: clear the main flight line first, then return for the narrow passage once the ending is familiar.

Secret coins are optional, but each one asks you to read a deliberate alternative rather than follow the safest line. Coin 1 tests a delayed cube route after the first ship, Coin 2 asks for a controlled staircase decision in the later cube section, and Coin 3 turns the final ship into a narrow-route exercise. Collect them one at a time instead of combining all three with a first-clear attempt.
