Turbo Jetrunner

### **All Turbo, no Jetrunner! Race through all six Turbocycle levels back to back to get the fastest time in the world!**

​

In this special challenge mode, get the fastest time through every Turbo Jetrunner level with no breaks in between! Careful AP management is key - turbo whenever possible, but make sure you have enough to dodge and stay on the road! If a crash slows you down, a little bit of Turbo will quickly get you back up to top speed and regenerating AP.

- Arrow keys to steer/move
- c - accelerate/shoot
- v - drift
- x - turbo/bomb
- z - brake (bike mode only)
- Enter - briefly hold to restart current level
- Backspace - briefly hold to return to the main menu

Drifting, turbo, and bombs all consume AP. To generate AP on the Turbocycle, ride at top speed. To generate AP in the Jetrunner, shoot enemies - every bullet that hits generates AP.

### **MAJOR UPDATE 6/11:**

Several fixes and QOL updates! Thanks so much to everyone who's played Turbo Jetrunner. I'm humbled by how many people have played, ashamed to have subjected so many to my cheezy guitar solo, and astounded by the high scores I've seen! The improvements are all suggestions from players. If there's anything you'd like to see fixed, changed, or added, please reach out! I can't guarantee when or if it'll be implemented, but I read and consider everything.

​

**FIXES:**

​

- Bombs now do full damage when the Jetrunner has the double shot upgrade
- Level indicator no longer increments when timing out on the Turbocycle

​

**IMPROVEMENTS:**

​

- All Turbocycle challenge mode! Try "Turbo Time Trials" and go for the fastest time across all six Turbocycle levels, back to back!
- Practice mode now lets you select a Turbocycle/Jetrunner level pair to loop through forever. Practice those tricky parts on repeat!
- Quickly restart the current level by briefly holding Backspace/Select (this will reset your score to 0) and quickly return to the main menu by briefly holding Enter/Start.
