Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules. Keep the objective visible.
The goal to keep in mind
Travel five kilometres without losing all three lives. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Keep the controls in easy reach.
From the start of a round

A useful example
Choose an empty lane early rather than passing through a car. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Choose a deliberate next step.
Where a round can go wrong
