Getting started as a team
Step
The game is built around multiple players, so your first move should be getting your group together. Private servers are free, which makes it easy to set up a quiet space just for your crew. Once everyone is in, spend a few minutes on the early stages to get comfortable with running, jumping, and climbing before the teacher pressure ramps up.
- Create or join a server start from the lobby and set up your team before anything else.
- Invite your friends spin up a free private server so you can play without strangers disrupting your run.
- Warm up on the easier stages get used to the movement controls, especially wall climbing and jump timing.
How the win condition actually works
SummaryUnderstanding the win condition changes how you approach every stage. You are not racing to the end alone; the whole team has to get there together. If someone falls behind, the group has not finished yet.
- Win condition every player reaches the stage goal before the teacher catches them.
- Falling sends you back to the respawn point, not to a game over screen.
- Teacher catch same result as falling: you respawn and try again.
- Stage order stages are cleared one at a time in sequence, so you cannot skip ahead.
- Retries unlimited, so repeated attempts are a normal part of the experience.
Staying ahead of the teacher
Tips
The teacher actively chases players, so pure speed is not enough — you need smart movement and map awareness.
- Move in a zigzag pattern instead of a straight line to make yourself harder to follow.
- Use jumps and wall climbs to reach higher ground and put distance between you and the teacher.
- Scope out tight corridors and corners where the teacher has trouble following.
- Stay close to your teammates — a spread-out group is much easier for the teacher to pick off one by one.
- Play each stage a few times to memorize where the safe hiding spots and shortcuts are.
What to check when your team is stuck
CheckWhen a stage feels impossible, work through this list before giving up.
- Confirm everyone is present check that no teammate has dropped out or is stuck somewhere far back.
- Look for a different route try branching paths, high ledges, or narrow side passages you have not used yet.
- Talk it out use chat to share positions and agree on who leads and who supports on the next attempt.
Dividing roles on your team
TipsAgreeing on simple roles before a run makes a noticeable difference, especially on harder stages.
- Put your fastest, most confident player at the front to scout the path and wave others through.
- Assign a patient player to hang back and guide anyone who keeps getting caught at tricky spots.

Common questions
FAQCan I play this alone?
You can enter a stage solo, but the game is designed around multiple players working together.

Getting caught sends you back to the respawn point for that stage. It is not a game over, so just get back up and try again — there is no limit on attempts.
Do I need to buy anything to finish the game?
No. The shop sells power-ups, but clearing every stage is possible without purchasing a thing. Buying something is purely optional and goes toward supporting the developers.
Are private servers really free?
Yes — private servers are free. Set one up so your friend group can practice without interference from other players.
