Start with the normal levels to get a feel for the game, and then progressively challenge yourself with harder levels as you improve. Stay focused on the rhythm of the music — it will often give you a hint of when to jump and when to stay still. Customize your character and vehicles to reflect your personal style, but remember that customization won’t affect your performance in the game. Don’t be afraid to use practice mode. It’s a great way to get past tough sections and refine your skills.
