Tips for Playing

- Prioritize fruit clusters that sit near the edges, where cucumbers are less likely to roll.
- Keep a steady pace; sudden stops make you an easy target for a speeding cucumber.
- Learn the spawn points of cucumbers so you can anticipate their arrival before they appear on screen.
- Use short, quick movements to adjust your position rather than long slides across the map.
