Scrappy Dog

Scrappy Dog is one of those games you play 'just one more round' ten times in a row. Master the basic loop first, then start chasing the bigger multipliers and bonus rounds. Controls: One or two keys do most of the work. Spacebar to jump, arrow keys to move — that's usually enough. Tips to get better: Pay attention to visual cues — most games telegraph what's coming a half-second before it happens. Look at what the top scores on leaderboards have in common — it's usually a specific strategy. Your worst runs are usually the most educational. Note what went wrong before restarting. If you're drawn to games with a scrappy, dog flavor, Scrappy Dog hits that spot cleanly. Scrappy Dog is the kind of game you'll keep open in a tab for weeks.
