Sky Swipe Runner game guide
Goal of the game
In Sky Swipe Runner you play with taps, swipes and drags. SWIPE LEFT/RIGHT to switch between 3 lanes, SWIPE UP (or tap) to jump over low barriers and SWIPE DOWN to slide under high bars. Big trucks block a whole lane — change lanes! Collect coins, it gets faster and faster.
Power-ups: Magnet, Shield, Double points, Star (smash everything) and Slow-mo. Arrow keys / WASD on PC.
