Just a couple of tips:

- You can jump again after doing a "rainbow attack" (a dash) so it's possible to go a rather large distance without ever touching the ground this way, by alternating between a jump and a rainbow attack.

- When in doubt, just do a rainbow attack. Worst case scenario you blow up; best case scenario, you survive. This is actually no different than if you didn't do the rainbow attack, but I can't tell you how many times the rainbow attack has saved me.

BTW, I think that the longer you hold jump button, the longer jump is. Am I correct?

This is very true when you reach higher speeds, if a cliff suddenly appears in front of you then you're screwed either way. So this is actually the safer way.

Yes :)

Another tip is that you can get "combat multipliers" for "combos".

That is if you can collect all the faeries/stars in a row without missing any then you will get more points for each one. The multipliers are separate for the faeries and the stars. The multiplier (for that item) gets reset whenever you miss one.

The faeries start out at 10 points and the stars at 100. The multiplier is just how many you've collected without missing any. So if you can collect 20 stars in a row without missing any, that's 2000 points for hitting one star. ;)

I wish it wouldn't lag. It's a bit annoying.
Otherwise it's a funny little game. Feels like flying, lol.
My max score's 78554. Could've been better if I hadn't lost my last life at the beginning of the level, practically. But I'm too sleepy to start all over now.
Hmm..it's kinda steep. But with a sled I can slide down the slope.

Indeed... also, the faster the game gets the more ground your jumps cover.

Chassing the stars is the trick to high scores... Only it gets difficult when jumping that the program assumes you'll take the high ground, instead of the low pass and you go back to 100Q :(
