More about this game
In Great Piggy Escape, your goal is to run as far as possible from the pursuing farm. The core loop involves timing your jumps to clear round hay bales, wide mud pits, and tall farmers. As you run, your speed gradually increases from a starting rate of 720 up to a maximum limit, making the obstacles approach much faster. The run ends immediately if your pig collides with any obstacle, recording your total distance in meters.
Tips
- The game features a 0.12-second grace period after leaving the ground, allowing you to jump slightly late if you misjudge the distance.
- Pay attention to the speed chip in the top right corner; it changes from Warming Up to Fast, and finally High Speed as you accelerate.
- Farmers are the tallest obstacles at 202 units high, and they add a 0.16-second delay to the next obstacle spawn, giving you a brief breather.
