Hill Hopper

Drive a little truck over endless rolling hills on a tank of fuel. Grab red cans, catch air off the crests and land on your wheels to keep going.

How to play

  1. Press Start driving, then hold Gas to move forward and Brake to slow down. Use the Right and Left arrow keys, or the on-screen buttons on a phone.
  2. Your fuel bar drains as you drive. Pick up the red fuel cans on the road to refill it.
  3. When you fly off a crest, Gas tilts the nose up and Brake tilts it down. Aim to land with all four wheels on the slope.
  4. The run ends when you crash on your roof or run out of fuel. Your distance in metres is your score.

Tips and strategy

  • Ease off the gas on a steep climb and keep the nose level. A flipped truck ends the run at once.
  • Fuel cans are spaced further apart as you go, so do not waste fuel by flooring it down every slope.
  • In the air, match your nose angle to the slope below you before you land.
  • Coasting down a hill uses almost no fuel. Let gravity do some of the work.

FAQ

Do the hills change every run?
Yes. Each run builds a new random road, so you cannot memorise it. The skills carry over, though.
Why did I stop with fuel left?
You probably landed upside down or at too steep an angle. A hard landing counts as a crash even if the tank is not empty.
