TIPS & TRICKS
I highly recommend starting with easy mode and getting better at the timing and moving your way up to nightmare mode.
Notes:
The bees generally do less damage to stamper than the cactus. When you're in a tough spot, if you have to choose between taking damage from a bee or a cactus, choose the bee.
This also holds true with health packs/ packs of smokes. If you're going to collect one of these, but a cactus is coming up, just skip it. The game is never ending, however your health isn't.
Easy mode:
You take very little damage from getting hit and the health packs are consistent.
What you basically need to do is use this mode to get used to the timing of the cactus pattern. They all come at a very consistent time. Usually about 6-8 seconds apart. Knowing this, you should get a feel for when to prepare for a jump for the harder levels.
More difficult levels: These should start coming easy to you after you get good at timing in easy. Just keep in mind you have to be more cautious and you have less leeway with your health meter and health packs.
Nightmare mode:
This mode is just a bitch. Everything is 10x more glitchy. Health packs either don't work or kill you unless you're on the breaking point of losing. This mode likes to keep you in suspense. The cacti do just a moronic amount of damage, and underground bees just tear you apart.
The trick: If you have more than 70% of your health, health packs are your worst enemy. They take away 50% or more of your health leaving you stranded for the rest of the game. You're going to spend a lot of epic time collecting the packs in this mode because you need 100 packs.
Just think of the whole think in percentages. After you collect 10 packs, think "I only have 90 to go," or "I've collected 10% of what I need." When you have 25% just think "I have to do this 3 more times."
You need to know exactly when to jump and when to stay low. When you're low on health, the health packs do come in handy. Usually after you collect 50 is when you'll be pretty set.
If you have 99 packs and there's one, then a cactus, as long as you get the 100 on the screen when you die, it'll still give you the medal.
Good luck, I hope it helps.
Cool/fun easter-egg from sonik-team:
"At the game over screen (where it says retry), hit tab and it highlights the retry button, hit it again and you find the secret level button. With that highlighted, press Enter. Not that it gets any medals, it's just... fun?"
