In-game descriptions

 * Race to the finish!


 * Description
 * Avoid the moving doors and race to the finish line!

Standard version
Gate Crash is a race course.

Gate Crash consists of overcoming rows of moving (up and down) gates, making it basically only a right timing game. As the game gets to its finish rows, the gates gradually move faster and with a harder logic. To add more difficulty to the course, before the rows of gates, moving obstacles are added. The final section consists of a big slime downhill, followed by a right timing jump into the gate that is now down. The gates move really slow and they always alternate (the first and the last goes down while the central one goes up, and then the opposite happens). If the player has bad timing and crashes into a uppered gate, the respawn point is just before the slime downhill. Overcoming the last row will lead to the finish line.

Alternate version
From the 2020-09-15 Season 1 mid-season update, these variants can occur instead of the standard one:


 * The final row of gates' movement (the ones after the slime downhill) changes, making them go up this time in a more precise order.
 * For the rest of the rows of gates, all of them may have their movement order and movement speed changed from the standard version

From the 2020-11-10 Season 2 mid-season update, this variant can occur instead of the other ones:


 * Two more moving donut bumper towers have been added after the rows of gates which bring to the final downhill.

Strategies
The strategies of this game are all about right timing. If a door is up, it will surely come down, so sometimes it's better to wait a second that it comes down instead of going to the nearest gate, because it may cause the player to never manage to get away from a row. Between the rows there is always a way, and the player has a bunch of seconds, as it comes closer to the gates, to think about what is better to do. It can happen that a gate, usually the side ones, don't go up for a bunch of seconds. Being a race game, in this case it's not the case to wait for them to come down, because it would make the player to lose a lot of time and be passed by a lot of other players.
