Guide
How to use the site effectively
This guide explains the intended player flow: account creation, normal game launch, duel queueing, leaderboard eligibility, and in-site reporting. It is written for actual use on this service, not as generic game filler.
2. Start a normal game
Use Start Game in the dashboard. A normal game is the correct path for your own continuing save progress. The site will show loader status while the client and game are being prepared.
3. Let the launcher finish
Browser play still needs a short preparation phase. Let the loader finish and watch the status text before assuming something is wrong. The service keeps launch status visible so the next action is obvious.
4. Keep solo and duel play separate
The duel tab is for ranked and private matches. Treat it as a separate mode with its own setup, ready checks, and match rules. Use normal sessions for personal progression and duel mode for competitive matches.
Eligibility
When progression systems are restricted
The site can disable leaderboard, Chips, cosmetics, or duel access when Profile 1 is not eligible. Two common causes are Unlock All usage and moderated names. The profile area explains the current restriction and points the player to the in-game Profile 1 reset path when restoration is possible.
Troubleshooting
What to do when something feels wrong
Slow launch: Wait for the loader first. Launch timing varies by session preparation state.
Game did not open: Wait for the launcher first, then use the Feedback Desk if it still fails.
Duel setup confusion: Wait for the ready/check overlays and use the duel controls instead of solo controls.
Incorrect UI state: Use the Feedback Desk or issue report prompt after sign-in.
Mobile: Expect touch helpers and constrained screen space; fullscreen flow matters more here.
