So, it took me a while, but I made it 3.7 meters, which was pretty cool, but then I figured out that if you can get one leg sticking straight out and the other sticking straight back you'll do kind of a split when you fall rather than just eat pavement and lose automatically. From there you can slowly creep forward if you have to. I made it 40 meters before deciding that I had wasted more than enough time and just quit.
The second game is just a bitch that I want no part of.
