Rules:

The goal is to reach the finish line first without causing any trouble towards the other ENEMY ENTITIES in the game.
Crashing into enemy entities slows your player down and deducts points.
Screaming causes enemies to panic and make them maneuver randomly(either left or right). If the enemy panics too much it throws them off the map and leads to more points being deducted from you.

ENTITIES:

Entities can be classified into two categories: ENEMY and POWERUP
ENEMY entities can then be further split into three categories:

• Left to right entity: This is an entity that hinders players by moving left and right
• Static entity: This is an entity that just stays still
• AI entity: This entity races with your character towards the finish line

POWERUP entities can be split into FOUR categories: interacting(colliding) with any of these entities can either grant you a passive or an active power up

• Invincibility star entity(passive): Turns the player invulnerable for a short duration
• Speed boost entity(passive): Accelerates that player for a short duration
• Laser beam entity(passive): Fires a short distance laser for a short duration
• Nuke entity(passive): Wipes all enemy entities (excluding the AI and your character) off the screen
• Summon entity(active): Summons a static hiker behind your character.
