A stickman, a growing neck, and the right colour
Long Neck Run is a 3D runner. Your stickman runs forward on his own; you steer him left and right into rings on the track. Grab the rings of the right colour and his neck grows longer — that is the whole idea, and the reason the game looks the way it does.
Controls
Move left and right with the mouse, or swipe with a finger on a phone. You do not control speed or jumping: the only decision is which lane to be in.
Reading the track
Rings come in rows of different colours, so each stretch is a small choice about which line to follow. Look one row ahead and pick the run of rings that matches your colour.
Commit early
Most wrong rings come from a late swerve: you see the right line too late, cut across the track, and collect the wrong colours on the way over. Choose the lane before you reach the row and slide into it early; small, early moves beat big, late ones.
