The object is simple.. survive this brutal hurdle course as long as you can while Hurdle Turtle goes as fast as hit little legs can carry him!

See if you can make it onto the global leaderboards, as well as earn all of the medals!

- Also.. how the heck did someone get 521m? Honestly, are you some sort of robot sent back from the future to destroy us all with your mad hurdling skillz?

Top speed turtle good old classic

Those seeking the 300m challenge:

- Never move away from the middle. The outer lanes are not needed at all. Going there only makes harder to navigate walls.
- Get used to hurdles back to back. Either jump early to land faster or jump late to go over both.
- There is "pause scumming" in this game, if all else fails...

Holmfry responds:
