Sugar Rush

Sugar Rush is an essential feature to the gameplay of Sugary Spire.

It is activated once the player rams into or attacks Gummy Harry.

Gameplay

Sugar Rush is normally the main requirement to opening a level's Exit Door and completing the level. Once Gummy Harry has been slain, the level immediately turns into a mad chase back to the beginning. A timer, varying for the level, will start ticking down, indicating that the player must escape as fast as possible.

During Sugar Rush, the player's points are slowly drained, with 5 points being drained for every second wasted, giving the player even more of a reason to try to get to the exit sooner to get a good rank. Taunting while standing over the exit door during Sugar Rush will give the player 25 points; however, it can only be done 10 times per level, with a maximum total being 250 points.

Lap Portals, if unlocked, can be entered during Sugar Rush to start Lap 2, which teleports the player back to the place Gummy Harry was, without resetting the timer. Starting Lap 2 gives 3000 points.

The timer does not count down when the player is in Secret Portal areas. However, the time keeps counting down during cutscenes and item pose animations, wasting a small portion of time.

When time runs out, Coneball appears and starts to chase the player. If he touches the player, they are instantly given a "TIME'S UP" and kicked out of the level, requiring them to start the level again.
