Thing is, when you have the gun upgrade you can essentially keep going for ever (if you don't factor in helicopters). As it is now, you can get gun upgrade at about 800m, which gives you 600-700m of breathing space before the helicopters come. Try out some different techniques or see my tips in the description... games are meant to challenge, no?
Wheel upgrade increases your rotation, so you can do loops and not get stuck in the rocks as easily. If you're almost dead, with wheel upgrade you can go backwards for a short rest.
And yes, people with AK-47's are retarded :)

You end up going horizontally, kill pitchforks and Shotgunmen before they get in range, and get enough metal for upgrades before you get overwhelmed :)
Aioria - there are 'bosses'... try getting to 1600m :)
1337 - The bullets hit 'problem' is an intentional random factor... as for the dissonance, indeed, I'll have to work on that.
Thanks for commenting, Dalron!
As I said in the description, the original plan was to make a long campaign with different terrain, but I realised I simply had nothing to start from so I tried to polish a simplified arena mode instead.
