Easter Egg: Secret characters can be selected by typing special commands in the in-game chat:.

Some of them have animations showing them activating a jet pack or some other device, but others appear to be just that athletic.

Double Jump: All runners have this ability.

On the other hand, the safe route includes a lever that will close the shortcuts in the hard route, making it worth taking if you think you can reach it before the other players reach the shortcut.

Difficult, but Awesome: Many levels include a split between a safe route and a hard route.

Building Swing: Each player gets a grappling hook they can use on surfaces marked with solid white lines.

Blatant Burglar: Jailbird, one of the many unlockable characters who either wears the classic black-and-white striped outfit with domino mask or a more modern orange jumpsuit.
