Finger Swipes: swipe up with one finger and you go up a level; swipe down and you go down a level. Swipe left or right, and you'll make those turns at the next intersection. A 'U' swipe (or inverted-'U') will make a U-turn at the next intersection.
Scooter Energy: energy is shown in the neon window sign in the opening screen and on the blue 'Energy' bar in missions. If the scooter fully drains, or is idle overnight, it will recharge. Energy tokens will give you an instant full charge.
Tips displayed in the neon window sign in the opening screen and are increased by the tips earned on successful missions. Tips unlock customizations such as scooter colors.
Grabbing sky lanterns can help you out! The orange sky lanterns extend your mission time, and on some missions time is very limited. Green lanterns increase speed. Yellow lanterns increase tips. Blue lanterns increase scooter energy. And the wild card purple lanterns provide a random, higher-strength version of a previous color.
