- The garage screen opens fifteen levels and a customize screen with rims priced from 2000 to 6000.

**The first car parking game tip is to ease off the up arrow: in [Baysnap](https://yesthisgame.com/baysnap/) all three runs where we held it were out on the open roof about 22 seconds after Start, while the three runs with no keys never left the first floor.** The Collisions counter stayed at 0 in all six.

## How the game works

Baysnap is a 3D car parking game set in a multi-storey car park. On the garage screen you see a red sedan, your coin balance and buttons for Levels, Customize, Upgrade and Start. Once you press Start, a timer runs at the top left and a Collisions counter sits at the top. A gear indicator with D, N and R is on the right, and a glowing red marker stands ahead on the first floor.

## What we measured

We played level 1 in a test browser at 1280 by 800 pixels with software rendering, so the game runs slowly. In each run we pressed Start and then either pressed no keys or held the up arrow, and we looked at the screen at about 14, 22 and 30 seconds. We made three runs for each input.

*Where the car was about 22 seconds after Start*

| Input | On the first floor | Out on the open roof |
| --- | --- | --- |
| No keys pressed | 3 of 3 | 0 of 3 |
| Up arrow held | 0 of 3 | 3 of 3 |

Three runs per input in one test browser with slow software rendering, so the timing is approximate. The timer ran down in all six runs and the Collisions counter stayed at 0. We did not park the car or finish a level.

## What the garage offers

You start with 1,400,000 coins and the car shows a price of 1000. Levels shows fifteen tiles numbered 0 to 14, each with a best-time box, and locked levels have a padlock. Customize has neon, color, roof, spoiler and rims; the rims are priced from 2000 to 6000 and the spoilers from 1000 to 4000.

## 4 tips that follow from the numbers

- **Do not hold the up arrow for long.** It took the car out onto the open roof in all three runs.
- **Do not wait.** The timer ran down even with no keys pressed.
- **Watch the Collisions counter.** It stayed at 0 in all our runs.
- **Look at Customize first.** The rims cost 2000 to 6000 coins.
