The July Monthly Challenge continues.

Early in the month, many players submit their first scores. That is a good start, but early scores are often not enough to hold the winning position by the end of the challenge.

According to the Hall of Fame, previous Monthly Challenge winners have ranged from 16,000 to 160,000 points, but a strong practical target is around 50,000 points or more.

To compete for the top position, 50,000+ is a good score to aim for. But do not forget to check back during the month and make sure your score has not been overtaken by other players.

Do not leave your best run until the last day - the winning score can be difficult to reach in a single attempt.

The July Challenge winner will receive 5 Steam keys.

Good luck, and see you on the leaderboard!
