+
+## About
+
+
+
+A Pineapple God has teleported you to a tropical archipelago, and demands that you surround it with followers!
+
+1. Collect seeds around the archipelago
+2. Use your peashooter to plant them on horizontal surfaces
+3. Walk nearby grown pineapples to harvest them
+4. Bring them to the Pineapple God until it is satisfied
+
+

+
+## Leaderboards
+
+The Pineapple god will keep track of the time it takes you to bring it 150 pineapples, and will compare it with that of his other servants. **Can you be the fastest?**
+
+_The leaderboards are experimental, unmoderated, and have no anti-cheat. Please be nice!_
+
+
+## How to go faster
+
+Pineapple Surf is centered on the mechanic of bunnyhopping to move faster!
+
+The mechanics are similar to those of [the first Half-Life](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WschEm9uYao): a simple way to start going faster is holding Space and D while constantly turning right in a circle.
