You can unlock the Skater, Lizard, Child, and the Bunny by playing Explore Mode and reaching the conditions like clearing the Low-Power Tunnel, beating Level 10 or Level 40 or earning 8 achievements. the same goes for the Winter and Halloween Costumes.
Story[]
The plot of the game happens in Explore Mode. The first cutscene after beating Level 10, and progresses with each cutscene or dialogue found by the player. These cutscenes are usually triggered by beating a level, but can be triggered in other ways such as clicking on a drawing on the map. Because the game still has many levels to go before being finished, the story is currently incomplete.
The current story extremely summarized is that 10 aliens enter the tunnels, however their planet goes missing leaving them trapped. The Angel gathers up some of the aliens and attempts to find a way home. Meanwhile the Runner and the Student discover a wormhole and attempt to enter it.
