Multiplayer marble racing

So far, everything has been about building marble runs and watching the marbles go down them. That is all good fun. But Marvelous Marbles is in the 'games' section and that implies a challenge element.

While implementing the feature it occurred to me; "Why not make it multiplayer?"

But then immediately the next question arises: "How many players?"

For now it's settled on two. Is it enough? Does anyone have three friends that also like marble runs? If so, I hope you've told them to add it to their wishlists. ;)

I still haven't tried this in VR, but I'm sure it would be a harrowing experience. Multiplayer racing might also not make it into VR.

In other news, some limited external testing has begun, and I hope to announce a release data soon.
