Further Changes and additions.

In response to your feedback, we’ve made a few changes to the controls and other early aspects of the game. An alternative horse racing control scheme using buttons and joysticks has been added alongside the existing motion controls, giving players who struggle with gestures a more responsive and intuitive option, which can be found in the pause menu during races. To support this, a new tutorial has been introduced to help players learn the updated controls. We have also adjusted the first horse preferences to make the opening two races more exciting and enjoyable for players.

That's all for this update, folks. We hope you enjoy everything update 1.1 has to offer. To keep up to date with everything Rival Stars, make sure you join our Discord community. Until next time, Happy Riding!
