Demo Patch d0.2.2: Leaderboards are here!

A fresh new tech demo build of Tidal Rush is here, and we have something cool stuff for you record hunters: Leaderboards (Records) are live!

Your total race times are now tracked automatically, with filtering by engine tier (power level) and lap count. Tracking best lap times is still in the making, but should follow soon as well. See how you stack up and chase faster laps! Race against your friends for the fastest times or challenge our developers.By the way - we are going to flag developers as such soon, so you know who you are chasing ;).

Jump back in and let us know how the new leaderboards feel – we’re excited to see your fastest times! 🚀
