| Rex has been updated to 1.01, LEADERBOARD & SPEEDRUN CONTEST | 2017-11-20 | Hello All, We've uploaded an update to Rex, bumping the game to version 1.01. Here is what changed: - Speedrun exploit fixed, preventing player from being able to reset while banking coins. (Sorry!) - Millisecond granularity added to timer / time submitted to leaderboards. - Timer now records your par time the instant you hit an ending door (it used to wait until the fade-out finished). - Music now fades out on zone transition. We're transitioning over to 4 new leaderboards today, since the old ones have the speedrun exploit reflected in them. The old ones will say RETIRED. In celebration of the new leaderboards, we're having a CONTEST: http: |
