The end of April marks the first complete month since the periodic leaderboards were added. The competition was pretty fierce resulting in two new all-time high scores and the emergence of a new top player using the Classic control scheme.
Congratulations to Grey Wolf for a zero to hero show, and Flu Orid, the reigning champion for some time, for putting up a good fight to try and hold the title!
Talking to Grey Wolf on the (Solaroids Discord Server) a few days prior to the achievement, it sounds like they play inertia based shooters almost exclusively, and have spent a lot of time honing their piloting skills playing the famous Subspace.
Come join the (Solaroids Discord Server), exercise some much needed bragging rights, say high to other players, share some tips, and give me your thoughts about what would make the Best Asteroids Style Space Shooter on the planet.

Hope you all had a good April and I look forward to what May will bring!
Cheers and Happy Blasting!!
