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:
Today starts the Magic Gem Speedrun Contest, ending 1 week from today (next Monday). Top 3 get prizes, including existing Pixeljam Games and some other goodies.
The top overall score at the end of 6 weeks will also get a Dino Run T-Shirt.
Happy Speedrunning (and Overall Scoring),
-Miles @ Pixeljam and shysaursoft
