Welcome to Red Rocket: Rat Race 2.0! This is the biggest update the game has seen yet!
--QUESTS!--
Race to complete all 3 quests each day to earn coins and wrenches.
--SHOP!--
Unlock 8 new skins and enjoy reduced prices on older skins.
Also look out for two new wheels, bar speed which increases your speed the more boost you hold and anti-missile, which shield your car from the missile
Additionally, players can find four new boost juice varieties to unlock (terraformer, chaff, fast time, and wild).
--PLAY--
The game now features two beautiful mountains in the distance, giving the player more to look at than just the blue sky.
Three new structures have also been added, one for each season, look out for those!
Terrain generation has been made more randomized as well, this gives more variety to gameplay.
--SETTINGS--
The settings menu is now scrollable on smaller devices to account for the new setting to flip controls. This setting swaps the movement button and the rotation buttons to the opposite sides of the screen.
--MISC--
Players can now see their wrench count in the repair menu.
There is now an option to purchase wrenches within the repair menu for players who have none left.
The game will now remember the season in the main menu and carry it into the play session.
A one-time tutorial has been added for the games controls.
When a player hits a new high score, the high score text will now say "NEW HIGH SCORE" rather than displaying the current score a second time.
Fixed issues with cancelling certain boost varieties early.
Adjusted the size of the car to be slightly larger to make terrain more navigable.
Implemented a new app icon that more closely represents the Red Rocket we all know and love from the game.
Adjusted the appearance of the missile to be more cool.
The missile will be more of a threat to players who slow down for long periods of time now.
And that's all. I hope everyone enjoys all the new features and if there are any bugs or glitches feel free to find the support page and let me know about them.
Thanks for playing!
