Surprise! We're back with another free update!

Today, we're introducing a whole new mechanic in the world of SpeedRunners, and we couldn't be more excited about it.
Up until now, there have always been two main mechanics in the game; items and boost. In this update, we're adding a third - boostacokes!
This iconic drink, as promoted by Speedrunner himself in New Rush City's famous nightclub, is able to change the whole dynamic of a match.

Here's how it works:

• pick up boostacokes to increase your maximum speed
  
• each boostacoke increases your speed by a few percent
  
• collect up to 10 boostacokes in total
  
• you drop a few boostacokes if you get hit by an explosionz
  

And that's not all! To test this new feature, we added a new official map with corresponding theme called 'Laboratory'.

Let us know in the comments below, on Discord or via Twitter what you think about the new map and mechanic. If you like how boostacokes change the dynamic of a match, we might add them into existing maps as well!

It has been almost a year since the last ELO season. It's about time to figure who are the best SpeedRunners players right now!
The ELO Christmas Season will run for a month from December 17th 2018 until January 20th 2019.
The season will be followed by a tournament where the top 16 players can show off their skills to the world and we will end up with one final season winner!



Season rewards:

• All players who will participate will get their league's Christmas Season Badge.
  
• All players in diamond league will receive a special Christmas themed trail.
  
• The top 16 players of the season can participate in a tournament organised by Lewis, Comment, Takumi, Kernelpad and Distinct Madness from the Discord SpeedRunners community.
  

The ELO rules are the same as the previous winter season. More information will follow about the tournament later.

Happy Holidays!

Last Sunday, August 26th, marked the 5 year anniversary of SpeedRunners launching on Early Access. In the spirit of Early Access, we’re releasing an update that breaks the game, literally. We call it ‘SpeedRuiners’.



With this modifier, explosions (caused by Rockets, Bombs and Fireballs) will destroy the level geometry - creating shortcuts, opening up new routes or simply just breaking the whole level.



We recommend you turn on triple rockets and simply enjoy the chaos.



(On a serious note: obviously this modifier breaks the game, so it will only be active in quick and custom matches (not in ranked). We’ll turn it off after a couple of days, after which the modifier will be available as a custom game option).

Finally, we’d like to thank all of you who have played our little game over the past five years. We’re grateful for your support and we hope you’ve had some fun with the game! Stay tuned, because we’re working on a new update that will impact the way the game is played in a major way.
