Turbo Dismount 2 News

[h2]Hello Dismounters![/h2][p]
Back with a smash!
Race levels now feature time-based leaderboards, now it's a competition about speed!

Speaking of speed, NPC vehicles are now stupid, dangerous, and capable of higher velocities than before.

Performance has been improved, stutters have been reduced, and levels with NPCs see notable gains.

[h2]Hello Dismounters![/h2][p]
We're back again! Score calculation is going to get more love in the coming updates, but we start here. The basic scoring is now re-balanced to take multiple characters better into account. More damage events are now recognized and displayed with the damage icons on the side of the screen.

NOTE: A leaderboard reset is approaching with the coming updates!

Levels are going to have multiple score types from record times to damage points, so the current system is not going to remain once all the good stuff is in place.
