Rogue-Bike Update:

World Map overhaul:
- Randomized start/finish line and level placement.
- Added more special nodes to the map. (Medic, First person, Danger zone, and more??)
- Day/night cycle. A new environment starts in the morning and playing a level advances the day. Reach the end of the world map before you run out of daylight.
Rep system overhaul:
- Rep can no longer be lost. The risk of losing reputation made end-game players play very safe, this wasn't very fun to watch. In order to see more sick tricks we're introducing:
- Flow (rep per minute). Flow is the reputation one earns per minute, making sure that the players who are on top of the flow leaderboards are actually the most entertaining to watch as they constantly have to do the sickest stunts.
- New sessions start at 0 rep, the goal is to reach the end of the last environment with as much rep as possible. Session rep is added to your account rep after each session. Leaderboards will track 'best session rep', 'flow' (only on successfully completed runs), and 'overall account rep'.
- Diminishing returns. Doing the same trick over and over will reward fewer rep each time.
Build crew:
- Build crew is a way to customize and tweak a session to the players liking.
- At certain rep milestones during a session new crew members will be unlocked. The player will have to choose one out of four randomly generated crew members (modifiers). Crew members last until the end of a session and a fresh session starts with 0 crew members.
- Crew members can be: wider paths when generating levels, higher bunny hops, decrease in off-road friction, generate fewer obstacles, always show the compass, and many others. Right now we've implemented 22 different build crew members and there are more to come! If you have ideas for other crew members, let us know!
Mixer integration. Allows for interaction between viewers and streamers on the Mixer streaming platform.
Speedrun timer. Enable in the gameplay settings to show a speedrun timer during your sessions. This timer ONLY pauses during loading screens.
I've been playing this game a bunch and figured it needed a thread. It's also currently on sale on Steam and the Xbox
