A slightly bigger update this time. Lots of small fixes.
Power-ups now show up in Free mode. Previously they only appeared in Race mode on Wednesdays. There are actually a bunch of day specific modes. I can't remember adding that, but shrug there you are. See if you can find them all.
Pursuit mode has a new speed bar for the pursuer, so you can tell how fast it is going (and how fast it's catching up).
Smashing through a block at high speed now costs you less of your momentum than smashing through one slowly. Previously every break cost the same flat amount regardless of how fast you were going.
The slack in your tether is drawn more accurately. The wave now reflects how much spare rope there actually is, as opposed to looking at the wrong variable(!)
Ghost data is stored in a new, much more compact format, and ghosts now download much faster.
Because of that new format, the leaderboards have been reset. Everyone starts from scratch. Sorry everyone.
Fixed a crash when quitting immediately after finishing a run.
If a ghost fails to upload it's now saved and retried later instead of being lost.
Fixed the game not noticing midnight had passed. If you left it open overnight, race day and the daily seed now roll over properly instead of keeping yesterday's.
Fixed a rare drawing error that could stop a character rendering.
Various Steam reliability fixes around scores and ghost uploads.
Fixed VSync setting not working properly.
Fixed the font I was using to have the full character set. So the game now contains a full stops.
Fixed a bunch of performance issues Fix a bug where playing daily race during midnight would cause you to time travel.

New music in the standard rotation
Fix a bug where users could not publish ghosts correctly. The VAST majority of users have been effected by this since the last major patch. Sorry, my bad.

Fix for the performance issues seen in the last update.
Made some adjustments to the way the game scales at high resolutions. Should increase the amount of play area visible for all players.
Added the ability to customise your controls. Added an option for single button controls. When "release to detach" is set your tether will only stay attached as long as the attach button is held down. This means that the tether will always be retracting while attached. I wouldn't
Fixed bug that caused invisible blocks to spawn (such as in today's race).

New music in the standard rotation A new achievement for reaching maximum speed
The world generator has undergone some changes. This will mean that the starting locations are more varied, and that walls of blocks are less likely to form. World seeds from previous game versions will retain the same feel, but individual block placement will not be exactly the
Date localisation bug fixed Due to the above bug, the daily race race leaderboards have been reset.
