An Update One Year in the Making – Downpour Dash v0.99 is out now!
It’s been a long time coming. This is the most significant update the game has ever seen: nearly every system has been overhauled. From the level editor to the user interface, performance improvements, and tighter gameplay- almost everything has been revamped or improved.
You might be wondering: why isn’t this version 1.0?
Despite all the changes, there’s still one core piece we’re working on: the Dasher Customizer. And honestly, we don’t have enough official maps yet to confidently call this a complete, standalone experience. That’s why we’re labeling this the final beta. After v0.99, we’ll be pushing smaller updates with more maps and features until we hit that proper 1.0 milestone- and it’s not far off.
Thanks for your patience, support, and feedback. We’re almost there.
