Coming soon in v1.6:

Five more Flash Tracks will be added to the Neon Circuit as Part 2 of the "FLASH : forward" initiative! This content update features 3 pre-existing songs, one original track from Eraser, and one distant challenge—or is that just a mirage?

Please look forward to it!

happy birthday @riley.gwar.club! time to teach em right

A fake book cover for a "Quality Charting for EX-XDRiVER" guide book.
22nd Edition
A Chart Guide for the Rest of Us!

At the top of the book cover is a quote from TheBlockiest saying "I still have no idea what I'm doing."

In the bottom left corner, the book is authored by "Riley Goat, Director of EX-XDRiVER"

In the bottom right corner, an image of Riley's fursona points smugly into the air. A speech bubble extends from his head, saying "Make the most of your charting experience!"

EX-XDRiVER @xdrv.team · Apr 1

In EX-XDRiVER v1.4.1, the Time metric has been removed! You can no longer finish the race. 🥳

As a result, the Life and Momentum gauges have been reworked to play into a larger system that will be developed further in the future.

Various other changes are present, too.

v1.4.1 is available now! ⚡
