Hey Rally Family,

I've found a rare bug that could have been playing with your hard-earned unlocks. Some of you might have completed challenges, only to find the garage doors still locked. Not cool, right?

But don't worry - this has been resolved.
Now, when you dominate a challenge, you'll get the shiny cars and glory you've rightfully earned.

Stay sharp,
Will

It's time for me to announce LEAD - Rally's first real update, Version 0.2, is now drifting into your gaming rigs. Grab your virtual helmets - things just got a whole lot smoother (and, dare I say, easier?).

• Reworked Aero: The downforce has been increased by roughly 20%. What does this mean for your gameplay? More stability at breakneck speeds, more grip when you're flirting with the edge, and overall, a wilder ride that still feels tight and right.
  
• Choose Your Challenge: I've heard you and introduced difficulty levels and driving assists. Whether you're just taking the training wheels off or you're ready to drift with no assists like a pro, there's a setting for you. Newcomer, Seasoned, or Legend - pick your poison!
  
• Tutorial Mode Engaged: Full tutorial stage has been rolled out to show you the ropes. This is your chance to go from zero to hero at your own pace. Learn the ins and outs without the pressure and get to know the game's mechanics.

Your feedback is what makes all this possible. Please, keep the comments, high-fives, and bug squashing reports flowing!

Update now to 0.2 and remember, whether you're grinding gears or gliding smoothly, every drift counts.

Are you ready to take the LEAD?
Wait for the green aaaaaand - update!

Stay sharp,
Will

• I can't see any buttons?! - Now the game works with UHD and 21:9 aspect ratio monitors thanks to adjustments to the UI re-sizing logic
  
• Where is my Co-Driver?! - Missing audio connections have been fixed for the co-driver call-outs
  
• The car is too difficult to control! - Added ESC control logic to the car, which makes it easier to control the car and stop it from spinning. I am planning to add Difficulty settings to the game soon.

Thank you everyone, who has decided to try my game, it means an awful lot!

We have been off to a rocky start, but that's why Early Access is great so I can get feedback directly from you guys!

Any further issues or feedback, please let me know in the discussions - the discord server will be set-up soon as well!

What's that?
Can you hear these beeps?
Sounds like a the starting lights are about to go off!

I am thrilled to announce that LEAD - Rally is now available on Steam in Early Access!
I know it's what everyone says, but it really has been a long road, full of ups and downs, late nights and energy drinks (I don't like coffee that much). Anyway..

• A Unique Rally Experience: With our blend of vibrant visuals and challenging physics, you're in for an adrenaline-pumping ride.
  
• Accessible yet Deep: Whether you're a rally veteran or a newbie, there's something here for everyone.
  
• A Work in Progress: Yes, I admit it - LEAD - Rally is a bit rough around the edges. But isn't there a charm in a bit of dust and mud on a rally track?

• Roadmap Reveal: I am looking to share my plans with you very soon. Stay tuned for our roadmap release later this week.
  
• Discord Server: Much like the roadmap, it will be set-up later this week. You will be able to share your feedback, get the latest updates, and join the "LEAD - Rally" family.

Your feedback will be the fuel that powers our development engine. As I gear up for updates and improvements, your experiences, suggestions, and bug reports will be invaluable. Together, we can make this a great little game that's pleasing for the eyes and challenging for the reflexes!

Get your hands on LEAD - Rally today, and let's kickstart this journey together.

Are you ready to take the LEAD?

See you on the track,
Will
