Hey folks!

We've released an update for Idols of Ash today that adds some features aimed at speedrunners and some other small changes!

Also, you can check out a new video we've just published that goes over how we designed the centipede's pathfinding system:

Speedrun Mode
- Adds an on-screen timer that tracks the time in each run
- The game can now track your best times and display them in the main menu
- While speedrun mode is enabled, the game will always start at the same position (no alternate starting positions after a death)

Additions
- New option for a Speedrun Mode added to the settings menu

Changes
- Sandbox Mode is now available without needing to complete Normal Mode
- The sandbox settings are now displayed on-screen at the end of each run
- The respawn time after a player death is a little fasterThanks for your time!Best,
The Leafy Games Team
