Fast RMX

Date played: March 17th
Platform: Switch

Well, I managed first place in that championship I was having trouble with last time! This game is really about learning the tracks though, because it's so fast that the first couple times on a track is bound to end in failure. Also, I am now convinced that lightweight ships are the ones for me. Their handling is just so much better than the heavier ships, it's no contest really.

I tried out the next cup, which features one of the coolest tracks in the game so far. It's on some sort of space station and it has a couple of low gravity segments where I have to fly through some asteroids! I placed 3rd on my first attempt, so I'll have to go back to this one soon.
This track is so fucking cool!
I also tried out the online multiplayer and placed 2nd in the three races I competed in. There's kind of a lot of lag, but it wasn't enough to really distract me from the experience. There was really just one other guy who was fast enough to keep up with me. I battled with him a few times, but he got the best of me every time. To be fair, he had a lot of experience points, or ranking points or whatever, so he's played online quite a bit.
