In our new Platform Fighter, Runback, when the timer hits zero the game doesn't just end, it comes to a climax with one of many timeouts!

These ensure the rounds are fast and fresh, while (hopefully🤞) not encouraging camping as you never know which timeout will happen next!

[Runback Game @RunbackGame]

The people want to Run it Back and 32 just wasn't enough!

We've doubled the player cap to 64 after getting a lot more interest than we anticipated, and once we pass 48 entrants we're adding an extra $50 for each of top-8 to the prize pool! ($400 extra total!)

[AZRivalsOfAether @AZRivals]

Runback at Heat Wave hit its entry cap so quickly that we've worked with the creators to raise it!

In addition to the $1k prize pool, the @RunbackGame devs will add an additional $400 to the prize pool if we hit 48 entrants!
