■ Realistic start experience - Work the throttle lever while the race clock counts down - Engine sound from a real 2-stroke motor, race-day fanfare, and haptics on every move - Six boats on the water, with wind, formation and weather random or chosen ■ 3D Race - Ride in your own cockpit, in first person — a real racer's view of the start - No clock on the screen: you read the real one standing beside the course - Distance boards line the grandstand every 100m. S for start, G for goal - Boats right beside you are invisible in first person, so the minimap tracks them - Use the Look lever (or drag the screen) to check the boats alongside; let go and it snaps back - Water, stands, turn marks and markers follow official racecourse dimensions - Waves catch the light, the sky reflects off the water, and the surface streams past as you run - Stronger wind raises the waves and blunts your stretch - Slit photos and replays play back in 3D too ■ 2D Race (choose your view) - Pick any of six boats and race against CPU rivals - "Classic" — a full overhead view of the whole course - "Panorama" — zoomed right in, reading the start from the distance signs alone - Switch to Start Practice from the same screen to drill your ST - CPU racers are ranked A1–B2; the lower the class, the more their starts scatter - Records are kept separately for each view ■ Tilt - Adjust the motor from -0.5° to 3.0°, just like the real thing. Higher tilt stretches your speed after the start - The trade-off is a duller launch: commit early for the speed, or drop the tilt and take the start ■ Series — completely rebuilt! - Five grades: General to SG. Your class decides what you can enter; SG needs A1 for two straight terms - 24 racers: qualifiers → two semifinals for the top 12 → three from each make the final - Lanes follow the standings, so the leaders start inside - Score it by Place Points, or by ST × Place, where place points are multiplied by your start (×1.5 at 0.00s, ×0.6 when late) — a sharp second can beat a late first - Suspend to save your progress, or go home to withdraw ■ Daily Challenge - The same daily conditions for everyone, one try per day, with its own Game Center leaderboard ■ Stats & Class — just like real boat racing - Judged by win rate and accident rate, with a weekly B2–A1 review. Flying starts count too — grind your way up to A1 and the SG stage ■ Weather (Night / Rain / Snow / Heavy Rain / Heavy Snow / Fog) - Day or night combines freely with all five kinds of precipitation - Heavy rain blurs the view, heavy snow washes the course out, dense fog swallows the distance - Bad weather hides the clock: raindrops streak the dial, snow settles on it, and in fog you only see it as you close in ■ Ghost racing - Replay your best run as a "ghost" and race your past self, in normal races as well as practice - Aim for a "Just Start" under 0.10 seconds ■ Local Match (up to 6 players) - Create or join rooms with a QR code and race friends nearby in real time - The host shares wind and weather, so everyone faces the same conditions ■ Slit Photo & Replay - The exact positions at 0s recreated as a real "slit photo" - Slow-motion replay around the start, saved for your latest and best runs, exportable as a video ■ Accessibility - Audio guide for the race clock (beats at 8-11 seconds, higher right before 0) - VoiceOver readout of the race ■ Stats & Game Center - Win rate, top-2/top-3 rate, average ST, best ST, accident rate and per-lane records - Game Center leaderboards for the best ST worldwide, plus 12 achievements to earn ■ Race History - Your last 500 races, run by run, to review ST trends and how you fare in each condition - Everything is free — no in-app purchases
