Rollin' Rascal, a Sonic Adventure-inspired speedrunner game, just added ranked multiplayer races to its Steam Next Fest demo. The game features sprawling levels with momentum-based physics, ramps, slides, and grind rails. Lead developer Gabriel Gonzales previously worked on the Sonic fangame Sonic GT. The demo shows strong fundamentals but still has minor camera and bug issues.
