’ asynchronous multiplayer encourages you to cooperate with others and make discoveries. Dying in a temple results in temporarily losing your equipped whip and any treasure accumulated during the run, but they can be salvaged. Failure is not an endpoint, as you receive a code other players can activate to attempt ‘rescuing’ your phantom by claiming the temple’s relic.

Be warned, you only get one attempt at each temple and failure or settling for a lesser relic means you will never see that temple again…

The guardian cap at 5m/s. When it is the case, you can still outrun him in a straight line, so I guess you are running between 7 and 9m/s. Just don't assume you are okay, because he will be breathing on your neck the second you have to stop or take a turn.

The latter still requires that you own the Steam version, so I guess there’s no reason to specify that. The game is looking all kinds of fantastic, so it seems like the right time to start getting hyped for when it’s available and I find myself dying horribly for hours on end.
