Gameplay

-Pre-race Preparation
All races are free to enter, and no fee is required to race. Before the race, players must attempt to balance their Pega according to the tracks elemental variables. 
  1. Select "Racing" menu
  2. Enter the race lobby.
  3. Wait for the lobby to fill.
  4. Once the countdown is complete, the race will begin.

-Standard Racing (winning $VIS)
Your Pega will auto-race against 14 others. You can track your personal Pega by its position on the left or you can view them on track with an arrow indicating your Pega. 


At the initial game release, the race is primarily determined by Random Number Generator (RNG), with slight decisions making also dependent on the Pega and Track statistics providing you with a fair opportunity to place in the top 3. However, Pegaxy will eventually migrate away from being an auto-racer to a more traditional/manual skill-based game. People will be required to manually control their Pega during a race. This will allow for higher skilled players to have a better chance of top 3 placement, as they have invested more time into understanding the game mechanics.

-Drop Racing (winning various consumables items)
Introduced on July 25, Drop Racing is an alternative method of racing, where users race for items rather than standard VIS-based rewards. This new system will have a chest and key structure where users can obtain different consumables to use in-game for various purposes. These rewards allow users to alter their Pegas to gain competitive advantages within their desired arenas.
