Full Gear version 3.0 is as good as done, and I've started polishing it. So time for a little update! It's been so long, and I wanted to even add six winter-themed items but never got around to it.



Not in this image: more decoration, some extra tooltips, and five new tracks! Or... four new tracks? Or... ah, we'll figure it out.

And don't forget!


There's always room for another one.

Fixed creature colliders. Fixed the mouse cursor disappearing after the game over animation.

If you find any bugs, please report them.

AI Removal Progress:
More than half of the AI-created artwork for the upgrade icons has been replaced with new ones. There's still a lot of AI placeholder art for some of the original upgrades and for the 2 new ones, but we're working on replacing them too!
