Tire Friend News

[p]A bunch of little changes here:[/p]

• [p]Enhanced lighting all throughout![/p]
• [p]A much more powerful—and much more fun—"Spin Grip" (aka "Wall Roll"), which lets Tire Friend use angular momentum to launch himself right up a wall![/p]
• [p]New course "themes" to differentiate some of the courses even more ("Dec-Cadent Ascents")![/p]
• [p]New Achievements, with even more on the way![/p]
• [p]More and improved little tutorial video things that show up in the corner sometimes. You know, so you can see exactly how to perform the Slip Grip yourself![/p]

[p]Next up is a new course (the ~18th so far!), this time centered around speeding up walls.[/p][p]Happy Tiring![/p][p][/p][p][/p]

[p]In Pipe Plunger, Tire Friend will... well, plunge through pipes. They scoot and shoot him all over the place. He'll also have to avoid many, many spiky things.[/p][p]*There's another new course that's also technically in the game, but it's impossible to get to at the moment since it's meant to be unlocked much later.[/p][p]Also, pressing BACKSPACE (keyboard) or BACK (controller) on the hub world will toggle both Challenges on and off now.[/p][p]Next up: probably more usability improvements, such as with the hats dialog.[/p][p][/p][p]Happy Tiring![/p][p][/p][p]

[p]A minor update, since the work-in-progress course "Pipe Plunger" apparently needs more testing.[/p][p][/p][p]Motion blur is in the game. You can disable it in Options > Graphics.[/p][p]Many models have been tweaked or otherwise optimized. Some courses have, too (see: Spinswagger Speedway). Also, bug fixes, including a couple nasty ones.[/p][p][/p][p]New course soon. ...if not the pipe course, then some other course.[/p][p][/p][p]Happy Tiring![/p]

[p]Well, the Halloween update was a couple weeks early, so here's a more... par-for-the-course update.[/p][p][/p][p]First, the game supports cloud saves. (I thought it did before, but they were disabled. Whoops!) Please let me know if you have trouble with this. If you do, my excuse is that the game is still in Early Access.[/p][p][/p][p]Also, a couple other bug fixes, tweaks, and optimizations that might make the game run more smoothly.[/p][p][/p][p]New course soon. It involves a series of tubes.[/p][p][/p][p]Happy Tiring![/p]

[p]Don't be afraid. Be a witch, a pumpkin, a boring man, a plumber, a Jr., or any number of other things instead. Just head to Options -> Change Tire to dress up![/p][p]The new course "Danger: Low Visibility!" has you illuminating some creepy hallways and finding secrets along the way. With a little bit of practice, you can speed through it. There might be ways to improve the whole darkness and headlight mechanic. I'm always open to suggestions![/p][p]There are some bugfixes and visual improvements, too.[/p][p]Next up, probably, is a better interface for the hats and even more visual improvements. Probably another new course soon after.[/p][p]Happy Tiring![/p][p][/p][p][/p]
