Tire Friend News

A couple new items:

• A festive new hat, just in time for Thanksgiving!
  
• Graphical improvements, especially to the tire person himself.
  
• Camera improvements. Zoom out even farther or closer!
  
• Bug fixes.
  

Happy Tiring!

Hats look better without that odd transparency bug. Hopefully. Let me know if you see it again, though.

New hat for full version havers, too. And slight level tweaks and other bug fixes for all.

Happy tiring!

If you have the full version, make your way to Options > Paint to adorn your Tire Friend with a traffic cone, a garbage can lid, and (two) more!

More later, though.

Another level's coming soon.

Happy tiring!

A new level for the full version! In this one, Tire Friend will navigate up a series of grassy cliffs while being bombarded with missiles and laser rings. Or maybe he won't, if he's not very good at it!

There are also plenty of secrets and shortcuts.

And there may be tweaks to it moving forward. There always are!

Also some bug fixes and adjustments to some of the levels and options. Also, the level order. This whole thing ups some of the requirements on later ones, but if you've already cleared those later ones, you can still access them.

Let me know if you run into any problems. Or if you have any suggestions.

More to come. Happy tiring!

A couple notes:

• Ranks are twice as hard to grab now. S rank is 20k points rather than 10k as before. A rank is 10k rather than 5k. And so on and so forth. Please don't hate me!
  
• And even then, S is kids' stuff. There's a cool new ranking above S. All you have to do is clear a stage. With 20k points. After grabbing all of the Golden Hubcaps in the stage in one go. With both Challenges (Options > Gameplay) active. Meaning no powerups, no checkpoints, and a slowly leaking tire that gets harder and harder to control. It's verified possible!
  
• Oh, and rebalancing, level tweaks, and bug fixes.
  

All of the above is in the full and demo versions. Full version havers should get another new level pretty shortly, too.

As always, let me know your thoughts.

Happy tiring!
