Hello again Backers and Friends!
It goes without saying that the Axle team has been hard at work.
In addition to designing and implementing a whole bunch of new levels, the programming and design teams have been hooking up some new features:
On top of all that, we have some new gear textures!

In addition to designing and implementing a whole bunch of new levels, the programming and design teams have been hooking up some new features:
- We now have a rough draft of our in-game store, which allows you to use the watts you either earn or buy to purchase power-ups, extra lives, and other fun items.
- We have some new obstacles and hazards to dodge including electricity that bounces around gears and cogs that disintegrate as you roll across them. The visual effects for these hazards are still in the works, but we'll share some screenshots with you once we have something that looks cool.
- There are now first drafts for two new pieces for our soundtrack. We also have first drafts for the sound effects for the first three worlds. And let me say, these first drafts sound amazing.
On top of all that, we have some new gear textures!

Now that we are in a more visual stage of our production, we will be able to share with you more frequent updates to show the new textures, levels, gameplay elements, and anything else that may be fun.
