Hey all,
we're back with a new update this week! So let's jump right into the novel sensation that is Build #5156201.

We know you've been waiting for this for a while: You can now finally unlock customization items!
Tricks and stunts no longer add bonus points instead, they unlock items. Perform 10 tricks in a single session to unlock a new item. Any combination of tricks or stunts will do. Here's a list:
- FLIP (Do a flip)
- HOOPED (Jump through a fire ring)
- NEAR MISS (Narrowly avoid hitting a moving obstacle)
- CLOSE CALL (Build a tile *just* in time to save the driver)
As of now, the only available customization parts are paints, patterns, and noses (read below). You will however be able to unlock every type of customization even if you can't equip or even see them yet. You'll be able to use them, once they're added in a future update.

The third customization slot is now available: Noses!
If you've ever felt your Monster Truck to be too faceless, feel no more!
With currently...
- 28 noses
- 26 patterns
- 43 paint jobs
... we're now just over A MILLION possible customization combinations.

As usual, we did a bunch of other things, that were pushed out of the spotlight by unlocks and noses. Here are a few of them:
- You may now disconnect a controller on the Game Over screen, without the game rage-quitting
- Ballons with Holos on them are lit up now, which is pretty
- Removed bonus points for stunts, because of score-mongering (reported by Citabogue & Paragon | Janni & Paragon | Jocy)
- Stunts now unlock customization items (even ones not yet available. Future-you approves this.)
- Adds noses to vehicle customization, because all trucks need noses.
- Building with the mouse now works, when mouse-lock is active. Magical.
- Danger Glow no longer progresses while in the air. More close calls. Neat. (reported by Citabogue)
- Makes menu controllable with WASD, because why not (reported by Sofi)
- Vehicles now explode in joy when all Holos are collected in Game of Drones
- Game of Drones will no longer end prematurely for various reasons
- Imitating real life, you can no longer drive in the air in Game of Drones
- The splash screen is now monkey-safe
And of course, if you find anything that bothers you or anything you really love, let us know!
See you on the Forums!
