[h1]HERE WE GO AGAIN[/h1]
Here's more stuff for your eyeballs!
In this one, currency system, boss update, more Nintendo Switch news and more.
Let's jump into it!
[h2]How Much Is This?[/h2]
Scraps are the currency you’ll use to buy items in Turbo Kid. We’ve determined the number of scraps you’ll earn when defeating enemies, destroying boxes, etc. and, based on that, we’ve set prices for items sold by merchants. If you complete all side quests and explore the entire game, you should earn enough to purchase every item within the game.

[h2]For Where God Built a Church...[/h2]
Welcome to Church! This is the Preacher’s hideout, the base of operations for his sprawling cult, kind of his own personal “Vatican™”. Here, he uses the population’s need for mechanical implants as leverage to maintain control over his followers and expand his grip on the wasteland. Here is a spoiler-soft glimpse at his compound 😉

[h2]Boss: The Oozinator[/h2]
The Oozinator’s voice echoes throughout the sewer pipes leading the passerbys and residents of the Sewers to believe it’s haunted by what they call The Voice. No one knows if he can die, or what would happen if he does.

[h2]Switch Build[/h2]
It's alive! After multiple optimizations, collaborative efforts with our partners, and dedicated hard work, Turbo Kid is now up and running on the Switch. We still have a lot of work ahead of us to achieve the desired framerate and stability, but this progress signals that we are moving in the right direction.

[h2]Bloopers![/h2]
The burden of bugs is unavoidable when building video games so if we can’t escape them, we’ll at least have some fun with them. Hundreds of bugs are discovered and fixed each month, many of them are pretty funny (dev insight: some of them can even become features sometimes 🤫). Here’s a couple of fun ones we found recently for your viewing pleasure.
