Summer 2019! (0.8.1.0)


Summer is here! While we’ve been actively busy working on Arcade, some of us have spent time working on a TUbular Summer update to celebrate the season.

We’ve added two new minigames: Chainsaw Deathmatch and Booze Bash. Chainsaw Deathmatch is a classic GMT minigame but with its own death arena.

Franky’s grill is now open! He’s got hot dogs and beer for you to drink responsibly.

Our resident pool tube expert (a.k.a. Josh) crafted 53 beautiful pool tubes for you to express yourself with.

Well if you gotta do something its better to go overboard with it.

The banner says “over 53 new pool tubes.” I must protest! lol

Happy summer, everyone! (Unless you live below the Equator…)

The number of unique items with new effects, the mountain of new pool tubes and Chainsaw Battle make this a hefty seasonal event!

The cig is by far my favorite new item, was so happy to see it even lights up and puffs smoke! We need individual item offsets so I can make it look perfect on all my models!

10/10. Seasonal updates are getting so good!
