addedPowerupsWe added powerups that you can enable/disable with the game options (under fun settings). There are 7 powerups, with the possibility of more in the future! Also, all the powerups have challenges associated with them. Below are all the powerups with a description of what they do:
changedSuper DamageThis powerup gives you, and you alone, super damage for a short period of time. This is super useful to take out other alcoholics in the default game mode, or defend your flag in capture the flag (and of course much more).
changedShieldThe shield makes it so the next time you take damage, you don't take any (lasts until you take damage).
changedHPThis powerup repairs your car so you can survive longer!
changedUI OverhaulWe completely redid the UI to make it so controllers can work on them while also improving the look/feel! We are happy to say the game (in theory) should fully work with controllers! There may be some bugs and we have some improvements we want to make, but everything should work!
changedAlcohol Spawning OverhaulWe overhauled how alcohol is spawned so no matter how many players you are playing with, everyone can get drunk! We also increased the overall amount of alcohol throughout the maps to make the game more true to its name :).

Powerups

We added powerups that you can enable/disable with the game options (under fun settings). There are 7 powerups, with the possibility of more in the future! Also, all the powerups have challenges associated with them. Below are all the powerups with a description of what they do:

Infinite Boosts

This one is pretty explanatory, as you get infinite boosts and less recharge delay between boosts for a short period!

Super Damage

This powerup gives you, and you alone, super damage for a short period of time. This is super useful to take out other alcoholics in the default game mode, or defend your flag in capture the flag (and of course much more).

Super Honk

Probably the most fun powerup, as it allows you to launch any nearby players away from you whenever you honk. Plus, it has a cool looking effect.

Jump Height

This powerup increases your jump height (for a period of time) so you can reach the skies :)

Shield

The shield makes it so the next time you take damage, you don't take any (lasts until you take damage).

Water

This powerup reduces how drunk you are!

HP

This powerup repairs your car so you can survive longer!

UI Overhaul

We completely redid the UI to make it so controllers can work on them while also improving the look/feel! We are happy to say the game (in theory) should fully work with controllers! There may be some bugs and we have some improvements we want to make, but everything should work!

Alcohol Spawning Overhaul

We overhauled how alcohol is spawned so no matter how many players you are playing with, everyone can get drunk! We also increased the overall amount of alcohol throughout the maps to make the game more true to its name :).
