The Pincenartor, layout pools of lava to burn up your opposition!
The Big Up Drink, slurp up the greatest beverage this side of hell and turn into your true form; a giant bowling ball.

If you had an incredible high score up there, fear not! The leaderboards from the previous update (and all leaderboards prior) are stored on Steam and we will be working on presenting these in game in the near future.
