Upgrades (Tower Fortress)

Upgrades are collectible items in the game Tower Fortress that grant passive buffs to the player.

Game information

Upgrades are always located in the upgrades area at the end of each level and require a key to access. The player can choose one of three randomised upgrades, and jump inside its container to grab it and continue to the next level. Once obtained, upgrades will appear in the user interface.
