The Gear as it looks in the game
Chapter 5, Gear Heads

Gear

A free gear. Meshed gears turn each other, in opposite directions.

How it works

  • It is a free gear that turns on a fixed axle.
  • Two gears mesh when they touch at the teeth, and the editor snaps them into place when they are close.
  • Meshed gears turn in opposite directions.
  • Three gears that all touch each other jam, and the editor labels such a chain as Jammed.

Tips

  • Drag a gear near another and it clicks into mesh.
  • A gear's own size sets how fast it turns: a big one turns slower than a small one.

Where you'll meet it
