Thank you for your reply.
It's interesting though, I thought it might be just a glitch (for example, in the Itch's butler) or that the numbers aren't necessarily synchronised between the 3 versions.
As I've said before, it seemed that the last few days there was an update pretty much every day (admirable!) and, at the same time, people kept adding new equipable items to the Wiki, which I couldn't find without updating, so my guess was that those smaller updates contained those items (and possibly other mysteries).
The last item added there were the gloves, but I was unable to find any in the Windows version despite opening tens of chests (using the jump pad route to grab about 10 of them in like 2 minutes) for a few ingame days. Every other possible item dropped many times and by the end the "multi-chest areas" looked like a laser show. Additionally, the most recent Windows version available doesn't even have any equipment slot that the gloves could go into, which only confused me further.
I've noticed that the Linux version is one number ahead, so, just for fun, I DLed that and combined the files of the two to get it running on Windows. There were now 8 equipment slots, including a new one for hand items and I immediately looted a few pairs of gloves in the first spot I tried. Fun fact: it also made the clouds appear. Obviously, the game isn't meant to be used like that, so the performance was sketchy and I closed the game soon after to restore the Windows version to how it should be.
