Unknown Item - Locke

22 March 2015: Today, Growtopia is being paid a visit by Locke The Traveling Salesman! He comes once a day a month to hawk his fabulous wares, though this time he will stick around a day and a half to introduce himself.

Locke The Traveling Salesman, or Locke, was implemented into the game on 22 March 2015 to tackle the issue of the inflation of World Locks in the game, as well as to introduce new 'gadgets and gizmos'.

When Locke spawns in a world, 500 random players will get a special broadcast, "Locke has stopped by the world <world name>! Go buy stuff from him!", indicating that he is in a world. He stays in a world for 10 minutes before going to another one.

Appearance

Locke wears a Pink Fedora, Distinguished Grey Hair, Pink Suitcoat, and Fancy Pants. He has a tanned skin tone.

Patches and Updates

On 29 February 2016, there was a major balance patch in the game. One of the patches was that the price of Megaphones were increased from 10 World Locks to 20 World Locks. The goal was to decrease the broadcast activity in the game.

On 18 March 2016, Hamumu made a post regarding of Locke's schedule. Locke now comes twice a month, once in the first half of the month, and another in the second half of the month, instead of once a month.

Trivia

Upon entering Locke's menu, he gives a comment on how many locks the player currently has in his backpack.
When you enter a world that Locke is in, a message will appear, saying, "Locke is currently in this world hawking his fabulous wares!"
When Locke leaves the world, a message will appear, saying, "Well, I wouldn't be much of a traveling salesman if I didn't travel. I'll see you guys later!"
