Gear you can upgrade
The three upgrades named on the Lunarlit Works listing — broom, backpack and moon boots.
From the listing
| Item | What it changes | Why it matters | Source phrase | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Broom | Your sweeping tool for clearing dust and debris. | Raise this when sweeping itself feels slow. | “Upgrade your broom, backpack, and moon boots” | Listing |
| Backpack | How much you can carry before you sell. | Raise this when collecting is interrupted by a full pack. | “Upgrade your broom, backpack, and moon boots” | Listing |
| Moon boots | Movement gear named with the broom and backpack. | Raise this when getting around the surface is the bottleneck. | “Upgrade your broom, backpack, and moon boots” | Listing |

Starting states
Just started
Confirm place ID, then raise the broom so the first sweep → sell cycle actually finishes.
First sale done
Raise the backpack when a full pack cuts the run short; keep the broom moving if clearing is still the drag.
Base running
Keep the three named gear items stable, then inspect robot and base requirements in-game before spending on automation.
Derived only from the official listing loop (sweep, sell, upgrade gear, then robots and base) — not from invented tier charts. For Cleaning Rover purchase facts see Robots.
Gear first
In-game only
Upgrade prices, level requirements, exact effects per level, robot costs, base requirements and zone thresholds are not published on the Lunarlit Works listing. Check those numbers in-game before you plan a spend — this page only names the three gear items the listing itself names.
