'''Upgrade Complete 3mium''' is the third and currently last game in the ''Upgrade Complete'' series. Much like in the first two games, the ultimate goal is to purchase every available upgrade, which yet again involves earning in-game coins by playing a simple shoot-em-up. While the first two titles featured a classic 2-D sidescrolling space shooter, this version instead has the player control a space ship to defend a stationary base | '''Upgrade Complete 3mium''' is the third and currently last game in the ''Upgrade Complete'' series.

As the "3mium" tag implies, it is supposed to be a parody of modern "pay to win" games. Upon starting the game, it already assumes that the player has bought the "premium version" with all upgrades unlocked, inviting them to push a button to beat the game. This leads the player to a fake PayPal screen (actually a link to the Armor Games homepage), and closing it will cause the game to immediately revoke all upgrades, challenging the player to earn them from scratch, like in the previous two games. | As the "3mium" tag implies, it is supposed to be a parody of modern "pay to win" games.

Just like the [[Upgrade Complete II|second game in the series]], this version features a screamer in the form of a "Heartrate" upgrade, which actually comes in three different steps this time, the first two of which being intentionally non-scary. Upon attempting to unlock the first Heartrate upgrade, the game first displays a warning message, reading: "Warning Time! The 'Heartrate' upgrade features a 'jump scare'. It's teeeeerifying! It may not be good for weak hearts! Only upgrade this feature if you understand that it may be horrific!" | Just like the [[Upgrade Complete II|second game in the series]], this version features a screamer in the form of a "Heartrate" upgrade, which actually comes in three different steps this time, the first two of which being intentionally non-scary.
