Gradients are done with additional parameters to gfx.rectangle, so old code that gave the function too many parameters and expected them to be ignored may break.
As the color order of the sf2dlib changed, you have to change it in your code, or use the color.hex() function.
To fix the problems, just change "0xRRGGBBAA" to "0xAABBGGRR".
Also, the shader compiler changed to Picasso, so you'll need it in order to compile.
