Let’s get to it!

New “Crazy King” game-type:


Enter the king zone to gain points for your team, first team to 150 wins. Oh..except the king zone keeps moving around the map constantly so don’t get too comfortable.

New Mutant Type: The Cuddler


These buggers will jump on your face and jumble up your controls. Luckily you and your teammates can shoot them off before they do too much damage.

New Destructo-duck weapon:


Fly this duck around the mines until you find your target. Careful though! Because your body will be vulnerable while you are controlling the duck.

Arrow Traps:


There’s another new way to die in the mines: Arrow Traps.

New Achievements:

Want more achievements? Well, you’re in luck because there are 51 new achievements coming with this new update.

Adjustable Bot Difficulties:

As the developer of the game, I’m even having a tough time beating these new “Hard” level bots.

A big ol’ pile of bug fixes:

Lots of stability improvements coming with this new update. The full patch notes will be coming with the launch update.

Just over 2 weeks until the big update 🙂 :)! See you soon in the mines!

]]> So, Miner Meltdown is officially 1 month away from its transition from Early Access to Full Release!
 

Many have asked me what is the difference of being in Early Access vs Full Release: When Miner Meltdown hit Early Access, it had 1 game-mode, no bots, no unlockable items, and it wasn’t overly hard to find a fair share of bugs. It was playable, but definitely not a complete game. The game is now very close to being the game that I envisioned making, and this next update will mark a big milestone.
 

I’m aligning the game’s biggest update yet with its full release: New weapons, brand new gametype, and more surprises!
I’ll share more details on the new features as we get closer to the date!

 
Miner Meltdown has made huge strides since hitting Early Access in February, and I’m super thankful to the community for helping shape the direction of the game.

Stay tuned!

And P.S, If you haven’t already picked up the game, it’s still 40% for the Steam Summer Sale!
