⛏ Bottomless Mines - Alpha 2 Preview Notes (Patreon)

Been working on the bug reports everyone found in the previous Alpha 1 release. Here's a brief update for everyone on what's coming in Alpha 2!

Finished animations for Sapphire (the miner)

Jackhammer animations

More balancing

More Relics to find

Progression: Features will unlock as you play to learn each system one at a time

Hover Hints: Mouse-over certain buttons to get more information about them

New items: Coal & Fish

Coal Flakes - Found in Panning, Smelt 3 together for 1 Coal

Coal - Speed boost consumable for Refining/Smelting

Small Fish - Speed boost consumable for Tippy's next "shiny"

Outfit option: Kitty Ears & Bunny Ears

Temporary Alpha save

Looking forward to getting these new features out for you to test! Alpha 2 will be available in a few weeks on my $5 Tier. The Alpha versions won't have permanent save states, but I'll plan on making an Alpha temporary save state that won't mix with the Beta (permanent) saves.

There will be Alpha 3 for Bottomless Mines before the full public launch ✨
