Info

■ Our voxel in the game is completely reworked. Every claim will be reset.

■ Activated bugreport system again

This update includes major changes regarding voxels and multiplayer.
As this is still a very early phase, the update will be released on the Beta Branch "Experimental" in Steam.
This way, every player can decide whether they want to test this already or rather wait a little longer until the update is included in the standard.

To switch to the "Experimental" branch, you simply have to right-click on Gold Hunter in your game library, select the menu item "Settings" and log in to "Betas" for "Experimental". You can then download this version directly.
Please note that this will reset every claim.

You can switch back at any time if you change your mind by logging out of "Experimental" under "Betas". This will automatically download the previous version again.

It has been two weeks since the last update and you are probably wondering what has happened in the meantime.

As you already know, we are currently working intensively on the next major update. We have already made some good progress for the update.
However, because no one can work all the time, and because we are also affected by the summer, we have taken a break for a few days.
We hope you have some understanding for this.

The regular streams will start again on 4 July, and will then take place every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
The next update - which you are all waiting for - will come about a week after 4 July.

Hello everyone!

As some of you already know, we have paused the live streams for this week in order to work more intensively on the game as well as on important bugs, the multiplayer and the performance.

However, even though we have already made good progress in this regard, some of the functions we are currently working on still need to be expanded and, of course, tested very extensively before we can release them to you in a new update.

For this reason, we unfortunately need more time, so that the live streams will also be paused for the time being until the next status update.

As always, we will keep you informed as soon as we have news for you and therefore ask you for a little more patience.

We wish you a nice weekend!
