Tl;dr below

Hey there, alien-worshipping miners and fashion-forward minettes of the frontier! 🏖️
Guess what time it is? It's summer, baby! 🌞 Time to soak up the sun, embrace the great outdoors, and flaunt your style in the one and only Cave Digger 2!

That's right, folks, it's back and better than ever. Get ready for the summer extravaganza, now renamed as Cave Drip 2 - Electric Boogaloo! 😎

Just like last time, it's your chance to showcase your in-game fashion prowess in Cave Digger 2. The judges (aka the devs) will be on the lookout for the most creative, hilarious, cool, and downright interesting outfits. The lucky winner will be crowned the prestigious title of @Underground Drip King 😎 on Discord and receive a mystery box delivered right to their doorstep! Oh, and we'll also pick one random winner because surprises are fun!

[h2]SHOW US YOUR DRIP[/h2]

Since the last event, Cave Digger 2: Dig Harder has added over 50 costumes and cosmetics for you to mix and match, allowing you to truly express yourself in the game.

By now, you should know the drill, but just in case you've been living under a rock (or a cave), once you've purchased your cabin, you can strut over to the mirror and change your costume to your heart's content. As for me, I rock the king drip with Jack-O-Lantern hat for my daily drip!

But hold on, don't limit yourself to costumes alone. Feel free to throw in some props and get your creative juices flowing. There are no restrictions on the backdrop either, so if you've got a buddy in the Discord or in real life, grab 'em and strike a pose together! Let your imagination run wild because the sky's the limit. Capture the most jaw-dropping screenshot or mind-blowing video you can think of.

With that being said, read the rules below for more details, and let's see what you've got! ːsteamhappyː

[h2]Hello Prospectors!⛏️ We're celebrating the 5th year anniversary of Cave Digger! 🎉[/h2]

It's already been 5 years since the first Cave Digger launched on Steam and other platforms.

Ever since the release, we added multiple endings to the games, updated the graphics, added more features, and expanded our game thanks to your support of the game.

Not only that, we had so many players, videos, and our community has been exploding with great members and contents.



To quote our art director AMP about pre-production in one of the dev blogs,

[h3]"At the time, Cave Digger 2 was broadly drawn out to be more of the same, just bigger, better and harder. We had everything on the table: MMO, crafting, trading, weapons, story campaign and spaceships." - AMP[/h3]

And now, let's dig out some old albums ⛏️ and check out some concept art from CaveDigger and Cave Digger 2! Can you recognize them? Comment if you can!

Howdy prospectors! 🤠

We're here with another community competition, April Fool's Giveaway!

Disclaimer: This is not an April fool's joke and the contest will end on April 30th.
April Fool's is just the theme :))


The event RULES are quite simple this time.

Tell us the best jokes that you have and whoever makes us laugh out the most will be the winner!
No limits to submission numbers.
Extra points if the jokes are related to Cave Digger!

Please keep the jokes civil, meaning no racism, sexism, or bigotry.

e.g.:
Why don't miners tell April Fools' jokes?
They'd crack each other up.

What do Miners call their penis?
Mein Schaft.


This time, the REWARD is a physical copy of Cave Digger 2!

Do you like telling jokes?
Do you like collecting Cave Digger 2 merch?
Do you want to have a physical copy?
Now you can!

The winner might also have a chance for their jokes to get added to the game.

Disclaimer: The physical copy is for PSVR2 but if you want a Steam keycode, that could also be arranged.
