So, we've been asking many local indie artists to submit songs to be used in Cave Digger 2 and this is the first one we're sharing publicly. Some of our most dedicated discord fans might've heard it before, but this time it still comes with a cool video!

We have some big plans for these songs in the world of Cave Digger 2, and you're going to see one in use sooner with the next content update, The Escape from Valley. This update will happen at the same time as we release the game on Oculus Applab and Sidequest.

Yes, that's right, we've started the porting to Quest and the release should be sometime in Q1 2022. Let's see how it goes!

This update will feature both permanent and limited time content. During this seasonal event, the frontier will have some spooky changes! Creepy night sky, graves to rob and a new variant zombie monster. The best stuff, however, is the totally new and permanent features.

[h2]New Tools[/h2]



A Shovel
Two-handed tool to dig from the muddy piles (and graves) on the ground.

A Goldpan
Wiggle the gold pan around the spots in the water to spawn some loot! This tool can be repurposed as a defensive item to block some nasty plasma shrimp projectiles.

[h2]Errands[/h2]



On the map stand, players can now find changing daily errands to run. You can pick three errands at the same time and by completing them, you'll be rewarded with some extra $$$.


[h2]First issue of the graphic novel[/h2]



I'm sure you've heard about Clayton Lee Jackson the third by now. You'll find the first collectible pieces of graphic novel laying around, which will reveal you something about the world you're digging in.


[h2]Special encounters[/h2]



Looks like some Shrimps you swatted in your previous runs, have risen back to life too to celebrate halloween.

Oh, and Shelley, the big mama nautiloid is hoping to meet you in the mines. She's getting hungry and lonely.



[h2]Hexabody physics and fire[/h2]



These two are experimental features. You can set things on fire, and you can jump and hang from the ledges. The next update will include biome 3, in which the climbing and jumping will become important. For now, just have fun with it.




[h2]Public matchmaking[/h2]

Find friends to play with via the matchmaking system in game. You can also try to find players on our discord channel.


[h2]New loots and wearables[/h2]



More to mine, more to wear! What more do you need to know? Oh right, the pumpkin head will be only available during the halloween season.
