Chilly DevLogs from Alaska ! #73 - Blast your way!

Welcome to a seventy-three DevLog for Alaska Gold Fever!
[p]
Hello, explorers and adventurers!

h yes, dynamite. The elegant solution to all of life’s problems: rocks in your way? Dynamite. No gold? Dynamite. Neighbor claiming your claim? Dynamite... wait, no, that's illegal (on Alaska i think).
Anyway.

Now With More Boom
[p]Implementing explosives in a game that relies on semi-realistic terrain physics was hard.

Of course, you can’t just have dynamite. You need a way to use it. So we built the "Detonation Device™" you know the one - wooden box, spring-loaded plunger, cartoon energy.

You wire it up, you slam the plunger down, and you pray.
We’ve also added consequences. No more infinite boomsticks. Dynamite costs resources. It’s heavy.

It’s dangerous. We are thinking of adding a situation like it can blow up your own equipment if you’re careless. More realistic but much harder for players. What you think? Should we add this feature? Tell us in comments!

Want to see the dynamite in action? We’ve posted a clip on TikTok showing off the boom and the Detonation Device™ doing its thing. Go check it out! And while you’re there, make sure to follow us - we’re sharing behind-the-scenes footage, development sneak peeks, and all the chaotic moments that don’t make it into the patch notes. ;)
