Chilly DevLogs from Alaska ! #26

Hello travelers!

Welcome to Alaska!
In this episode:
[h3]- specification of some special weapon
- new character! Elizabeth!
- using dynamite in mines![/h3]




The Harpoon rifle, also known as the Winchester Model 1895, was a popular choice among miners due to its reliability and accuracy. It was a lever-action rifle chambered in powerful cartridges like the .30-06 Springfield, which could easily take down large game like grizzly bears.
- is it true? Partially - yes! But partially - no... gonna change some things for a videogame purposes :D



[h3]Look at all the details! It looks like straight from a 1896 shopping album !
[/h3]





Meet Elizabeth - a tough and resourceful woman. Elizabeth is a skilled hunter and marksman, and she uses her wits and physical prowess to survive in the harsh wilderness.
Combine her with a Harpoon rifle from previous section and Elizabeth could take down both animals and potential threats from other prospectors who might try to steal her claim or harm her in some way!







Dynamite was another tool that miners used to extract gold from the earth.
By placing sticks of dynamite in the walls of a mine and then detonating them, miners could blast away large sections of rock and uncover veins of gold that might have been too deep to reach otherwise.
However, dynamite was dangerous to handle and required a steady hand and nerves of steel.

In our game you can also use it to quickly destroy some portions of rocks. But it will also destroy gold chunks... also dynamite is quite expensive. So use it wisely!



"Using dynamite in mines was not without risks. Accidents could and did happen, and miners who mishandled explosives could end up seriously injured or killed. However, the potential rewards of using dynamite were too great for many miners to resist, and the use of explosives became widespread during the gold rush era."



[h3]Detailed look at the dynamite 3D model. Looks nice, right? And not so "cartonish" red as you may think :D[/h3]
