Chilly DevLogs from Alaska ! #37 Welcome to the gold mine

Welcome to a thirty-seventh DevLog for Alaska Gold Fever!


Hello travelers!

We're back with more tales from the frosty frontiers of Alaska Gold Fever! Hold on to your pickaxes, because dynamite is making its grand entrance into the gold mines!

Gold Mines - A Miner's Playground

Prepare to be amazed as we've revamped the interiors of the gold mines to be more interactive than ever. It's not just about swinging your pickaxe anymore. Navigate through perilous tunnels, solve puzzles to uncover hidden chambers, and watch out for unexpected twists and turns!



Dynamite - Unleash the Boom!


Ever had that feeling when you're mining and just wish you could speed things up a bit? Well, wish granted! Say hello to my little friend! - dynamite!
Just plant it and... BOOM! New path is unlocked. Don't worry it wont destroy the gold mine but we had this idea in the beggining. It will be just too hard on players ;)
Dynamite - Useful in a lot of situations and rememeber- it's not about destruction; it's about efficiency, right?



Each rock rendered separately


We will rock you!
Mining isn't just about swinging your pickaxe blindly anymore.
With our latest game build, we've introduced rock mechanics that add layers of strategy to your prospecting adventures - different rocks now have distinct characteristics.
What does is mean?
Some are tougher to crack, others might crumble easily, but you cant just "click left mouse button" to destroy everything (well with dynamite you can). We created the mining gameplay-loop that you must focus on each pickaxe swing! It's not just about hitting rocks; it's about understanding them :D



Prospect Smart, Not Hard


So, say goodbye to mindless tapping! Each swing of your pickaxe now matters.
Analyze the rocks in your path, and choose your strikes wisely.
Utilize different techniques for various types of rocks – from gentle taps to mighty swings – to reveal the glittering secrets within. Remember, the real gold might be just a chip away ! (yes, it is)


Never look how first person game looks like in other perspectives :D

Gold Galore - The Hunt Continues


Prospecting wouldn't be half as thrilling without the glittering allure of gold, and we've made sure there's plenty to go around. So, gear up, grab your pickaxe, and get ready to chase that elusive yellow treasure. Look how amny i collected! (too bad it is just in game...)


100kk gold pls... 100kk gold pls... 100kk gold pls... 100kk gold pls...

Rock 'n' Gold!


At the end i wanted to show you some OLD, like REALLY old screenshot from the beggining of the first gold mine in our game. You can check it below :D
So, yes the doors and wooden beams was first, the rocks and tunnel was made later :D


Ah, yes the fiolet hands. If you are the Unity engine developer you know what that means :D
