[h3]Hey everyone![/h3]
Hope you're all doing great! Big day today; after a free content update to the base game yesterday, I'm now launching 2 new DLCs; one for the original Mining Mechs and one for Super Mining Mechs.

Now you might be wondering "do I really need these DLCs?", and the answer to that is "absolutely not". However - my wife told me to convince you anyways because she would like me to keep paying my part of our mortgage. So here are 5 reasons you should get the new DLCs:

Reason 1: They're fun. (I promise)
Reason 2: You can tame this jumpy camel:
Reason 3: You can dig upwards in a submarine mech:
Reason 4: There's a 20% launch discount, so they cost less than a Starbucks coffee.
Reason 5: They're really fun and it's the weekend guys I mean come on.

I can hardly imagine you're not fully convinced after this amazing marketing effort, but in case you'd like to read more about the Camel Chaos DLC you can check out this post, or if you'd like to read more about the Toxic Treasures DLC check out this post. Otherwise, you can wishlist / purchase them below:

Oh and since people have been asking me to release the Super Mining Mechs OST ever since launch, I've decided to release that today as well:

Lastly, I should mention there's an extra discount for people who already own the base games. This bundle will get you an additional 30% (yes, on top of the 20% launch discount) on everything: https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/46085/Mining_Mechs__Complete_Franchise/

And as always - thank you all for your continued support! -Barry

[h3]Hey everyone![/h3]
Hope you're all doing great! With the upcoming DLC content planned for Friday, I wanted to make sure there's something new to play in the base game as well. So today I'm showcasing a (free) base game content update that's coming tomorrow, one day ahead of the upcoming DLCs.

Tomorrow's content update includes the following:

• 2 new maps
  
• A new 'rock' type
  
• 10 Trading cards
  
• 5 New achievements

[h3]New maps[/h3]
There are two new maps, one on planet Frostera and one on planet Vulcanar. These are the fourth maps on each planet and will unlock after completing the third maps. They also include additional mines so you can build new mining sites for additional passive resources.

[h3]New 'rock' type[/h3]
You might be wondering how a new type of rock could possibly be interesting, however, this rock is actually diggable! You'll encounter these rocks on Frostera and Vulcanar. Although you can dig right through them without the need of any bombs, they will freeze or overheat your mech, so you need to cool down for a bit until you can continue. Of course the overheating and freezing passives will help you cool down much faster!

[h3]Trading Cards[/h3]
Starting from tomorrow, Super Mining Mechs will have Steam trading cards enabled, which means you will randomly find cards as you play the game. Turn them into an awesome badge to unlock Steam wallpapers and emoji's to spice up your Steam profile.

[h3]New achievements[/h3]
By popular request, I'm adding a handful of achievements as well. I got asked many times to add new achievements in the DLC, but sadly it's not possible to add seperate achievements to DLC content. This means that if I would add achievements that require the DLC content, it would become impossible for players to get 100% of the achievements without purchasing the DLC. I don't think it's fair to force people to get the DLC just to get the achievements, so I won't be adding any new achievements tied to the new DLC content. However, of course it's still possible to expand the range of achievements of the base game, so I'm adding 5 new achievements!

[h3]Please Wishlist![/h3]
Lastly - please don't forget to wishlist the upcoming DLC / soundtrack. It helps out a lot for the Steam algorithm and makes sure you get notified when they launch this Friday. This way you won't miss the launch discount!

Hey everyone!

Hope you're all doing great! As you might know, I'm currently working on two DLCs, one for Mining Mechs and one for the sequel Super Mining Mechs. Both DLCs are set to launch at the end of this month on Friday February 28th.

In a recent post I talked about the Toxic Treasures DLC for Super Mining Mechs, so this week I'd like to take some time to talk about the contents of the upcoming Camel Chaos DLC for the original Mining Mechs!

But first, please take some time to wishlist both DLC here to be notified when they launch! It also helps a lot for the Steam algorithm :)

[h3]About Camel Chaos[/h3]
This brand new adventure takes you to the desert, as weird animal noises have been detected underground... and that can only mean one thing; you're needed for another mining adventure.

As you dig down you'll encounter lots of wild camels. Although friendly, these are a jumpy bunch, and so you need to catch them to calm them down. You can then ride them around to unlock gates and doorways.

The new DLC also features 5 brand new mechs, 13 new resources to mine and a lot of underground pyramids connect your piping system to. And can you find the secret extra pyramid?

[h3]Pricing:[/h3]
Mining Mechs - Camel Chaos: $0.99
Super Mining Mechs - Toxic Treasures: $1.99
Both DLCs will have a launch discount, and there will also be a bundle to get an additional discount when you get both DLCs at once!

PS: I've received a lot of requests to release the OST of Super Mining Mechs ever since the game launched, so I'm also releasing the OST alongside these DLCs! If you're into OSTs you can find it here.

[h3]Please Wishlist![/h3]
Lastly - please don't forget to wishlist both DLC. It helps out a lot for the Steam algorithm and makes sure you get notified when they launch. This way you won't miss the launch discount!

And as always - thank you all for your continued support! I'd love to hear your thoughts on the upcoming DLC and if you have any questions please feel free to ask them below! :)
