An independent team is working on GMS 2, on top of the one that already supports GMS1 in smaller numbers.
Our intention is to develop GMS2, but we do not want to leave our 7-year-old community without support. Therefore, in addition to open communication about GMS2, we want to treat GMS1 players fairly and still support the game. Stay tuned. Really soooon you will see more materials!!!


We’re always open to your feedback – if you have suggestions or additional ideas you’d like to see in the game, let us know in the comments! 💬
Remember, we’ll keep you updated on our progress and any changes to the schedule. 🛠️

Hey, Miners! 🏆

Recently we discovered a bug where two water towers on Waterfall Valley would switch the input values. It caused them to stop working for some players. We refunded you the $150 000 for repairing the water towers on Waterfall Valley. Once you set them up again the problem should be gone.



Changelog:

• Water towers on Waterfall Valley had to be refunded and will work correctly from now on.
  
• Drill indicator
  
• Water in buckets is more visible
