We'd also like to give a shout-out to Let's Suffer Together, our streamer for Next Fest. LST has a long history with UnderMine. In fact, one of our most controversial achievements is named after him.

When he isn't streaming to the UnderMine 2 store page, you can find him here on Twitch.

We hope you enjoy!

Hello peasants!

We're releasing a demo of UnderMine 2 ahead of June's Next Fest! The demo releases May 29th and will include the following:

• The Prologue and Tutorial
  
• The first two zones of the game: The Goldmine and The Laboratories
  
• The first two bosses of the game
  
• The Peasant as a playable character
  
• Local co-operative play or online via Steam Remote Play
  
• A fair amount (but not all!) of the items from the Early Access build
  

Your progress in the demo contributes to the Early Access version of UnderMine 2, which releases on July 22nd. Get a head-start now!

Join us, Thorium, for an afternoon of UnderMine 2 questions and answers!

It has officially been six months since we unveiled UnderMine 2, and we've been buried in development, building a ton of new content.

We're eager to show you what we have been working on and to take your questions about the game! Questions are being collected on Discord. Post your questions in the #questions-for-the-devs channel, or upvote the ones you want to hear more about.

We'll answer the most upvoted questions from Discord, take questions from the chat, discuss new features, and show parts of the game we haven't shown before. In case you missed our first Q&A, you can watch the archived video here.

Make sure to follow us on Twitch so you don't miss out. The stream will be Thursday, November 7th, at 2:00 pm PDT!

We hope you're all excited after the announcement of UnderMine 2. We've been collecting community questions in Discord and plan to answer them in an upcoming Dev Stream on Friday May 17th.

There is still time to get your question in, or upvote an existing question you'd like us to answer. We'll be answering the most popular questions, discussing new features with chat, and showing parts of the game we haven't shown before.

Jump into Discord and go on over to #questions-for-the-devs to find out what has already been asked and ask your own question.
