Once upon a time...

Before we wrap up for the holidays

I just wanted to make one more post to thank everyone who played Volcanoids, participated in events, or even just followed the development this year! We truly appreciate you all!

Got some EPIC updates coming next year that I'm already excited about!

THANK YOU for 2022! See you in 23!!

Behold The AUTOMINER

As much fun as posting teasers and reading your speculations is, I'd say it's time we balance it out by finally revealing something again!

So as a lot of you masterfully figured out from the teasers, the upcoming update is going to revolutionize mining by introducing...

[h3]Mining Drones[/h3]

These bad boys will let you automate mining in the later stages of the game. That way, you will be able to focus on the things that are actually important instead of stumbling around with your pickaxe, looking for some coal.



Just select which resource you need using the module and they'll be on their way!



Once they finish mining, they'll return and deposit the ore in the ship's inventory. After that, if there's more ore nearby, they will head out again until there's none to be mined or until you stop them.

Now, will this new tech stop at mining, or will it be used for something else as well?
