Cave Digger 2: Dig Harder!

The player is a prospector who begins their adventure in a seemingly abandoned camp with a goal to extract valuables from the caves, to trade them for new tools, upgrades, and locations in order to advance their frontier exploration. To unveil the secrets of the Valley, the player follows the breadcrumbs left by a previous explorer known only as Clayton. The story has multiple endings, each revealing a different side of it.

Tools and progression

Gear up with the tools you like and explore the ever-shifting caves ahead. Exchange your loot for money to buy equipment. With new gadgets and upgrades, you’ll be ready to go to new locations and dig deeper into the mountains than any adventurer before. Or at least that’s what the Merchant Trading Company would tell when selling you their gear… But beware! You’re not alone. It’s also good to keep a six-shooter close just in case.

Multiplayer

You can gather a party of up to 4 players. Your role in the excavation team is totally up to you! As long as everybody is pulling more than their weight in gold back to the surface, you’ll get paid handsomely in official Merchant Dollars issued by the Merchant Trading Company (not recognized as legal tender outside of the Merchant Trading Company). Co-op supports crossplay public matchmaking and private group invitations. The player customization options range from clothes to faces to hats.

The story

The frontier has its mysteries and it hides them well. Follow in the footsteps of the treasure hunter Clayton and discover the strange history of the Valley and the caves below. Explore old mines, nautical caves, ruins of an ancient civilization and find the pages to a tale of greed, eldritch power and secrets beyond space & time. Who the mysterious Clayton was and what he did in the Valley becomes clear in the end, but is it really the end?

The story of Clayton’s exploration of the Valley is told in comic book form inside the game. Cave Digger 2 has also many hidden endings, each showing a new side to the story.

Features:

• Discoveries, dangers, and digging
• Mine your way onwards with a faithful pickaxe, good old dynamite or a high-tech hammer
• Procedurally generated partially destructible cave networks
• Grab the sparkling revolver and the gold-pan-turned-to-a-shield when you have to protect yourself. TNT works fine too, just mind your team members if you aren’t lone wolfing!
• Additional gadgets for utility
• Tools, weapons, and gadgets evolve through upgrades
• Collectable comic book Clayton – The Greed reveals the history of the Valley throughout the player’s journey
• Multiple discoverable narratives built into the game as ending goals, each revealing a different angle to the story
• 1-4 player crossplay co-op of private groups or public matchmaking
• Player avatar customization with dozens of things from clothes to faces to hats

About the game

ArtPulse offers an artistic VR sandbox to play and express your creativity in. Spawn and combine shapes, colors, and freehand painting to sync them seamlessly into the background music. You don’t need to be an experienced artist or musician to make cool stuff, but you can just create and let the game elevate it!

Each shape and color emits a different sound, which will sync with the background song that the player chooses. Having no rules allows you to do whatever you want to. Fly around spawning shapes or create a tree in the colors of a rainbow.

Features

• 6 base songs (for now!) to create a soundscape on
• A toolkit full of unique visuals and sound effects
• A color wheel to select different tunes
• Customizable cinematic, endless and time-limited modes
• Free flying movement

Minimum system requirements

• OS: Windows 10
• Processor: intel i5-4590 equivalent or greater
• Memory: 8 GB RAM
• Graphics: NVIDIA GTX 970 / AMD 290 equivalent or greater
