Halloween special update!
It was a dark and stormy night
The big Halloween special is here! A free content patch for the owners of Cave Digger: Riches DLC.
The sun has set and a cold wind blows through the wilderness. Miners of the town gather in the warm saloon to get some good ol’ booze to warm up themselves - as usually. Soon they come to notice that something feels off. The air in the saloon smells weird and the shadows in the corners are eating all the light around... Even the drinks don’t seem to make you feel any better!
Suddenly the floor of the saloon creaks and a menacing laughter echoes from the mine shaft, followed by a dreaded screeching. Maybe one of the miners is stuck down there in the mushroom caverns? The bravest miner decides to go find out what’s going on. As he jumps on the elevator, he sees a strange looking pumpkin just laying there on a chair. The miner squints his eyes and notices a sign behind the pumpkin, reading: “Eat me!”.
Eat the spooky pumpkin sitting in the saloon and head down to the mine. A new ending is waiting for you there if you manage to find all 10 pumpkins to decorate your elevator! Watch out for trick or treaters though...
Supporter's pack
Supporter’s extras are now in their own Supporter’s Pack, and the old Supporter’s Edition has been removed from the store.
The new pack is priced at $14.99 and it contains the golden pickaxe + name in the wanted poster. There are three wanted posters in the saloon, where all the supporter’s pack (or old supporter’s edition) owner’s Steam nicks are randomized and shown each time the player gets back to the saloon.
The price is a bit lower compared to the previous pack, and you can bundle the supporter’s pack nicely with the Riches DLC! Grab that shiny golden pickaxe and get mining. It is what the nation needs!

We’ve launched a closed beta of Cave Digger: Riches, the first DLC of Cave Digger. The selected hard workers are breaking the game and we’re fixing what they leave behind. This, of course, also means that we now have a release date for the DLC.
Cave Digger: Riches will be released on 30th of August. Since the last update, we’ve come to a more detailed plan with what the features will be.
Multiple endings with Nuke. You gotta get creative to find out them all!
A glove that holds great powers within.
Keys… Hmm, I wonder where they’ll fit?
Competitive mode for the toughest miners. You’ll have an identical run with other player in this mode, to really see who’s the fastest and hardest miner.
Upgrades for each main tool. Mining will never be the same again.
Besides the new ways and things to dig, we’ve also tried to make the game more engaging, entertaining and imaginative. We think that Cave Digger is not just about digging, but also about experiencing surprising things, discovering easter eggs and so on.
A new patch for Cave Digger is upon us while we wait for the DLC to be released!
Change log:
-Windows Mixed Reality controls switched to use the Vive scheme
-Fixed the stuck while falling trip bug
-Snap turn improvements
-Telekinesis improvements to explosives box and the nuke
