UnderMine In More Languages!
We're very excited to announce that we are working with our localization group to bring you UnderMine in the following new languages:
French
Spanish
Simplified Chinese
Japanese
Korean
We will continue to translate the game into other languages as we can. We're also investigating ways to get our community involved in translation. Whether that means polishing up some lines, translating announcements like this, or helping us with small, spot translations for new items and features.
The game no longer crashes if unable to initialize the Steam API. If Steam fails to initialize, you'll still be able to play, however achievements will be disabled until the problem is resolved.
If you have encountered this problem, please check the Steam Discussion Forums for solutions.

IRL and Game Updates!
Hey Everyone!
Big week! Seriously though, we are blown away with the reception to UnderMine. Derek and I spent late nights talking through our thoughts on how the game would be received. Our biggest worry was that we would release the game and no one would care. Well... we can lay that worry to rest, because it seems like a lot of people care, which is incredible.
We are very excited for the future of UnderMine and we look forward to working along side you to turn it into something very special. And with that said, here is another update!
This will be the last update before PAX West. Both of us are attending so there won't be any time to work on the game. However, if you are in Seattle and attending the show please come by the Indie Megabooth and say 'hi' to us.

Increased the gold from rocks and walls that appear after killing RPM, but before killing Selt

Damage from electrified water now ignores the peasant's grace period
Damage from spikes now ignores the peasant's grace period
Other Changes
Mouse aim is now set to on by default for mouse and keyboard controls
A quick explanation about the grace period changes:
The peasant's grace period is the invulnerable state he enters after he takes damage. We increased this from 0.3 seconds to 0.5 seconds. This will hopefully reduce some of the frustration from taking rapid hits from enemies.
Because we expanded the grace period, we needed to make sure other types of damage were not giving the peasant a "damage shield." Status effects like fire and poison now ignore the grace period, which means they do not interact with it. This is so that the peasant can still take regular hits while on fire, or so that he can't skip over spikes by running really quickly.
