We are back up and running! It only took a fully day of troubleshooting and a small fire that left me with a graphics card shaped paper weight.
Version 0.6 is finally here for you to test out. The full list of patch notes is in game but the highlights include a world revamp, cable shovel, and even doors and beds.

While they where never intended to completely replace hand mining at their point in the game they should make it start to feel like you need to do less and less…
