Hey everyone!
After a summer of (trying to) relax, update 2.2 is finally ready for release. This update has added & changed the following things:
Content
Eternal mine
Contrary to its name, the Eternal rock was seemingly shattered by a powerful miner. In an attempt to replace it, the mine master started desperately searching for new mines, and he was not disappointed with his findings.
The Eternal mine is a new, fully idle mine that can be upgraded in various ways. It costs 1 Ancient shard to unlock (miners who had the Eternal rock will have it unlocked automatically). The mine can be upgraded to yield more tokens, extract more blocks, find more items and even work offline.
New items
4 New items have been added.
- Sticky bomb - Acts the same as a bomb but sticks to surfaces it touches
- Sticky dynamite - Acts the same as a dynamite but sticks to surfaces it touches
- Time orb - Use this to instantly restock the shop, geodes and start a random event
- Ancient map - Use this to instantly open a dark mine
New events
3 New events have been added

Combat changes
PvE combat has been reworked slightly.
