AN EPIC JOURNEY INTO THE UNKNOWN!
SteamWorld Dig is a hardcore platform mining adventure game for Nintendo 3DS.
Take the role as Rusty, a lone mining steambot, as he arrives to an old mining town in great need. Dig your way through the old earth, gaining riches while uncovering the ancient threat that lurks below...
To be released in the Nintendo eShop™ in mid 2013.
GAME FEATURES
- Carve a path through the earth, and explore a deep underground world full of secrets, treasure and terrors.
- Uncover the remnants of Human civilization, a degenerate race of drunken, dynamite-wielding troglodytes.
- Meet the weird and interesting townsfolk of Tumbleton and help the community get back on its feet.
- Beautiful, high-res graphics with dynamic lights and multiple parallaxed background layers.
- Not another 3D effect showcase nor a cheap port; we’re making an Actual Game™!

@beat and @Cyb3rnite: yep, it sure does. We're drawing all our graphics in vector format, so that we can use it for more hi-res purposes - posters, gorgeous screenshots and what have you - and then we scale down for the 3DS. Still looks fabulous on the 3DS though, and the gameplay is coming along nicely. We just recorded an early beta gameplay video - I'll post a video link in a separate post here!

Very much looking forward to this one. If it doesn't get released in the Australian eShop I may have to cut someone.

We now have an official release date! Looks like you'll have to wait through the first part of the summer, but who'd like to spend the best months of the year underground anyway? STEAMWORLD DIG WILL BE AVAILABLE WORLDWIDE ON AUGUST 8, 2013.
