A Game About Digging a Hole Together is real Hey everyone, Ben here! Last year I released A Game About Digging a Hole, a small game I built in just a few weeks as a fun side project while I was mainly working on Solarpunk. I genuinely never expected it to become what it did. Seeing so many people play the game, share videos and just have fun with this little project has been completely surreal.Thank you to everyone who played it and supported me. You genuinely changed my life. ❤️ You wanted to dig moreAfter release, there were two things I kept hearing from you again and again: “We want more to do” and “LET US DIG WITH FRIENDS!” So I started thinking about what a second game could look like. I eventually decided to hand development over to my friends at Mi'Pu'Mi Games, who already worked on the console versions of A Game About Digging a Hole and Solarpunk.

🌻 We're almost there! Hey everyone, time flies when you're having a good time, so we want to bring you the final sneak peak before the release of the biggest Solarpunk patch to date! We're working on the final patch details this week and are sending the update to the platform holders early next week. This will start a validation process that allows XBOX, Playstation and Nintendo to make sure the update can go live on their platforms, which takes around 2 weeks. So the update should go live end of the month! 🔥 Be sure to also check the past updates to get a bigger picture and be assured, we packed even more into the patch when it goes live. 🙂 🌍 Cross-Platform Multiplayer The biggest feature in the next update will be crossplay multiplayer. This was a bit more difficult than anticipated, but but with the next patch everyone - PC, Epic, PlayStation, Xbox, or Nintendo - can finally play together! In the meantime, we want to give you some more context about the upcoming features. ☑️ A Quick Reminder - Feature Voting We've seen you make great use of the feature upvote system, our webpage for submitting and upvoting feature ideas, and are happy to announce that we will
