- Small Update 1.2.3 - 6 January 2026
Patch Notes Small Update 1.2.3 This update focuses on early game progression and some QOL. Some might see the beginning of the game as a bit TOO slow, and this is not what I want when it comes to first impressions and player retention. General Updates QOL: When clicking Unlock for your second floor purchase, it will now automatically select Mineable button. QOL: Current Area number will now show on the Next Floor unlock panel. Decreased material offline gain. It was set too high. Floor Updates When a Dwarf fully mines an area, it will now give extra materials as a reward. The reward amount and material type will be based on how many floors you have and Ore Progression unlocks. Floors will now start on Auto-Mine. Auto-Unlock will have to be manually enabled if you want to progress through areas. This will prevent players from getting confused why they are losing materials. A helpful tip…

- Hotfix 1.1.4 - 9 April 2025
Patch Notes Hotfix 1.1.4 Pushing fixes as per Hardened Dust Disappearing From Machines Some of these new issues (fixed now hopefully) are due to my reinstallation of windows. When I push my changes to our git repo it somehow ignored some files and I didn't realize this until now.

Fixes Fixed Hardened Dust not showing the correct sprite. Sprites were loading from a folder which was wrong. Fixed Hardened Dust being removed from Placeables when crafting a new item. Fixed The Surface not able to generate due to a missing prefab. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2220570/Dwarves_Mining_Idle/

- Hotfix 1.1.1 - 5 February 2025
Thanks to Rolar8 for pointing this out on the forum: https://steamcommunity.com/app/2220570/discussions/2/597391905481823373/ Patch Notes General Updates Auto Unlock and Auto Mine options are now available in the area unlock panel. Since Floor Actions has to be unlocked now, you'll be able to select 'Auto Mine' to gather materials instead of continiuously wasting materials on automatically unlocking new areas. You'll be able to select this option whenever a Dwarf is waiting to mine after depleting an area. Second Floor Unlock area requirement is now 1 Area required instead of 25. This will allow you to unlock the second floor without needing a higher area requirement if you choose Auto Mine before purchasing your second floor. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2220570/Dwarves_Mining_Idle/
- Progression Update 1.1 & Idler Fest! - 4 February 2025
Hello new and returning dwarf idlers! It's 2025 and I hope everyone had an amazing holiday and start to the New Year! Progression Update 1.1 will focus on new type of progression system and more of a even better user-friendly experience. Dwarves Mining Idle is 50% off during the Idler Fest event. Dwarves Mining Idle didn't have any progression information or information regarding what you had unlocked and in turn most players didn't know what to do or look at. Recipes were already unlocked and players kind of had no clue what recipes you had either besides going to an unlocked placeable (Furnace, etc). We've had some feedback on our UI, seems most players still couldn't grasp it. Seeing how players still had issues with this, we've taken the liberty to remove all the buttons on the UI and put them all into one button (Game Menu) and one window using a tab system. Each one of these tabs…

- Dwarf Weekend News #16 - 7 July 2024
Hello fellow Dwarf adventurers! It has been awhile since my last update and there's been a good reason for that. Firstly, I would like to say I've been consistently working on The Surface 1.0 after the previous Major Overhaul Update was released. The artwork took a bit, but it's all done and I've been working on the mechanics of The Surface. Also, don't forget to take advantage of the Summer Sale while you can! It ends 11th of July. That being said, I will be starting a new job Monday (8th of July). I will still be working hard on the new update around 4-6 hours a day, of course! It won't hinder any progress whatsoever. I wanted to update everybody on this so you don't feel like you're being left out. With the upcoming 1.0 update I have some resolution fixes, along with tooltip position fixes. I don't want to spoil too much of The Surface so screenshots and more information will have to…
- Hotfix 0.8.09 - 10 June 2024
Patch Notes Hotfix 0.8.09 General Retweaked Area Cost requirements for certain materials. Some of the material requirements seemed a bit high that were required to have at early areas. Slightly increased Wood offline gain. Dwarf Skill Points will now show as a decimal value to deflect confusion when it rounds levels higher or equal to 1.5k. If you had level 1,500 it previously rounded off to 2 skill points which may have caused confusion. Quality of Life Added a Viewable Only Next Area Cost panel in the Floor Actions Window. It allows you to view the cost of the next area on a Mineable Floor. Fixes Fixed an issue that caused enemy elimination on offline calculation to be too high.
