Hi guys,

Don't give up hope! I've just received some super awesome news for us all..

First of all I'd like to welcome @Nefty to the Development team! Congrats!

To strengthen the case, the message of TM development being put on hold has been deleted and we can now assume that with their latest addition to the team development is back in motion!

And with that come's a statement from Nefty and even a sneak peak of development testing..

In the picture we can see successful multiplayer with players breaking blocks and it updating for all players. This is all we need to know that the development team are working as hard as they can to get the ball rolling again.

So do they need more team members? Or have they quit as the developing crew?

Hi Jack,

It’s difficult to tell at the moment. The message given was quite vague but implies to me that they’re taking a short break before having another go.

No doubt the team would benefit from more developers but at the moment it seems they’ve hit the same “bedrock” Craig reached a few years ago.

Hopefully things will pick up again soon, I’ll keep everyone posted on all updates via this thread.

Hi,

There’s a few things the game needs to do before it reaches newer consoles.

1) The game needs a successful rewriting as it’s in a pretty bad state
2) The game needs a successful monogame port as this will allow the game to run on lots of platforms
3) The game needs to pick up again when it is released for multiplayer

It’s not likely we’ll see console releases for a little while but once the PC multiplayer is released we should be in a better position and hopefully closer to console releases.

You can track the release info in the official total miner discord:

Hi Hydrazombie,

Thanks for your message! Currently the game development is going through a difficult transition and change of developers. All necessary bugs and fixes will be dealt with in due time. If you’re interested in understanding more you can join the discord or follow the TM PC 2.0? Thread.

Cheers,
Crab.
