Volcanic wall (Possible Spoiler, Steam version)
« on: December 13, 2022, 11:52:44 am »
Umm... is this something brand new? I've never seen this before and can't find any mention of it on the wiki or Forum here. I'm not using any mods, have done nothing unusual to the game, this is 100% vanilla Steam version. I haven't yet tried to investigate further. I'm kinda concerned what I will find when I do.

Edit: Here's another screenshot, showing a z-level up. It's all made of obsidian, all the various gems only appear in the obsidian, and there's another smaller structure to the side that also is obsidian studded with gems.

There is, both hot and wet varieties. I lost several miners trying to investigate them. You should approach from above and channel down.

I have no idea where anything is. I have no idea what anything does. This is not merely a madhouse designed by a madman, but a madhouse designed by many madmen, each with an intense hatred for the previous madman's unique flavour of madness.

Is it possible to mine the outer gems without instantly activating FUN, or is it just too dangerous?

What about using the fortification trick that was used with candy spires?

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.
