Yeah, they float on "crossroads". Once miners mine new tile of a tunnel, relevant wooden support or lamp is created. If player will change direction of a miner, background in old tiles does not change. It is rather simply "mechanism".

Making rounded corners is unfortunately not possible. Sorry.

I think these are two different games. And these wooden support is a background only.

Sorry, I don't know what do you mean by asking this question. You want to ask something special, or you just don't like this?

Thank you for good words! Hope we all will soon see this game available on Steam :) I have put lot of work into this project, and I'm really satisfied with the final effect.

Unfortunately for 99,99% game will be for Windows platform only. Sorry...

Yes, graphic that are presented here, are final. I know it's style is different from original Diggers, and I did it on purpose. I didn't want to create just a remake of a game. I wanted to recreate one of my favorite Amiga games "on my way". For example keeping graphic in cartoon style.

Re your question about machinery. Well, there will be some stuff to buy and use in the game, but not all items from Diggers will be implemented. Most of items, that were put there were unnecessary (in my opinion). For example bridge - maybe I used it twice for a whole game. Flood dam? Completely pointless. Map? Also (never used it). Explosives? To be honest, there wasn't anything to blow up with them (maybe opponent if you were lucky and he didn't teleport). The best of course were both tunnellers. Looking at them, while they made their way through dirt was really fun. But while using them over longer period of time, they were causing more problems than fun and benefits. For example, I replaced them with "advanced" and "expert mining tools". Miners who holds them in his backpack mines better (faster). Disadvantage is that, that they reduce miner carrying capabilities.
