Dig sites
  • The Orchard - a second dig site: 55 layers under an apple orchard, with its own grass, soil, mossy rock, gold and rare crystals

  • Roots - root blocks run down through several layers; break the top of a root and the one below it has half its health

  • Old Bones' map - Biscuit's treasure holds a torn corner of an old map, and each new site's treasure holds another piece

  • Site map - the map lies on Rudy's table; click it to pick where to dig next, see each site's layers and best time, and dig a cleared site again

  • Story - Uncle Rudy has new radio lines for the Orchard, and there is something at the bottom

Look
  • Rudy's lot - the first dig site is rebuilt: Rudy's house, the street, cars and trees around a cleared lot

  • Light - warm evening light baked in Blender, with shadows on the ground, on the pit walls and on the blocks

  • Shadows - blocks shade the blocks around them, and rigs and Biscuit cast soft shadows

  • Pit walls - the walls of the pit show the rock layers of the site you are digging

Interface
  • Climb up - a button in the sidebar takes the camera up for a wide view of the town while the rigs keep digging

  • Layer meter - the meter shows the site's rock layers as blocks, with the layer you are on

  • Stats page - the game menu has a Stats page: play time, digs, blocks, clicks, money, crits, chests and each site's best time

Achievements
  • Apple of My Eye - clear the Orchard

Ending
  • Biscuit - with Dig Buddy he digs with you and jumps into the treasure pit when the last block breaks; there is only ever one Biscuit

  • Treasure pit - the floor under the treasure no longer flickers

Sound
  • Rigs - rigs are quieter when you look at the town from above or at the map

Download
  • Size - the game files are smaller even with two dig sites: about 86 MB

Look
  • Backyard - the old backyard is replaced by Rudy's lot

  • Round number - the layer meter no longer shows the dig number (your digs are on the Stats page)
