Unearthed Almanac will run once weekly until I finish up some of the more boring aspects of game development (item lists, back-end coding, etc…). Enjoy!

Overview

The Rocky Slalom is a steep descent, leading Mitchell from the surface into the depths of the underworld. As Mitchell progresses down the series of ledges he will encounter strange creatures, and push farther into darkened caverns full of danger and wonder.
