I think the update may have broken the game.
I wanted to start a new one to see how it felt from the beginning, but I can't get anything but my first worm. First try I dug to 500 ft and the next staff didn't unlock that was supposed to unlock at 125ft. I thought it might have been because I used the worms to get there. So I restarted, and dug to 200 ft manually. Still nothing. Then I thought it might have been because I turned the tutorial off, so I tried one more time with the tutorial enabled. I'm currently approaching 300ft and it still hasn't unlocked.
I don't know if I've done something wrong, but if I can't get the $ income started, I can't really play.
I should also mention I'm playing in browser. I haven't tried downloading it yet.
Edit: Okay, so at some point in the past couple minutes, I started making money for some reason, and things are now unlocking properly. I wasn't really paying attention to when it happened, but the Fundraiser is now available.
