Hmm after looking into it more, I agree that the crafting cost for the Mycelial Boots was a bit steep on the wool side. I have reduced it from 15 to 12. This change will go live with the next hotfix for Serenitrove, and the wool repair cost will be slightly lower as well (due to the crafting cost decrease).

As for the Void layer, I added the maze-like mechanic because Void cells have 0 hardness. Without some kind of obstacle, it would be too easy to just dig straight down. The debuff zones (voidzone, black hole, still figuring out a proper name for those lol) are there to make navigation more interesting and a bit more challenging.

Thanks for the feedback, and I am glad you're having fun with the game!

Thanks for all the quick bug fixes!

Further update: I've collected every Sigil except Nix. It was easy to reach water with most turtles especially with the new Sigils. But with all equipment unlocked, dojo stamina and power maxxed out, and +10% resource spawn, I couldn't get very far with Nix. Maybe more quartz in the early biomes could help? I noticed that the Underbark layer has increased cost for digging sideways, so it makes emerald collection more RNG based (since most time it's not worth it to lose stacks to dig sideways). And I ended up avoiding ironwood in Underbark because they spawn easily above ground. 

The Sigils are a lot of fun and I love mix and matching them! The flavour text for unlocking them is super cute, each of them feel like the triumphant end of an adventure. My favourite additions are the Terracotta Jug and Evergrowth Hammer, fascinating interactions with stamina and restore cells. In Farfields midgame when I didn't have enough to repair tools, I would grind Meadows with Evergrowth Hammer to restore tool durability. I like how these new mechanics encourage you to switch equipment multiple times mid dig. Same with the consumables since you can't bring everything. I like how the toxin layer has sufficient ore to make up for Griddle's lack of restore cells (accidentally got the Toxin Relationship achievement with him!). I think the Void layer works super well, has a tense final boss vibe especially with the turtle becoming smaller. Griddle + Omnishard is a lot of fun to navigate in the Void layer. 

Overall, AWESOME major update, I got obsessed with clearing it and unlocking new things! It's so addicting and there are many combos/strategies to explore! The visuals are colourful and cute, and it's impressive how much you can convey with a few pixels. I really appreciate the game being free and thank you for all the hard work! :)

PS: It would be cool to be able to sell gems + new resources for quartz!

Thanks for the detailed feedback!

I have added Quartz spawns to Underbark and Sporegrove, which should help with building Nix's shield stacks. This also addresses 2 other issues, since those layers could feel a bit empty with only two resource types previously, and there was generally not enough Quartz in Farfields.

For Bits and Bobs, the sell tab now accepts bars instead of ores, with slightly increased prices to account for furnace fuel costs. Gemstones have also been added to the sell tab. For now, Farfields resources will not be included there, as I want to avoid situations where players accidentally sell materials they might need for future blueprints. Thanks again for enjoying Serenitrove!
