The R’n’D and HR departments speed up the earnings process with all-new contracts

SEATTLE — Oct. 29, 2025 — Drill Core, the roguelite mining strategy simulator from developer Hungry Couch and publisher tinyBuild, maximizes earnings in record-breaking time with the latest “Contracts Expanded” update, available on PC via Steam today.

Listen up, chumps! The trusted advisors at Drill Core Inc. have discovered the perfect formula to drive up success in a fraction of a second. Thanks to the brilliant minds of the prestigious R’n’D and HR departments, a fresh way to work more swiftly (but still laboriously) and earn a quick dime has arrived at the company!.

A round of applause to the profit-earning, hardworking Platform Managers who show up every day to make the galaxy a better place. The Drill Core Inc. team proudly presents the new Accelerated Gameplay Mode, allowing miners to complete Contracts in record time to optimize profit productivity. The new contracts contain a bevy of changes, including reduced costs, shorter days, and reduced cooldowns.

Appreciation for miners doesn’t stop there, with three brand new contract types to spice things up. Competitive Contracts challenge Platform Managers to see who can complete the contract first. The Resource Shipment Contracts mandate collecting the necessary (annoying) employee feedback and ship it to Headquarters. With Field Trials Contracts, miners are challenged to construct contractual obligations only, without demolishing any buildings once constructed. 

That’s not all: Drill Core Inc. brings a host of welcome additions to enhance the mining experience. Platform skins arrive for the most dedicated expeditioners to liven up the bombing fun, along with Gamepad Controls for greater accessibility. Did we forget to mention the new Elite Aliens? That’s right – new forms of aliens have begun to appear on all planets, bringing an added layer of danger fun to the excavations!

“We’re delighted to deliver the next content-rich update to our Drill Core die-hards that ups the ante in both challenges and fun,” said Konstantin Burov, Head of Hungry Couch Games. “This latest update introduces new contract types, quality of life updates, and a ton of requested additions like collectibles and the sneaky Elite Aliens! ”

Drill Core is available now for Windows PC via Steam for USD $19.99, with its biggest discount ever at 30% off beginning today. The game offers English, French, Ukrainian, Serbian, German, Spanish (Spain), Russian, Brazilian Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, and Simplified Chinese language support.

Player vote launched to change the future of RuneScape forever

Wednesday, October 29th, 2025, Cambridge, UK. Jagex is inviting players to cast their vote on the future direction of RuneScape, with a major community vote launched today that will decide whether Treasure Hunter microtransactions are to be removed from the classic MMO.

RuneScape players are invited to cast their vote now on the RuneScape website. If the vote surpasses 100,000 votes, Jagex will remove Treasure Hunter — the major microtransaction layer for RuneScape — and over 220 associated gameplay-benefitting items from sale in RuneScape, including XP Lamps, Proteans, Portables, Dummies and more. 

Today’s vote marks a milestone moment in Jagex’s pledge to make major, long-term changes that strengthen the integrity and value of the RuneScape experience. This is part of a wider shift across the business to focus on deeper, more meaningful gameplay and to build greater trust between Jagex, and the RuneScape community. Jagex encourages all RuneScape players to vote, as any votes in excess of 100,000 will underscore the importance of these changes to the community and signal the shared commitment to shaping a more transparent and player-driven future for RuneScape.”

“This vote is one of the most important moments in RuneScape’s history. Starting right now, players will cast the deciding vote on the future direction of the game,” said Jon Bellamy, CEO of Jagex. “Since Squeal of Fortune was introduced in 2012, and subsequently Treasure Hunter in 2014, our approach to monetisation has, over time, eroded some of the integrity at the heart of RuneScape.”

“The most concerning elements of our MTX systems have been those that allowed players to bypass core gameplay, skipping over the depth, challenge, and sense of discovery that make RuneScape truly special,” Bellamy continued. “While these systems have helped fund the game, they’ve done so at a cost to something far greater:  the integrity of our worlds. This vote is about correcting that, and taking a step toward designing experiences that are fair, rewarding, and built to last.”

The community vote will remain live for 14 days. For more details and to cast your vote, head over to the RuneScape website.

This enhanced version of the cult-classic shoot-’em-up/RPG, which was originally released for Game Boy Advance in 2005, is on its way to modern platforms via Limited Run Games’ Carbon Engine with porting handled by Mighty Rabbit Studios. Showcasing the game’s unique mix of top-down exploration and side-scrolling space-shooter battles, as well as the various tools and 20,000+ weapon combinations players can acquire during their intergalactic infiltration of the Krill Empire, the trailer provided a first look at one of several player-selectable HD border artworks, as well as an early preview of the game’s new title song.
