    Wait...Is that a teleporter in the dungeon?
    I wonder what that's for...

    Maybe it would help to scatter some indicator objects/blocks/structures around the microdungeons to make it more visible.

    The teleporter may be some form of entryway. Because, you know, who needs doors anymore?

    Frankly, I'm jealous of this Avian for being able to live in such safe conditions. (Sharkdogs...)
    Loving the design.

    That looks pretty cool! Can't wait to see the other micro dungeons once the major update hits. *too chicken for the nightlies*

    Would the teleporter have anything to do with the gate from yesterday, or maybe a "pick where you land instead of walking all the way back around the entire planet" system?

    "Could you get the door? That pounding is getting annoying."
    "We don't have a door."

    Admit it, each one of those little houses we've been smashing for 6 pixels is actually a microdungeon!

    The teleporter could be a link to an outpost or dungeon? still great work!

    The shape of the terrain in those open, cavernous areas is fairly consistent. I guess you could do a bunch of microdungeons that spawn similarly to the surface ones. Only checking for the ground on the bottom and the air on top. Maybe one upside down on the ceiling...

    IF 3 chunks = stone (of same type)
    ADD dungeon(s) into it

    ^^

    anyhow, nice progress mates

    Maybe have a vent/pipe system from rooms like this that go out to any nearby cavern...rooms need to breathe, like the people inside :)

    Hmm, those teleporters look like quite a good idea. Maybe they could the best way to get back to the surface after you've gotten all your ore. And plus, if you could actually take one of them with you, would that mean you could place them at your home and warp directly to it from the ship? That'd be quite cool; I am seriously tired of always having to build my home around the spawn point of the planet....

    a idea when you dig through the wall to a mini dungeon and then the npc will get panic when hi/she sees you
    because wouldnt you panic if you saw someone just broke through your wall at home whit a pickaxe :D

    I would personally offer them tea in a nice white, ceramic mug with a red heart on it, which may or may not have the ability to poison its holder.

    On a slightly different topic, why would an underground home require window lattice?
