Day 2: The flattening commences.

OKAY. SO. It turns out you don't always need coal to make torches. You can actually make charcoal which has the same use by smelting wood blocks. Kinda cool. Never knew.

I also upgraded my house overnight. Looks nice, I like it.

Anyway, today was my first day of solid flattening. I started with the small hill next to my base, it seemed a shame for it to continue blocking my new windows.

After using around 10 stone shovels and reaching sea level with the layers upon layers of dug dirt, I found underneath was a small pool. Kinda cool but I may fill it in depending on my mood when I've dug the rest of the hill.

I'm going to have to start working into the night if this is going to go anywhere.
I'm also going to need more shovels.

The dug up hill, plus my new house.

Nice pool, ya?
