just slow traveling across a glacier when  THIS:

apparently a chunk of the ice shot out above ocean/ice level and split, good thing I'm a paratroopa...
anyone want a save before i go in and possibly kill myself?
this game has been modded with megamix, though probably just completely unrelated.

UPDATE:
oh god toady why haven't you told us.


i swear it doesn't say anything like this in the devlog....
i mean seriously, GLACIAL CAVERNS...

UPDATE:a few more  caverns and a tiny sliver of water that opens up to the water that is UNDER THE OCEAN!!!

WOAH. cries in the presence of such an awesome game design...

UPDATE:gave up on the first crevice as fire slows the game too much. so i ventured out and found another ice protrusion, but with no crevice, and then ANOTHER protrusion on it, with a crevice of it's own so I'm gonna check it out.

not the fact that instead of snow, there is ice, EVERYWHERE

UPDATE:i decide to walk on top of this ice protrusion on the ice protrusion on this sea of ice and i find a random pit...

as you can see it is 2 stories down, with a floor blocking all but on square between the levels, how strange...
i go ahead to the bottom, ignoring the random caves that probably lead to no where, when i find the bottom of this fissure. the weird thing is...:

the water is shallow enough to fly through!
now i will rick possibly getting frozen solid to venture UNDER a glacier!

UPDATE: underwater journey failed as the game crashed, so i continued to look somewhere else
and as I traveled, another ice thing shot out of the ground but i noticed something...

is that an ice fortress i see?
amazing how this game made all this randomly..
but other than this epic thing... not much else

UPDATE:for those who want the save here it is:

the random ice shooting up is becoming so frequent that the game either lags to 1 frame every 2 minutes, or the random ice just shoots up and kills me so i can no longer go about this. enjoy your small ice thingy as you can in adv mode as you can't embark on the ocean in dwarf mode.

Thats amazing.

[Evergod41]

Oh, thats what those were... yeah, whenever i travel across oceanic glaciers, (you cannot fast travel across them) they pop up every screen shift, gets really annoying to walk around and contenue...

I now wonder when cooled magma tubes will begin to appear.

[iceball3]

the main thing toafy has to do about this with gameplay is make them a little wider, add some edges to ease down through, but not necicarily exit. and then, ICE caverns.

How do I find iceburgs?!?this is awesome!

[Robocorn]

These have been around for a while, I fell down one in 40d for 50 z levels once. There was nothing under them back then but water and the ocean floor. Anything down their now? or just water?

[iceball3]

the water apearantly leads to the ocean floor, which i could easily traverse by using an obsidian filled with fireballs, leaving maybe a few burns.

[iceball3]

UPDATE:read the first post.

[iceball3]

update, now with PROGRESSS...

[iceball3]

UPDATE AGAIN...
EDIT: anyone want the save?

[Toast024]

That ice fortress thing is cool.

[Comrade_Fregge]

 I would like a save. How did you get down there without getting squeezed out of your clothes from the 30 story fall?

[iceball3]

i flew down, playing as a dark paratroopa in the megamix mod. just hold on, i'll have the save up tonight

[iceball3]

save is up, and i can't post anymore about this ice fort as the game won't let me escape the area without lagging like mollases
