30 steamworld dig 2 - destroying the device in the west temple

Dear Readers,

I started digging on the west side of the pyramid in the west temple. I found a lever that let me into the pyramid and I stepped on what I thought was a button to open the door to where I needed to go, but instead it made the floor give away and dropped me into the Temple Cistern. There was a warp point and two caves here.

The one on the left was called the Chamber of Arrows. In here I had to outrun some arrow shooters and search one in particular that was hiding an artifact. Then there was this nasty room that shot arrows in all directions. I died once here trying to figure out the pattern. I continued until I got out and found a switch to open one of the doors that led to where I wanted to go.

The one on the right was called the Chamber of Wheels. In here were mine carts and mine cart dispensers. It was puzzle oriented and I had to push the carts on to switches to open doors. At one point I had to stack two of them to gain access to an artifact. I found my way through and pressed the second switch to open the last door to where I needed to go. 

I finally gained access to the tip of the pyramid and inside the door was the Device of Devastation. I smashed up the machine just like the first doomsday device. I told Fen it felt oddly satisfying and they were pleased with that. There was a tremor just after I smashed it up. Fen didn't mind and just wanted to continue smashing these devices.

I went back to town and people seemed to be talking about the underground jungle Yarrow and how it's spreading due to the moon juice of the Shiners. It's where I need to go next...

I equipped the Vidar Boots, which makes me acid and lava resistant for a short while. It works alright, but for a very short while! Mostly good for if you accidentally fall into a single tile of the stuff!
