this is a great game, i love this gam

hi! i´ve played your game a few times  and  today i wanted to make a day of   "betatester gaming" so ive been messing up a little with the mechanics and i managed to  bug the jetpack  by upgrading it a lot(tried a few times and it always happens) So when i jumped and started flying the player will never falls until you stop pressing the fly button. When you´ve been flying a few minutes the music starts to lag a bit but the real problem is that if u stopped and fall,the camera wont be able to follow  the player and the game will break  . Maybe lowering the fall acceleration would make the problem dissapear but  i let that up to you. I loved this game and it have helped me a lot to understand  a few mechanics that i wanted to use in my own projects  so thanks and i hope you the better ( sorry for my english D:) 

cute concept, but there are few things that make the game not fun:

1. lack of direction. youre just someone somewhere and you have to mine something, to buy things that do something. i had to guess, what was i buying and what does it do.

2. boring gameplay. whole game is just mine -> go home -> buy something -> mine.

3. lack of a way for fuel to restore automatically. getting stuck underground happens way to often.

Very fun and cute concept. Like the sound design and graphic design, outside of the hard-to-grok symbols and mathematical equations in lieu of a proper tutorial level.

WHy do we mine things with sludge guns in the future??

Because it is fun :)

yeah, i sometime just hold down the shoot button on the tier three sludge gun and sometimes i get trapped in the middle of the explosion, once i had one hp and i just paused the game and i just opened a new tab to play on that, im still paused on the other tab

Just stumbled across this game and pleasantly surprised. Thanks for sharing!

This is a pretty fun game, I just wish it had a bit more content because it felt too easy and short. Still very good nonetheless! 

How many of those platforms are their? as I cannot find where to sell the stuff that is found deep.

Four, if I remember correctly, I assume you have found them all.
There are no selling stations for all the deeper resources.

Thanks for the info.

This game is tiny and fun, I got stuck in some falling rocks and had to blow myself out a couple of times, but other than thank it was fun

I also found a bug where if you jump and start using your jetpack at the same time, you go flying (This should be kept as a feature tho)

I thought that was intended

im pretty sure it is

well if its intended, its a fun feature

if the demo is representative of the game (at least near its current state, which it should be):

- Game lacks direction. You just suddenly drop in. What are you doing? Why are you here? What do these machines do, for what purpose?

- Things should be spread out and introduced more gradually to give the player plenty of time to understand it.

- Gameplay is cool, but at least at the start, i'm wondering what there is going to be to make it a bit more interesting. I think the pacing is a bit off.

kind of ehhh

god

go

This is an awesome looking game!

Accidently turned on autoplay on was like ahhhhhh ai is taking over lmao i love this game

also why does the ai wanna destroy everything lmaoooo

This feels like one of my games but if it was fully polished and was actually fun. Well done! Thanks for making the demo free because I'm definitely considering buying it on steam!

Thank you!

i abalutly love this demo i want more but i dont have enougph money for the newest version

The game won't disappear anywhere; instead, I will gradually make it better and put it on sale in the future. So, wishlist it and keep an eye on the news. 

Wow! This game is really cool! I wanted to start exploring around itch.io and play some games and this happened to be my first. This is very inspiring because I use godot as well, so its awesome to see what other people can do

Hi!
I'm working on a very similar project.
Have you seen the game SPACE MOONSHINER?
It's also in early access on Steam.

Nice GD

oh never mind, its a AWESOME GAME.

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY DID THEY TAKE IT AWAY

Is the progress saved? Cuz I played it once, left and then it restarted.

Not in the Itch.io browser version.
There is a much-improved version with progression saving available in Steam.

Hello, author of the game! Do you also develop the Android version? If yes, will it have any updates?  Google translator used in the text.

No, the Android port that might come up in internet searches is not made by us and has no affiliation with us.
We might make an official mobile version in the future, but it can only become feasible if the official game on Steam gets more attention.

sorry i want to say that i never find more base

i never find monsters or more post but i have too much fun finding more and i keep finding more and more i idc if i take months this game is the best the best game ever it has the best concept the best gameplay and its adictiv

i wanna say that this game is amazing and i keep and keep mining for more secrets but i never find more i only fin a bit more of materials and it was useless but i have too much fun its so amazing

(1 edit)

God Damn . . .  😐😐

was so addictive.🔥

that could be better, if  game has some enemy or something like Bat

Thank you!
I'm continuing with the commercial version in Early Access, which has enemies too.

Awesome game, but a bit too short and lacks polish / a real goal. Worth checking out.

How do you recharge your fuel???

You go to the fuel station and hold down E to convert money into fuel.

Thx for the help, i can now find this game addicting

You mine the slightly green rock-ish stuff and the you trade it for something else and then trade for fuel.

can you add save file

Unfortunately, not for the Itch.IO demo (it has become quite old). There is a save system in the Steam game.

thanks for the answer

i crashed the game by just flying XD

(+1)(-1)

short but nice

can you add cache saving?

Also, this game has the coolest rubble system I've ever seen.

Not to the web demo currently, it is a bit old. However, the newer demo in Steam has a progression-saving system.

Ok. :/
Nice game!

It's just wonderful ! The most beautiful games I have ever seen!

What is the demo music?
