This game has great potential due to the amount of mechanics and upgrades you can buy, but unfortunately right now there isn't too much need to explore the area because there seem to be no checkpoints you can reach and instead you can farm all the ores nearby. The gameplay starts feeling a little stale because there isn't much next to the core gameplay loop

Despite that I still think that the game is incredibly well put together and that this is an awesome framework to build on!! Keep up the awesome work ✨

I love the art used in this and the idea is really great! I think with some more time this could be something that is really really fun!

Great job! 7.8/10

This is a cool way to interpret the theme, and a pretty ambitious game to pull of in a week and visually the game looks really good. 


However I didn't enjoy this game that much because of lots of little problems and bugs that added up. The trades didn't work for me sometimes when I had the right resources, it's annoying to get stuck in ores when traversing the world on the bike, mining ore doesn't feel fun to me, the music doesn't loop. I got soft locked out of interacting with shops and the bike after one of my deaths (and the dust meter stopped filling when this happened too).


While I didn't enjoy the game as is, I'm sure others will, and it's really impressive how much you have done in a week while working solo and I think if you had more time to work on it, the game could become something really cool.

cool mining game

the game is repetitive(DUH just like every survival game)

amount of content compair to the map size and the music is lacking(tbh for a 1 week jam this is a lot of content, just wish their were more)

combat is MID and hav me question my sanity somtimes but it's functional 

game hav som bugs obviously          

require a lot more polish ofc, but otherwise cool game, addicting gameplay , great visual
