Solid! It's a bit sad that I was able to unlock everything after the first level before I even got all the drills. :( But this could be quite something! If it had a bit slower progression and more paths, I would probably have a hard time stop playing it! :D

Good work, glad you submitted. :) 

Submitted

yooo, so satisfasing when i'm in the mode with 4 hands, cool game, can u test mine?

Developer

thanks! yea, i can test your game.

Submitted

decent tech demo, even if i am grumpy about the ai code. good mindustry vibes for the visuals though.

Developer

its understandable to not like the AI code, and i don't like it that much either, but it saves me so much time and effort, still learning how to use it correctly so it only does stuff i tell it to.

Submitted

This game is quite unique and I don't know why but I getting flashbacks of my childhood game "mindustry". It has pretty similiar visual. It's pretty hard at first to play so I'd recomend that you add tutorial in this game.

Developer

its not really a game, so i don't think it needs a tutorial right now, Mindustry was inspiration, thanks for playing!

Submitted

It sounds like this isn't in a state you're completely satisfied with, and that can be tough, but as someone who also struggled with being content and happy with the state their game was in, I'm glad you still got something submitted! 

From what I can tell, the things you accomplished here aren't easy (especially in a week), and you should be proud!

Easily the most serious game I've seen! ; )

Developer

thank you!

Submitted

I love the concept, this sounds actually quite interesting... Procedural generation always amazes me. 

I'm glad that you still submitted this, the dev tools, audio and visuals all feel good... If only there was more to do. This has definite potential. 

Developer

thanks!

Submitted

This is really cool!! the audio gets a little messy when mining a lot at once, and it probably needs a bit of balancing so he first time you find the upgrade menu (after like, 3 minutes of gameplay) you dont have enough to afford EVERY upgrade.. but it is WILD that you pulled this off in a week!! great job!!

Developer

thanks! didn't have time for balancing at all and i need to figure out the audio too somehow.

Submitted

Overall this concept has a LOT of potential if you keep working on it and go in the right direction. Gameplay is fun. Audio could use some variation in the drill sound so it doesn't get insane when you add the drills. Also maybe making the initial time limit shorter so you have to upgrade the time limit because I unlocked all the drills after my first timer and was suddenly OP. Super fun though and great work for a game jam game.

thanks, it really means a lot to me! i just didn't have time to work on the actual game content at all, need to join longer game jams i guess

Submitted

I think what you've got is really fun and playable. Definitely a wild thing to whip up in seven days! I'd say if you run with this concept after the game jam you'll have a pretty successful game on your hands

i wish. it's not like i just started from nothing. i've been working on this framework for many months. theres a lot of stuff i need to change before i can efficiently add content into this. getting there slowly!

Submitted

It's definitely at a decent spot so far! I'd say you have good content going for the beginning before implementing more things. It mostly just needs a touch of refining for the gameplay loop but with what you've got so far I don't doubt that you'll figure it out in no time.

Developer(+1)

thanks. i needed this kind of support! :D

Submitted

This may not be a finished game, but from what is available, I want more. Sounds very satisfying, looks very satisfying, and I like the idea of a mining with those huge arms.

Developer

thanks, it means a lot!

Submitted

I'm not sure if it's just me, but the gameplay is just a black screen.

i fixed the chrome build, it should work now
