Glad to hear it! Btw, i know i said that it is relaxing.. I played some more, finding diamonds is definetely NOT relaxing! :D The game is nicely balanced since it is really chill at the beginning but gets more and more stressful, also, due to the speed and of course the rarity! Well done!
PS: Might be me being stupid, but i discovered the 'Abilities' only after all the upgrades were maxed out! :D Maybe a little indicator like an exclamation mark to highlight them?
Oh yea. U better come back to keep that drill working! Boss is taking his quotas reeaally serious, u don't wanna end up like the last drill operator!
(thank u ^^ <3)
Thank u for ur feedback! <3
Glad u had fun with the game^^
A lot there can use some more balancing in the future, but i'm happy that this state seems to have a good point to give some good runs :)
Also the abilities might get a bit of a rework. Thinking of multiple levels to get them to a bit escalation and i will test some other ideas with them.
Thank u very much for ur feedback :D
Yea i think the difficulty overall could get some more balancing. That was the best i came up with^^ But i think on that way it is possible for everyone to see everything and get a feeling of the possible "endgame". But yea, i will keep working on the game after the jam and then there will be much more balancing work to be done for me^^
Thank u very much for your feedback :)
Glad u liked it. For the theme. Yea i can understand ur point of view there. My aproach, when we got the theme to brainstorm and think about everything i could imagine that is spinning. And so i came up with drills. ..Cause drills are spinny things. And then i thought about how a drill could be used for a drill and i came up with this game^^
Ur idea with the color of the progress bar matching with the mineral from the contract sounds pretty good. Will put that on my list of things to test :D So thank u for that <3
Hey =)
What a great feedback <3
Thank u so much! I'm glad u had so much fun with my game. And yea. Worked as solo dev on it ^^ (days with long work periods and not so long sleep where the price ;D ) but i'm really proud on the result.
For the future i'm definetly planning to add more content to the game. More stuff to find deep down in the ground. An overworked upgrade System with more options and what even gets in my mind for it ^^
Thank u very much! :D
I wished i could add more in the time too^^
But im super glad u had such a good time with it <3
I'm definetly planning to keep working on it after the jam to make it a full game experience. So if u like to stay updated feel free to follow it =)
Wow. Thank u very much for this feedback! :D
Makes me super proud when i hear that people enjoyed it so much <3
Yea. For the meta game i was thinking about, how much of a challenge i want to make it for the player. Then i thought after day 6 the "tutorial" phase should be done and the player got a good viel on everything.
Glad u decided to keep playing after that :D
Fanny that the visuals on rock and minerals worked exactly different for u^^ i tried to give the veins more detail and "shinyness" so they look a bit more attraktive to collect:D
But i'm thinking about some kind of codex/ info panel or something like that, where the Player will get Information about the different minerals, how they look, what their value is, depth to find them and so on.
Nice cosy incremental! It reminded me of a mobile one I played a while back, but with much fewer ads, haha.
I hit a rather unfortunate bug where if you open the upgrade menu on the day of a new quota, you couldn't leave it (refreshing fixed it, good thing you added autosaving!). It's kind of a shame that lower depths feel the same as higher depths, I would've expected bigger ore patches and more than 1 new ore by 500m depth. But the art is great, the music is chill, and the game is fun - great job!
Metagame cog 78/126 
hey, Thank u very much for ur feedback! :)
Oh. That bug is new to me. So thank u for reporting it! <3
yea, some more content will be added in the future^^ That just was the best i could get in the game with the time. I'm still thinking about new stuff u could find in the depth and some more content :)
