I'm surprised by how much content you put in this game: there is both a terraria like section and then a section where you play as the ship and they both are fun!

Fun gameplay loop, the change from mining to flying the rocket definitely helps to break up monotony. Some aspects definitely need a little more polish, the mining system in particular feels a little clunky, I think it's mostly because the projectiles feel a little slow. The replayability is also great, each landing you can get a little more than enough to fully fuel up, so you can spend the rest getting upgrades.

Very fun with a great sense of progression. Good job!

Wow, I really had fun playing! I like the spaceship idea and the thing that the more you advance everything gets faster. After a bit of progression Herbert came towards me so fast that I almost got scared ahaha

Realising too late I'm out of fuel, with Herbert getting closer and closer, was a traumatizing experience. 10/10

Interesting idea to turn terraria style mechanics into a sort of strategy game. Was very fun to play.

Oh man! This reminded me so much of the game i used to play on the miniclip called motherload. Good times. A very solid game by the way. I played it, my wife played it. Consider it a success! Well done!

Dig dug, meets Terraria, meets space invaders. I fell through the map to the left and bottom. Cool interface and sounds, pew pew pew.

At least you escaped HIM!
