Why is it an upgrade to reduce vibration from drill? It makes it impossible to get abberant matter without dynamite and makes it much harder to mine lava blocks by clearing around them first. I know the strange gloop is easier to get but it's not too hard at the start as long as you spot it quickly so in the end its just bad to reduce drill vibration

The inability to go up more than two blocks at a time even double jumping, ruins this for me. Also, I suspect it is just my computer/system, but it's very hard to make the game register pushing more than one button at once (such as drill/sideways). If I thought this was a problem other people are having I'd be marking this as a one. It SOUNDS like it should be an awesome game from other people's comments, but it's sadly unplayable for me.

Games do not get much better than this! I plan on playing this for a LONG time to come. Over and over again. Wish there were more like this! I agree with Yllib... dig dug habits had me twitching a bit! lol. You know, this is what I wish dig dug actually was!
Simply the best game I have found yet.

Interesting game. I like the way it brought together the mining and platforming genres while adding something new to both fronts.

katstone: bigegr iron recipes unlock after you have enough smaller iron, special recipes unlock as you find artifacts

Awesome game, I remember back in 2012 when I got the three badges, it was a great night of gaming haha, I remember like if it was yesterday

Okay, all the wikis say that to make a bunch of screws, I just need 2 iron nuggets. Why can't I make screws??? I have tons of iron nuggets and more. It's holding me up from getting some desperately needed upgrades to my bots...

How do I get bigger iron??? I've been to so many volcano planets, picked up so much tiny iron... but I can't seem to find or make anything bigger!

I think I accidentally built two research modules, this seemed to waste resources. Having trouble getting the badge of the day for this.

You always need at least one more atomic boggler than you think you do. That and screws. Holy moly do you need a lot of screws. You could make a bridge connecting every planet you visit made entirely out of screws.

What do you do when you're still missing some early artifacts but all you're getting from capsules are bars and plates?

now why wont the video right after the tutorial load? I feel like It had something to do with the story and I'm missing out.

Why is there no save function for this game so that people don't lose their progress? According to the badges I earned, I completed SIX modules. Now they're gone and I have to start over? This is neither fair, nor right! Devs, please add a save function!

At first, I played this a lot similarly to how I played Motherload, clearing an entire straight line from where I was to the surface and conserving just about everything. It's not that efficient. Honestly though, resources, except for iron, aren't a problem and it's easier to just buy 10 of each consumable. At first, use the artifacts to go back up and throughout the game remember to farm iron for endgame. Changing planets also automatically refuels you while setting you back to full health!

At least with Cooling 4, you can go to a 250 Level Glacier, start searching for the planet's 2 lost artifacts at level 160, 20 levels at a time.

@werdbooty you can buy more teleporters in you ship, go to modules, craft them in the bottom left called emergency transponder

A piece of advice: if you are looking for some raw material, simply select a celestial body that has this resource. You won't find lava on glacial worlds and titanium is only found rather deep so good luck trying to find any on small asteroids. You can only find one type of gas on any planetoids, the type of gas is connected to the planetoid size. Check the resource description to see what is found where and how deep.
Tip: deploy your teleporter to a place that you can come back to (preferably deep), you can use it as long as you are on that planetoid, unless you deploy another. They can't be reclaimed or moved once deployed.
Tip: Never fool around with dynamite unless you are empty. You will eventually blow yourself up but then you won't lose the resources you just mined.

@Firechanter: On most temperate and volcanic planets, if you down a bit, you see small puffs of green gas coming out of the rocks. Just mine the rocks, and sometimes you get vespene gas of various sizes. I think you get amaranthine gas instead on glacial planets.
@hempick: just look on the minimap at the bottom left corner of the screen. Artifacts look like small red blobs. On the main map, they look like cannisters with black and yellow stripes. Once you grab one, you learn a new recipe, and can levitate up to the surface. It usually takes me less than 5 minutes to find one on each new planet.

game is great and all but has a cpuple of problems, first, while the music is great...it only has 2 tracks and... a long period of silence between each. second, crafting, that thin is unintuitive, , why not let one get back to the previous crafting, because there are some that are made of several components made of several each, so one has to go every single time trhough the whole process just to craft a single multicomponent piece, (go to tab, then to part you wanna craft then to the compoennt then to its components then its own components and so on every single time) is frustrating

Has it really been almost four years since I completed this? Wow. º_º Either way, it's always such a treat to see a game I loved to bits get promoted as BotD. ^w^ Even if time seems to indeed have not been all too kind on the story videos' functionality...

I've searched this planet high and low, as deep as I dare go (one Cooling upgrade), but I can't find a single fart of Vespene gas.

Glean, in my opinion, is a rather awesome game,
but too bad the FPS *could* be a little bit more clean! (Rhyme intended)

What do I do if I can't get the video to load, but when I hit EXIT from that screen it just brings me back to the beginning?
