This game is pure randomness, even if you get everything fully upgraded you have little or no chance of achieving the goals and have to play the game from the start over and over... as it sits this is a 1 star game because after a few runs through the game gets boring.
If it was possible to save my game and play from a certain point and do multiple runs from that point I may feel differently, but as it currently sits this is just a big grinder with no pay off.

Brutal UI decision to HIDE the menu at the end of your run. During my run I don't have time to go to the menu. It's also buggy- I have to click in the game AFTER my run starts to be able to control the drill on Chrome. Generally, not any different than any other game like this and without special graphics or enhancements. 2/5

I keep getting fuel out right after I clicked the 'click to continue' button, this game not work for me. Cant even get the easy badge

MEDIUM BADGE TIP: If you don't get 25 large diamonds in your first playthrough, to avoid having to replay it and get all the upgrades over again, just refresh before the end cutscene. It'll let you play starting from the previous day

I see you get the trophy cash at the end... I needed it sooner, I guess the medium and hard badges are really the impossible badges as I couldn't make a strong enough driller and fuel until the last few weeks/tries and there were f all large diamonds

only the last 3 trophies of either row are worth anything. If you are aiming for the hard trophy, you need to mine around 250,000 plus a few trophies as there are taxes that get deducted at the end. so you need 350,000 total or more.

Im not even gonna try for the elemental badge its so dumb and rng based and you only get lik 7 tries max per run you have to play it a bunch just to get to that point

My fully upgraded drill always got crushed at 2500ft by pressure, so how are you supposed to get the trophy for 2600ft?

i found that mech mole makes getting better upgrades faster and you need to dig straight down while upgrading your armor, tanks, and drill using the mechmole to break rocks. getting to the gems, diamonds earlier helps a bunch. was on day 20 when i maxed out and started working on the trophies

I don't like how you can only play 25 times to try to get the medium badge and then you have to start all over and it takes about 20 weeks to get good enough gear to have a chance to collect 25 large diamonds, so you have to slowly grind for money again.

I feel like the scaling on the upgrades is a little lacking. I was nearly fully upgraded on my drill before I really started hitting the big diamonds. So now I have several weeks left where I'm making 10's of thousands of dollars a dar but not able to do anything else with my money and struggling to get 25 diamonds a day...

That moment when you get lucky enough to get all trophies in the game, get all the upgrades before 6 weeks left, and get stuck with 7000$ away from getting the hard badge. ARE YOU-

In case anyone gets too deep before reaching the medium badge... at about 1800 feet, just turn left or right (as in, do a hard 90% degree, and don't go any lower). Pressure won't increase, and with max fuel and mole it should be doable.

The pressure underground would only be different by the weight of the air, if its a narrow hole there really wouldn't be much of a change
