Found a common bug that's probably not worth mentioning. Sometimes when you fall from a height, you'll fall through a layer of floor. It doesn't really matter though since you can just dig yourself out though. XD As the game is right now, 5/5 ^-^

Really sorry the game has been falling behind. We fully intend to finish it, but there's only the two of us, so we were a bit drained after pushing out so much stuff in so little time. We're still thinking about the game constantly, though, so once we have some other things taken care of, we'll get some more work done on it.

Do not ask for robot upgrades. This game is in its development stages, and upgrades are a secondary priority. Improving and debugging gameplay is the priority atm.

I really like this game it is a huge upgrade to the old mother lode game but it needs upgrades like higher jumps or a recharging fuel for the jumps, faster drill bits, improved shields, stuff like that. Also there should maybe be some sort of collection system, like different alien objects, or maps to better caves, maybe a planet system for harder caves or different alien artifacts. The game is great how it is but to help get badges for kongregate.com and others you may need some improvements ( well additions ). again great game

Plz add a mini-map, cuz i can easily get lost in the caves without finding the orb or the exit when i found the orb. I just bump into a lot of gelfish

I'll wait for the full version of this game, with missions and upgrades available. But I'm afraid that this game may not win the competition because it doesn't present the uniqueness and the ability of the unity platform.

only slightly "inspired" by minecraft, you got those trademark dirt "blocks" with the grass on top, rare shiny specks in walls, that you dig out and get cool stuff, not to mention alien things that explode when you get close, "don't dig straight down or you will get punished by random gas (lava) pockets that will instantly kill you"

dont remove the gas pockets, it would be a wasted work time. instead, make something to identify them, like a sequel of sounds according the proximity (which reminds sonic water stages). or even something more complex to implement like a minesweeper-like gameplay.

to whoever was asking why this is 2.5D:
"The term "2.5D" is also applied to 3D games that use polygonal graphics to render the world and/or characters, but whose gameplay is restricted to a 2D plane."
as for the game itself, it's a fun demo, and my be great in the future. needs a lot more features to keep players busy. the updates planned so far sound awesome. I'll certainly be back when those are added!

Needs a nice upgrade system and money to buy garbage with. I know it is the same old thing, but the upgrades give you something to work towards. Like the old miner game. Very good. HOpe to see more soon

I've found the bug causing the camera to jitter around like it's had too much caffeine - we'll upload a patch tomorrow to fix it! Stick with us, we'll get the bugs under control!

@ragewinter, didn't have any problems with drilling myself. But I was waiting for some kind of story line.... else it would have been a 5/5. with robot upgrades.. 6/5 :D
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
it needs better screen-scrolling, but you would already be working on that... it also needs some like ores or something. not too much like motherload, but just things to get more points and stuff. upgrades (like everyone else says) would be nice too, but then yoiu would have to suck at the start.

What a cool looking game. Too bad it doesn't work! If you try to drill a rock, the game goes insane. Needs much more work to be playable!

I'm sure this is a good game, but the graphics seem to be messing up. The enemies, ship, and even the player character had no detail, just black shapes, and the grass outside seemed to have a gray box around it. I'm sure this is a fine game, but from what I can see it still has a long way and a lot of tweaking to go still.

Hello, congratulations for this awesome game! :) I like the looks of it. Hope to see the full gameplay. I had only one bug: I selected a small cave, found the orb, countdown has started and I died on the way back to the ship (low armor and touched an enemy :)), and then I spawned under the ship. Countdown still run, I couldn't do anything, the arrow still shown to return to the ship, and I actually died because of it. After I used my last life to run down to the orb, I touched it and I got a Game Over. :(
:thumbsup: I still like it. :)

A campaign setting with missions or something of that sort would be a lot of fun in this. That said looking at other peoples comments it looks like you probably have a lot on your plate already - this might be better as a later update. Awesome game so far!

I don't think you should focus on upgrades only. Try and see if you can make the game fun without them - then you can add them later.
What I think it needs right now is:
- More enemies (you're working on that I see)
- More abilities. Right now you can rool, dig, shoot and jump. It needs more, maybe different bots with different abilities.
- Something that you can use the orbs and gems for.
- Maybe something you can build. For example, you could choose to save a world, then when you have enough money or w/e you could buy stuff for the place.
- Customization. For both bots, and (if you make it) the stuff you can build. It's not needed that much, but it would be pretty cool.
