For BOTD simply get and sell 8 coal and give the proceeds to the dude in front of the hotel. If you want to play beyond that, stay near the surface until your battery and cooling are upgraded. Keep an eye on your battery and health—if you run out of either, they rob you of the ore you have on you as well as 250 bucks. This can be handy as you return with half of life or battery refilled, and they can't make your money go negative. This can be used to get some life or battery back for free when you die while both broke and not carrying any ore. Upgrading the battery refills the charge, so wait until your battery level is low before purchasing a battery upgrade. (The first battery upgrade actually costs LESS than simply paying to fully recharge the starting battery!) What ever you do, for the love of Zeus don't allow yourself to die with a bunch of ore on you or it'll get erased from the game, i.e. you can't recollect it. Lastly, touching ore once you’re full destroys the ore.

http://www.xgenstudios.com/game.php?keyword=motherload is a vastly superior free game to this game. Even the demo version on kong is vastly superior (I guess the difference is how far you can go, but even with demos limits its still further than this game!)

♫♭I have walked 500 miles, and I will walk 500 more, just to be the bot that walked 1,000 miles to sell my load of ore ♪♬

Most pain in the ass thing is you have to walk 6000 miles to get your energy recharged. (not to mention the character walks at .2 mph)

100% Allowance
Recharge 23% battery for 115$
...yeah, that's exactly what I though this whole allowance stuff would do.

Fastest way to get the medium badge: Buy last level cooling, and a drill that can break stone. After that, you can get anything, including the Core Ore, that appears on the map.

I am unable to buy the last chasis upgrade... money get deducted undefinitely but I am unable to get it and so i cannot finish the game. Very disappointed :\

I have to say this was a very fun game. Short and sweet, but fun and addictive. Wish you could do more quest for more people, and maybe customize a house for the robot. Give us something to keep mining for. Hope you make another. 5 stars from me.

So if you mess up on one of your first runs, you're dead. The resources you had are gone. Resources don't respawn, so they're gone forever. You don't necessarily have enough resources to continue at that point as the cost of doing the quests may be a bit too high. So yeah, don't ever go too deep, run out of energy, or run out of health early on. It's game over but won't let you as it just brings you back.

KaceeA You can close the store menu pressing C. I had to almost destroy my keyboard finding it. Cooling liquid should be nerfed; you should lose at least 90% of your life going to the COre and back...

I'd like to see a surge of games like this instead of all these idle games. Here's hoping 2017 breaks the curse of "the year of the idle games" and we get some decent other ones in here.

Upgrading the drill makes you WALK faster! Wish I'd known this before I wasted an hour just walking between the beach and the power station.

Red top, light hair, blue pants, and says "shut up and take my money"? That guy's name should have been Philip, not Jamie....

Great game but to easy to complete it. Need more challenging and there is a bug in the chasis store where, when you pay for something it continue to offer it to buy again. I pay 3 times for the same chasis.
Nevertheless 4 stars from me.

Lovely game.
However, I find kind of the same thing as Renx44. I can buy the Diamond Chasis indefinitely... (as long as I have the money)

I'm not sure what is wrong with me but I do love a mining game!! Could do with a mute button, more upgrades and achievements but apart from that a great little game!! :o)

Ever since I finished the story, I became hellbent on mining every single block on the map. Still going as of this comment!

Utopian Mining is a mining game.
Visuals: I like pixel-art but this is more paint than pixel-art.
Audio:
Story: Underdeveloped and that basically kills the game.
Controls: Don't feel responsive. Either delay or intentional but I don't know.
Gameplay: Boring. Boring. Boring. Upgrades are not interesting. Mining is not interesting and the 'end' is not interesting.
Rated B for boring.
