Heya. I just want you to know that if you have a computer that doesn't perform well the miners become useless as they zip over where they're trying to go and just go back and forth constantly.

Fun enough regardless, even if I had to use my mouse alone :/

Agreed. The miners are moving without digging anything on the browser except when doing down.

I'm on browser and they work fine. They aren't "icons" though. They're little animated miner guys. I wouldn't say they are "icons".

I deleted the word 'icons'. Is it okay to say 'sprites' then? Anyway, I was referring to the animated images, no derogatory meaning or insult is intended.

Purple play symbol hovers in the middle of the screen. Hides half of the field.

Amazing use of music and subtle visual distortions!

Just as a note for future players, or those who are still playing: if you put the mining gear directly on the miner, instead of dropping it, it's instantly equipped and the others can't steal it. Hope it helps!

Unfortunately, that’s hard to do when they’re running around like demented squirrels. It would be nice if you could hit pause when trying to give them stuff.

Why have a click radius upgrade if it's always maxed??

Seems like no one reported this exploit, but I think in the current state it's a necessity:

1) Start crafting basic sandal
2) Click on desired items before craft finishes
3) Profit

Basically reduces the cost of all items to 3 stones.
Reduces the frustration of miners hoarding good items.

Visually nice IDLE-ish game, love the aesthetic.

Okay, I found a very funny bug, when my computer is on low battery mode, the miners don't jump anymore.

As soon as I plugged the power cord back in, they went to work !

yeah this one is kinda broken, but very fun

interesting.

some feedback: for whatever reason miners only mine one block. miners that already have a nice tool tend to greedily snatch a new tool away so that others can't get it. typo at 2nd helmet

This is delightful!

miners aint mining chat....

miners worked fine for a while but after level maybe 14? they started only mining one block per level. don't really know what happened

overall fun tho

When you drop freshly crafted items , it could be easier if the miner that already had this items don't rush to i

Yeah, that wastes the equipment. :(

Successfully done simplified addictive mining game. It's well developed. However, it's pointless and not very satisfactory because mining to the end of the earth without nothing to explore feels empty to me. Showcases your dev skills well though!

Reminds me of mobile games. You developed the system well. You could improve this concept and make an addictive idler mobile game if you make the progression slower and the give miners characteristics i guess... 

Reply to me if you wish to brainstorm ideas :P

good game

had a great time playing it

(+2)

I finished, but felt like I had to ascend, because they just looked so happy to be mining!

(+5)

does anyone know how to get the secret? agree with the miners take things they already have is stupid

(+3)

Absolutely loved this! So addicting

(+6)

Miners probably shouldn't be picking up upgrades items that they already have...

Or at least prioritize grabbing ones they don't have over digging

(+5)(-7)

miners feel kinda useless... why do they only mine one block a floor???

Minimum wage is required in this society you know
