Missing DLL exception - unplayable no rating :(

This was a nice little sandboxer. I liked the graphics and the animations of the tank. I drilled around for a while, but couldn't find any gold, though... :(

Very good. Had fun digging. Although I would have liked to digg through to the top. :)

Digging to the top did not work in general. And the combination of direction+space to start digging felt strange. Would have liked to start the drill always when pressing space, even when not moving.

I like these kind of games. You always wonder what's burried there behind the next block of earth.

Sorry, I also couldn't get the DLL thing D:!

It looks really cool from the screenshots, but I'm missing MSVCP120.dll :(

Oh man you nailed that compulsion loop. I could see myself spending hours and hours watching that little robot grind away at the earth!

I was confused at first because I didn't buy the flight upgrade before digging downward and then I got stuck and had to restart.

Some minor bugs fixed.

Space bar is not doing anything, cant dig

Very interesting game! Seens very unfinished, however.

I enjoyed every second of playing this.

Looks great, and a nice production.

This was good, I liked the minecraft elements while being a totally different game :) Nice pixels. I found some mineral (silver or iron I guess) but ran out of fuel trying to get back up - doh!

Overall, excellent little game! I spend like 20 minutes upgrading and playing around, well done. The music loops nicely as well!

Thats was incredibly fun, the graphics and audio were great as well. Had a blast playing it!

I like this kind of digging game! But there's something missing here, I don't know, maybe more diversity...? Would had love to find more materials, maybe treasure, and sometimes I found caves, but there's just nothing special in it :/
And more cool bad ass stuff in the store perhaps? Like something that just explode the blocks, bombs, lasers, you name it.
And I couldn't find a way to restart. Behind stuck down there is a little harsh don't you think. Maybe restart from the shop while losing our cargo would be better?
Still, good music, nice graphics, that's a good work you've done there!

I got lost in my gallery and I don't find gold ! Nice graphics and it is a interesting game.

delca 2014-05-01 19:27

A great game, although I got bored after ~30 minutes of playing and not having even half the money required to dig up.I guess I am just bad at it :p
Other than that, the game feels good to play, control works well, and the digging sound is very satisfying. Good job!

Simply fantastic.

This game stole 76 minutes of my life just to describe to me the definition of anticlimactic. It was fun but it needs a better ending. PLEASE

Not the kind of game I like to play, but it's really well done. NIce music, and the controls are solid.
