You play as a dwarf in a hastily constructed drillship delving deep into an abandoned mining plot to search for much needed metals. However, the new inhabitants of the plot are not to keen on you invading their territory.

A/D to adjust offset

W/S to adjust charge depth, enemies will be stunned with in the 20 radius explosion. (10 up , and 10 down in depth)

SPACE to deploy charges

activate the control panel buttons to upgrade ship and craft more ammo.

(gold for dig rate, iron for dig power, iron and copper for ammo)

If the bad guys is both within 4 depth and within 1 offset of your craft, you die.

I really tried to puzzle this one out, but I really found it impenetrable; not only was I not sure what I was supposed to be doing, I wasn't sure if pressing WASD or clicking buttons was actually changing anything,
If you continue with this post-compo, I think it would be a really good idea to have some sort of feedback to the player that they've done something, and how thats effected things

Unfortunately, couldn't figure out what am I supposed to do. Tried to press the mentioned buttons but nothing happened.

I don't know what I'm supposed to be doing. WASD and space don't seem to be doing anything.

I like the game idea, but in its current state the lack of input feedback makes it hard to tell if this is a game or a simulation. Also, I got no audio, if this isn't a bug you might consider opting out of the category.

I really enjoyed the game and is a good interpretation of the "deeper and deeper" theme. Took me a little while to figure out how to increase my gold, iron, and copper.
