You've got your shovel. You've got bucket. What more could you ask for? Well, two helpful tools are waiting for you as you dig deeper. Enjoy!

Controls: Click buttons. There's some typing as well, if you get that deep.

Disclaimer: This is what I call a not-so-idle game, because it was intended to be an idle game, but the "idle" part was descoped. As such, your enjoyment may vary. It's short, though, and you'll maybe have a nice trip if you go in expecting very little.
Genres: simulation

I can't dig or do anything. Could you give controls for this game?

AS far as I understand this game, you click dig a bunch until your bucket fills up then you wait for your bucket to empty as you click and hold. I just don't see how skill comes into play, it seems like there is no insentive to carry on, as the gameplay itself is not what I would consider 'fun'. The gamplay is very repetitive and exceedingly linear.

@noam-zeise Harsh, but fair. Skill-based play was in no way our goal, though.

@cubex It's all buttons on the screen. The buttons in the top-right open up tool cards, which can be used for excavation.

The "Download" section says there is a Linux version, but when I download the only available zip, it's a .exe
