*Dive into deep, dark caverns in your trusty drillbot!*
Defeat enemies without getting hit to rack up a combo, and drill precious ores to make your combo count for more!
5 short, hand-crafted levels.
Sometimes, you have to trust your instincts and turn off your spotlights to give your battery a chance to recover.
If you find an oil vein, you can of course just drill it to just recharge your battery and regain some health, instead.
If you get stuck on a rock, you'll get squished by the merciless autoscroll.
There are terrifying, unknowable dangers hiding in the deep.
*When one of them finds you and draws near, your best option is to lay low and hide.*
Content Warning: Some flashing lights, flickering sprites. If you suffer from photosensitive epilepsy, proceed with caution. (There's certainly more extreme examples in video games, but you never know.)
Controls:
- Arrow keys - Move
- Ctrl - Hold to charge dash attack, aim with arrows, release to dash
- Alt - Attack
- Spacebar - Toggle Spotlights
- F4 - Toggle Fullscreen
- F5 - Toggle Music
Repeatedly press Ctrl or Alt when drilling something that doesn't give in immediately to push through!
