This is a unit selection game, kind of like starcraft. It's really rough around the endges and sometimes doesn't work properly but it can be quite an interesting concept. You need to select the Golems and have them dig into the ground to get away from the explosive shrooms that are ravaging the tunnel. As you dig you might see some slightly gray blocks, these blocks are clay and when mined will drop a resource that can be used to increase your army of workers or to build ladders to help you get to higher places.

I wish you the best of luck in the mine comrad.

Controls:

Select a unit by clicking them, or drag-select to select multiple. Right-click somewhere they can move to have them move there.

On the left side, you have buttons. The first is to mine. You can click to select a block to mine or you can drag select to select large chunks of blocks to mine. This will make a mining icon appear where your mouse is and when you finish selecting your blocks, it'll auto change back to a normal icon. p.s. Mining has issues sometimes where the kind of the unit of just give up when they do this you can tell them to move somewhere or click the cancel button then get them back to mining.

The second command is to grab clay, this is the resource used to build ladders and allies. This has an issue where your golems are unable to pick up clay if they're already in the same space as the clay, so you might have to tell them to move off of the stop than click the clay button.

The third command is to build ladders. This will grab clay if you don't have it and use that to build a ladder.

The fourth will build another golem. This will require 2 clay. The first will build the legs and the second will build the body. Once built you will be able to control the golem and have him help with your digging endeavors.

The fifth action is to cancel other actions. This will tell the golems to stop doing what they're doing. Sometimes the golems get stuck on random tasks so using this will allow you to cancel their tasks and move on to better things than standing around.
