Explore the cavernous depths of Mine 49, guiding your little robot companion to collect valuable resources. There's only one problem though - it's not very well built!

This game features:
* battery management - power drains the more resources you collect
* unstable controls - mining collapses and low battery cause control randomization
* difficulty ramp - the more instability introduced into the environment, the more severe the consequences
* really bad programmer pixel art and sounds (hey, I tried!)

Check out the source on GitHub. Play immediately, right from your browser.

Tools used:

* Phaser 3 (framework) + VS Code (editor)
* Piskel (characters)
* Spartan + Paint.net (tiles)
* Bfxr (sound) + BeepBox (music)

Tags: #pixel art, #procedural generation, #procjam

Quite creative the way the unstable theme was interpreted to mean that your controls get changed around a lot. I had fun figuring that out. Glad the controls were on the left. Not sure if there was an ultimate goal but I wound up getting 6 points.

Really liked the idea. Graphics is simple but sufficient to know what is going on :) Nice little game.

Finally got to play your game! I like the music a lot. I wasn't sure why stuff kept collapsing though, it seemed like I didn't have any kind of issue and then all of a sudden it was game over.
