So I did not finish creating this game so this is just a prototype with very little functionality.
Instead I am hoping that you will write some ideas you get when playing it.
My own idea was to develop a little "mining city" of some sort where you handle explosives, build elevators, fortify the caves and sell the material you find to be able to build more.
I love the idea! - just found it because our projects have the same name! My only issue is when moving the rubble gets in the way and I found that annoying, as well as the mining feeling a bit slow. But, I love the concept of a game like this - just needs some development and work.
Reminds me of cortex command mining. I recommend having an overlay showing the blocks that will break and having the pickaxe remove rubble in a larger area after consecutive hits.
So I saw your original blog post about not being able to finish this.. I'm glad you did post the unfinished product. I was looking forward to seeing the digging mechanic in action and it works pretty well. Definitely the beginnings of a game here. Perhaps we'll see what it can become in the next jam!
