Go as far as you can on a mining lift, but watch out for falling debris and toxic slimes!

Some notes I took during gameplay:
- Collision could be expanded for objects to prevent clipping.
- While throwing the objects is rather funny, a mechanic to put them down would likely be better for a fast-paced game like this.
- Objects which fall on each-other sometimes seem to clip through the floor and are lost. A similar problem exists with slimes pushing ore into the ground.
- Highlighting for the various objects in the tutorial would likely help to ease the player into the gameplay loop.
- The tools can be thrown behind the machines, making it hard to grab them.
- The hover detection for held ore to be put into the furnace is a little strict, sometimes making it hard to actually insert it without throwing it. Separate buttons for interaction and throwing would likely work just fine.
- Multiple ore put into the furnace is not processed as multiple items.
- The rapid-falling animation is very well done, but also exposes some of the items which have been pushed beneath the elevator.
Best of luck in your future work!
