I really like the game. It is very polished. I admire the number of systems that are interacting with one another at any point in the game. The game is pretty addictive too. This is aided by the low-entry level to playing and understanding the rules.

Probably a little text when hovering on the main menu items will help make things clearer. Moreover, sometimes I feel lost. I am not sure if this is intended as general feeling of mining or not. If not, probably a mini-map that is updated as the player explores more will help.
Also, If I decided to go to the second and third depth layers, I am not sure if I miss things in the pervious layers or they are regenerated again in the next layers. 
Probably I need to invest more time in the game to get it.

Overall, the game is brilliant! it is fun and shows your passion, effort and time invested to create it. I believe it is market ready too. Looking forward to see its future updates.

I love the game especially the UI but after reading the description I'm still not clear about my objections in the game, but still I love the game 

Developer

Thank you for your feedback, I will try making it clearer to understand what's the goal of the game with a tutorial or more guidance.
The goal is to mine, sell ores, buy new gear and in the long term collect all the artifacts found in the mines.

Ok will love to see the artifacts

I love how calm the game is, it really reminded me of Minecraft with its relaxing vibe and mining mechanics. The art is also fantastic, and I really enjoyed how it all comes together

Thank you, I'm happy it was an enjoyable experience for you :)

Great game and a really interesting idea! I’m super impressed that you made all the art for the game, and everything runs so smoothly. I’d suggest looking into the new player experience. For example, you could lower the initial stamina and start with a smaller mine so players can quickly understand the gameplay loop. Perhaps make the first mine free, give them 10 stamina to clear a few blocks, and when their stamina runs out, let them buy a potion that permanently increases stamina slightly. Then, guide them by setting a clear goal, like earning 100g for the next mine, so they don’t feel lost.

Otherwise, it’s a great game! The story elements were a nice touch, and congratulations on finishing the bootcamp!

Developer

Thank you for your feedback, really appreciate it!

You're right, what you said about new player experience is something I can work on. As I had too many things to do at once in the project, it was already intense to put everything together.
In the future I'll definitely think about adding this beginning progression, I really like the idea.
My weakness has always been game design 💀 But this kind of feedback is valuable to let me know what's missing, thank you.

I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed the game, means a lot :)

The sound is therapeutic…and the blue wave particles when the character is exiting the game was a nice touch…Very Nice UI…and I like that you got time to make an inventory system…top game👏🏾

I love the fact that I need a proper strategy to win this game. Yes, I learnt that the hard way. 

10/10 - I love the art direction and graphics. This is definitely what i would be looking for when searching for a casual game.

Developer

Thanks a lot Lucky, I'm really happy to hear your positive feedback.
Indeed it's a chill game but with a balance of strategic use of stamina! The smarter you mine the more profit you earn :)

Great game  10/10, I love the choice of Graphics . Though i got lost while mining 🤷‍♂️ a help menu would make this more enjoyable.

Developer

Thanks a lot, I'm glad you enjoyed the game!
What do you think would be helpful to have in the help menu?

Incredibly well-thought-out and well-crafted, it's easy to spend hours on it when you're bored - you just can't get enough of it. Congratulations on the creation of this game and good luck with the rest.
