July 2024

Very fun game, simplistic in nature but with some depth and engaging strategy. I really like tower defence games so this really works for me. It's also made by a guy from the same country as me -- always makes you smile :) If you enjoy tower defence + minecraft mix -- this is for you.

I wish I could remember the streamer's name who said it, but they said this is the perfect podcast game, which I totally agree with. It's not overly complicated, and its simplicity is not such that it gets stale too quickly. I find myself constantly coming back to it when I want to play something that has both tower defense and RPG elements. Also, there's always the chance of finding a lumen gun in one of the randomly generated maps, which is not always guaranteed, but when found is a lot of fun to use. If you need a title to kick back, relax, and have a lot of fun with, I highly recommend this game.

If you have been craving some top down action blasting some bugs, then this is the game for you! This is a fun twin stick style top down hybrid wave defense mining game with plenty of variety in map and enemies and weapons to have a blast over and over. With challenging gameplay and enemies, there is plenty to keep you thinking and shooting and entertained for a while. Get your boom stick and drill, its time to mine your way to victory! I give this game a strong 8/10.

This game is awesome. for your first game i recommend you skip campaign and go strait to wave survival. its probably what you are looking for. and its really fun

Dec. 2023

This game to put it simply, is a diamond in the rough. it has an addictive and fun gameplay loop with its exploration and resource gathering mechanics. Most of the environment is destructible via the use of a drill, that you use to carve out tunnel systems and cave networks. you also use this for gathering your essential resources that you use for building a base, getting new gear, and also upgrades. You also have to fight off local hostile fauna (giant bugs) that attack you in waves with the intent to destroy your base. This is where the game turns int oa base defense/tower defense game where you setup walls, sentry turrets and explosives to deal with the ramping up horde + bosses. You can also do all this with shared screen/remote play together drop in/out coop with officially 2 players, but there is an experimental feature to enable up to 5 player coop. Even with its issues (specifically with the UI and zoom out feature being wacky) the coop is alot of fun. things that i think make this a really great game for its value. ~it has a full fledged campaign that you can play either single player or coop that you can probably play in around 10 or so hours depending on how much you try to rush through it. However you can do different builds each play through, as you get currency as a reward for each mission you complete to unlock different tech upgrades. ~it has pre-set scenarios that you can play that have been hand crafted for various challenges ~ it has a map editor that the community can use to create their own custom maps and share them via steam workshop! ~you have random map generation as well that you can setup your own scenario with different win conditions and challenges The game however is not quite perfect, and does have a few issues that i will also list in hopes the devs see it ~The UI is very busy, and also quite clunky. The issues compound quite substantially with Coop, as everyone's inventory and status take up a significant chunk of screen real estate, and its quite jarring where it positions them. I feel that this could instead be more horizontally positioned, and each player occupies a corner of the screen with a two row configuration. ~The UI scale also needs more range. 70% is still way too big, needs to be able to seriously go down to 40% ~The zoom in/out seems quite random, and needs to be able to be adjustable to a minimum zoom level to make coop more consistent to play ~Every player needing to build their own upgrade station feels janky. Would feel better if there was just a button attached to the structure to toggle between different players. ~No online coop, it is only shared screen local coop.
