Your 'Exciting' Mission: Lead, Manage, Innovate

As a Platform Manager at DrillCore, you'll oversee a dedicated team of miners, carriers, and guards. Your mission?

please make a multiplayer version of this game or something coop like this, i could see someone collecting things and the other defending and upgrading
好玩,就是玩到后面有点累,后期有一键挖矿就好了,不然没这么多精力
some concepts are underworked, and explanations of perks are unclear; also would be nice if collectibles had some flavour - like groups of them after collecting giving tiny bonuses or little perks; at 10th run the dystopian worker barks drive you insane (there's too few of them); the game in general despite having lots of content is kind of bland in meaning or lore sense; definite maybe
The game play loop is enjoyable and there are plenty of permanent upgrades. The balance between mining during the day and defending your base at night provides a solid balance of strategy and planning, but never feeling truly overwhelmed. There are multiple different play styles so the game has great variety. Overall the roguelite mechanics are done well and I highly recommend to the game for anyone who enjoys turret defense.
A genre I like performed masterfully. Gameplay, Graphics, Music, Humour and it feels well balanced. Big <3 for this one, definitely recommend, a must buy/play :).
