About
Just Keep Digging is an open-world action-adventure mining simulator.
Play as John in Bodie, a company mining town. Meet the weekly profit quota or face termination. Use extra company coins to upgrade your gear, dig deeper for rarer resources, and uncover ancient fossils and ruined structures. Beware of dangerous cave dwellers—bring a weapon along with your pickaxe.


Mine for materials in a procedurally generated world and sell them to meet the company’s weekly profit quotas. Use extra coins to upgrade your gear and dig deeper for rarer and more valuable resources. Complete your catalog by discovering all types of resources while navigating the dangers of the underground.


After returning from a mining expedition, sell your materials at the marketplace to earn company coin. Use your earnings to buy upgrades at the store: a better pickaxe to break blocks faster, a stronger headlamp to see further, torches to light your path, a larger backpack to hold more items, better gloves to swing the pickaxe quicker, dynamite to blow up large areas, rails for faster travel in and out of the mine, and many more.


While digging for materials, you might encounter foes along the way. Be sure to bring not just a pickaxe but a weapon as well; you'll need it to fend off all the creatures that get in your way.

On your journey to find the rarest materials, you may stumble across ancient ruined structures, fossilized bones, large twisting caves, and dungeons full of valuable loot. Each discovery not only adds to your findings but also boosts the company's wealth.

I made the game...
Amazing game so far! I highly recommend.
This is a pretty fun game, I'd recommend it. I really like some of the mobs in the game like the cat throwing dynamite :) and the cow worm, so yeah I'd say its a pretty great game.
I have so much fun playing this game I would highly recommend.
I lost track of time playing this game. HIGHLY recommend. The mining is satisfying, the explosives are fun, and the soundtrack is top notch. The saloon is very valuable cause it sells drinks that give various effect like increasing your mining speed or power. I think this game is a solid buy.
So far I enjoy it, I might update my review later when I can get some more time in. Its a simple game overall, but fun. You make money mining, spend that money to upgrade your gear, and try to fight the never ending quota. I played the demo for a few hours, and I have an hour so far in the full game. I would say if you like the demo, you will like the full game. I think my only complaint is that I feel like it probably could have been priced closer to 5 dollars, but I might change my mind on that as I progress (I personally like to get about 1 hour of game play per dollar spent, which I still feel this game will hit at that price anyways so a very small negative to me). Overall would definitely recommend so far!
Great game, lots of fun
Super chill, simple and surprisingly addictive. You can really feel the love put into it. Hope more people discover this — the dev deserves it! ❤️
The Quota takes most of the fun out of the game IMO, its un-necessary to the actual game play.
