Is this game being developed?
I lost my progress, can someone give me their save game :/
wow that game is so fun and im blown away
my game doesn't want to load in anymore
i play on the browser and now it just does load but keeps for a very long time or indefenetly but it never stoped loading at the setting up stuff and i cant play it because of that
but i still think it is a good game
it now works after i deleted all cookies from my browser and because of that i lost my save
now i cant save and the other save for this world is also gone so i cant quit the game
i havent played in like 4 months and now my saved game is gone
Apparently you can get stuck here
Oh there's a unstuck button? Nice
how did you get stuck?
i want a version that can be installed on windows [maybe also mac
the demo is also on steam
Bro stole from sandusty on steam (demo version)
it is the same person
i think your a alt
i am not i just checked on steam and they seem to be the same person
you know that it might not be real
maybe but i dont care
can you add keybind customization for dig? Really cool game!
Kinetic slag presses keep on getting stuck, I think you should make gold and spores come out of the press at full speed so that they won't clog, and it probably wouldn't be too hard either. I know you can use launchers to stop it from clogging, but it is sort of annoying tbh. And can water please be heavier than slag, gold, redsand, and voidbloom? That would be so nice.
ive seen this from dangerouslyfunny and I thought "hmm looks like fun" BRO IT IS AWeSOME!!!!!!!111!!1!!
Hey! I didn't delete anything. That's strange!
Good job and thank you for the kind words! ❤️
do you know when the next update is cause i cant wait for the next update and even more for the full release
I'm 100% focusing on the full game right now so the demo will probably not have any separate updates until then. Thanks for playing!
follow me to be friends! ;)
thanks
Hello there! I’ve really been enjoying the game—it has tremendous potential. However, one thing that’s been bothering me is how slow the conveyor belts are; they feel absurdly sluggish. Do you have plans to introduce an upgrade that speeds them up? save from brazil im playing from steam.
Obrigado! Yeah, belt upgrades will come. :)
It's cool how this game is still just in development and so many Youtubers play/played it. I think it has really great potential.
Thank you! ❤️
Absolutely Loved this game. 100%-ed the game in a couple days! I couldn't stop!
I'm wondering what is coming up in the future for this game and espescially what kind of time frame you've got for more updates.
All in all, a great game. And I love how you can design your own solutions to problems. Thanks Lantto!
Thank you for playing and for the kind words! ❤️ Check out the latest devlog on Steam for some more info: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2764460/view/525340642559132046?l=englis...
Very impressive game! Bugs I’ve met:
p.s. I’d like to help whenever u wanna develop the language package, sothat more people can enjoy this :D
Thank you! :)
I made a custom 3:4 cover for IGDB, from the in-game logo and screenshots, so thought I might as well make a 2:3 steam cover too, if you want to use;
Sorry for the late reply, but thank you so much! ❤️
That's cool!
can you make it downloadable please
negative money
GLITCH!!! if i vacuum steam it freezes in place
Hey! Nice catch. :D
Thanks! I was actually just trying to find a way to get my steam unstuck
i have about 4 of these now >:D
they all broke in 10 minutes ;-;
how do you get slopes
dispite all the hate this game gets, its still very good with room for improovement ^.^
Thank you, but I haven't seen any hate. :D In fact, people have been very nice.
are the "bosses" in the browser version? i havent found any ;\
if i leave this cave it goes black
i think that's because of the way the lighting works in this game
really want to play but it wont work
ive tryed to play on a browser on mt tablet and it loads the game get sound but no picture just black screen
some games are designed not to work on certain devices due to copyrights or coding methods, or not designed to play on a tablet lol
you could also download it or get it as a zip file
Just a suggestion.
The default jet pack speed is horrendous. Make the max speed the default and replace the upgrade with something like waypoints, which can teleport you to their location.
mneh
Yeah, this has been changed in the playtest. The max speed is now default and the movement mechanic has been remade. Thanks!
very nice
Do you have any plans to make an Android version? We would love to play
I would love that, but I can imagination that controls may take getting used to...
after playing the demo for 25h on steam, i installed it with this plateform. problem , the game is stuck on the loading screen :s
played the steam demo a creative mode would be great
Just wanted to say Im having a lot of fun on the steam demo and saw that you actually got the demo running in the web so Im questioning what engine or framework (if any) you are using :)!
Thank you very much! ❤️ My own engine in TypeScript but I'm using a bit of PixiJS for the rendering, and React for the UI.
thank you!
Hi, cool that this is on Nextfest, had a ton of fun allready.
One question, will there be a bit of a zoom function in the future, my eyes are not the best and this will help alot. Perhaps I've gotto come to Discord so people can vote on this?
Regards, Jake ;-)
Hey! Yes, zoom will be in the full version. :) There are multiple threads about it in Discord if you want to pitch in. Search for "zoom" in the suggestions-feedback forum channel. Thanks!
please make smooth slides instead of rough block stairs, its kinda foiling my kinetic slag plan
Hi! Do you mind elaborating?
so like the normal block and when you make it into a diagonal its slightly rough and gets things stuck so if possible may you make it slightly smoother just to the point where things dont just land on the rough parts
can you send a screenshot of what you mean? I am having trouble visualizing it, and I haven't experienced it.
