A downloadable game for Windows

Made for Minijam #100


=== Description

You control a mining robot. The gameplay is based on iterations - periodically every N seconds the iteration brings random resources to the inventory.

The iteration time depends on the amount of  items in the inventory (and upgrades, see the upgrades section). Each item has a weight and the more overall weight of the inventory, the longer iterations will be. 

The mining robot has a fuel tank. Fuel periodically spent to maintain its functionality and must be renewed with certain refueling resources (Coal and Uranus at the moment). Also  fuel tank corrupts as the time passes, so the fuel consumption becomes larger.

If the fuel reaches zero the robot stops functioning and the game ends. As you play, you will meet merchants who you can sell the accumulated resources / buy upgrades or fuel for the robot.

The goal of the game is to earn 1 000 000 Δ (in-game currency) before you run out of fuel.
