About the Game

Welcome to Moondrills — a competitive action game. You and your rivals land on an asteroid with one goal: gather enough resources, meet your extraction quota, and get back home. But victory won’t come easy.

Drill pixel by pixel, collect ore, and use it to upgrade yourself and recharge your weapons. You can’t max out every stat, so choose wisely between drill power, health, speed, inventory size or damage.

If peaceful mining bores you—or you just want to take out all your friends—arm yourself with gadgets scattered across the asteroid: Turret, Mines, Dash, or Shield—and eliminate the competition.

Features:

  • Pixel by Pixel Mining: Tear through the surface to uncover the richest veins.

  • Upgrade System: Turn ore into upgrades for drill power, health, speed, inventory size, or damage.

  • Variety of Gadgets: Find gadgets that aid in mining or let you take out—and defend against—other players. Among them: the Black Hole, the Evil Gnome, the Hungry Worm, Deus ex Machina, and many others!

  • Quick Matches: Each game lasts just 10–15 minutes—no time to get bored!

  • Split-screen multiplayer for up to 6 players, plus online play via Steam Remote Play Together.

  • Solo mode with multiple types of enemies.

Looking for a casual hangout with friends or an all‑out competitive showdown? Join Moondrills!

Warnings:

  • Only one player can use keyboard and mouse. Other players need to use controllers.

  • The game does not support online multiplayer. Playing together over the internet is possible only via Steam Remote Play.
