About the Game

Warning: very early access!

This game is extremely early in its development. If you have any comments about your experience, I would be very welcoming of them :)

Gameplay

Take control of Wilford, a determined wombat who embarks on a galactic adventure to mine alien worlds for treasures to save his home from foreclosure. Inspired by the classic gameplay, this roguelike dungeon crawler challenges players to strategize, adapt, and explode their way to fortune.

Features

  • Explosive Mining: Use dynamite strategically to defeat enemies, clear obstacles, and uncover treasures.

  • Roguelike Progression: Accumulate wealth to upgrade gear and abilities, enabling deeper exploration in subsequent runs.

  • Dynamic Levels: Explore procedurally generated planets with increasing difficulty, each with unique layouts and alien ecosystems.

  • Risk vs. Reward: Players must balance pushing further into planets for greater rewards with the risk of losing everything.
