About the game

A co-op space mining game for 1-4 players. Drill through hostile moons, blast crystal seams open and haul the ore back to your patched-together ship while the swarm closes in. Then run for the pod. Play on one screen or online with friends.

Original Steam description

Dig. Haul. Get out alive.

Drop onto a hostile moon with up to three friends, on one screen or online. Drill through the rock, blow crystal seams open with C4 and carry the haul back to your pod. The biggest core crystals take two of you to lift, so someone has to watch your backs.

A moon to tear apart

Dig, blast and tunnel anywhere you like: straight down to the rich veins, around a nest, or a quick escape route back up. Every map is generated fresh.

The swarm is coming

The deeper you dig, the angrier the hive gets. More than 30 kinds of bugs come for you: swarmers, acid spitters, tunnelers bursting out of the walls, snatchers that reel your friends up to the ceiling, bombers, stalkers that only move in the dark, and bosses waiting on the far moons.

Run for the pod

Call extraction and the countdown starts. Get everyone aboard with as much ore as you can carry. Anyone left behind loses their share.

Build your Frankenship

Your pay goes into a patchwork ship that grows a new part with every upgrade: sharper drills, bigger jet tanks, a pod turret, cargo lifts, a forge, a lab, a kennel for pet bugs, and a drill mech that comes along on every job.
