This game is an idle miner game where you do pretty much nothing.
The aim of the game is to earn money to buy more miners to dig deeper and eventually “win.”
This game is pretty much exactly what I planned, it’s easy, minimal and fun.
I found my art skills benefited from this because of the pixel art and sizing the objects.
i learnt how to make a game in this project because to be honest I haven’t made anything else properly in game maker this year.
the biggest challenge I came across was getting the GUI to move with the camera when digging down.
If I were to spend more time improving my project I would add multipliers to earn more money and add a buff to the digging down system where you earn more money the deeper you dig.
If I was to start this project again i would add more detail to the background and GUI. The Miners will never change, they are perfect.
my main inspiration for this game was a game I played on coolmathsgames called Mr.mine https://www.coolmathgames.com/0-mr-mine
