Hello again! Fan here, I am unsure how finished this version is? As in, whether or not minerals and collection have actually been added? However, I do love the destructible terrain - it reminds me of Hydroneer, or Astroneer in a good way - but I believe a more fleshed out version should include a better tutorial. What are the minerals? Why do random yellow gems and rock pop out of the ground whenever I dig deep enough? Is there a certain way to collect them?
These are questions I asked myself, but overall, I think this is a very solid core of what could be a fun little miner game. The movement is very satisfying - it feels fast, but not so fast that I am unable to process where I am going, and the destruction radius on the mining tool feels about right - perhaps upgrades could be put in to customize this? Either a general path to increase the area of effect, or specialized ones where the player can adjust values themselves for different effects? (I.E., a smaller radius but with a chance to collect more minerals.)
Very nice ambient sound effects.
Would love to see a more fleshed out product one of these days!

I am sorry I was unable to donate; hopefully in the future I can contribute something.
