Deep beneath the surface lies a world of endless caves, rich veins of ore, and forgotten treasures.
In the dwarven kingdom Mearel, deep below a mountain, you are a lone dwarf miner descending into a massive, fully procedural cave system. Every world is unique — carved by cellular automata and filled with winding tunnels, massive caverns, and hidden ore veins.
Key Features:
Procedural Cave Generation – No two worlds are the same. Explore vast underground networks that feel alive.
Deep Mining & Progression – Start with basic tools and upgrade your pickaxe power, mining speed, and light, through a town shopkeeper.
Rich Ore Economy – Mine Coal, Iron, Copper, Silver, Lead, Tungsten, Gold, Orichalcum, Cobalt, Xenonite, and Texinite. Sell your haul or use it for future upgrades.
Grappling Hook Traversal – Swing across huge chasms and reach unreachable areas with a physics-based grappling hook.
Persistent Worlds – Multiple save slots with full world persistence (mined tiles, town location, inventory, and upgrades are saved).
Cozy Town Hub – Return to your central town to sell ores, buy powerful upgrades, and rest between expeditions.
Compass Navigation – Never get lost — your compass always points back to the town.
Relaxing yet Rewarding Gameplay – Beautiful pixel art, smooth mining loop, and satisfying progression with no permadeath stress.
