Loop Miner

Loop Miner is an incremental mining game set beneath the ground, where the player controls a small mole miner working through an endless mine. The core cycle involves gathering resources, selling minerals, collecting artefacts and pushing further down. The game is built around simple controls, and progress can be made in short sessions as well as over longer play.

The player starts with a basic pickaxe and spends earnings on upgrades to equipment, including the pickaxe itself, turrets, drones and mining abilities. These upgrade choices determine how quickly resources are collected and how fast the mole grows in strength, which in turn allows access to deeper areas containing more valuable resources and new goals.

A loop system sits at the centre of the game. When a mining expedition ends, progression is retained, and each new run begins from a stronger position than the last, letting the player go faster and deeper than before. Loop Miner has now been released on Steam, where it holds a Mixed rating from more than 50 user reviews.
