The controls are easy: you can tap where you want to go, or tap and hold. Sometimes I do get a little frustrated as far as the turning goes... But not too often. The story included (via beacons) is interesting and creative. It can be quite a challenging game, but it's worth it, in my opinion. The graphics were great, and it it's a fun way to spend your time if you're bored!

I like the graphics it's a challenging game. At first I didn't know what to do but I figured out that you gather rare elements while going through obstacles. Fun game to bad there isn't many levels but, untill then a fun game

The gameplay was decent. It was frustrating how the vehicle would not move around obstacles when getting stuck and no mini map or way of zooming out even a little was frustrating. The propaganda in the text at the beacons (the storyline) really threw out my desire to help fund the game.

I figured I'd give this game a shot and while it's not my favorite type of game style it is still very well done for what it is. A majority of the negative comments I see on here are from people like me who prefer faster games but they chose to shame the devs instead of actually view the game for what it is. If you're laying in bed and want to play a relaxing simple game stress free game then this is what you're looking for just don't download it expecting machine guns and alien invasions.

I like the game. Rather enjoyable to say the least, but as another review described, I'd love if the littlw bot would travel around other objects for me. I found it pleasant watching the machine figure out its own way to get to the goal, similar to watching an ant collect food for it's queen. Relaxing, stress free, and fun to watch. If you could add it as an option at least, i would love it. It eased my mind in a time of tension thinking it was moving on its own.

I think I saw a similar comment about having a boost to get across a gap. It would be cool if we could hover over a line with the cart and get a temporary boost to cross a wide gap kinda like a racecar game feature. But I guess it might reduce the relaxation level to other people though. please respond :)

Very original and relaxing.. I loved the way this game is made and its simplicity and its music make it so relaxing,however,it would be great if its gameplay wasn't so limited so an endless world option would be a great fit.

This game has a lot of potential. Especially if levels and features continue to be added over time. I played through all of the available content, and here's what I think: the gameplay is fairly relaxing, the music is beautiful, and the graphics are nice. Controlling the vehicle can be a little tricky (once or twice it bugged out and my little arrow disappeared for twenty seconds or so), but it's not too bad. The game is a little short at the moment, and I feel it will still be a bit short after the currently planned levels are added, so I hope even more are coming. To improve the game, aside from more levels, more customization or permanent upgrade options for the vehicle would be nice. Also, the devs might want to consider removing the sermon at the end, and toning down the preachiness of the story as you play. A huge percentage of the population believe in some form of higher power or supernatural existence, and I really don't think they're all to blame for Earth's problems, so repeatedly implying that's the case will lose a large number of potential players for this game. Plus, it's just not fun to get preached at during a game that claims to be made for relaxing. Other than that, though, this game is pretty much on track (no pun intended). I'll definitely keep an eye on future updates.

Game instantly crashes after "verifying downloads" then showing a screen asking people to check out their indieGoGo page. If you want backers, it's probably best to let them play the game as a demo first!

Well its not fast paced but we all need to relax and take a step away from games like gta and cod and juat relax.

I don't see why people complain when the game runs smoothly. No tutorial, you just gradually jump right to it :)

Really slow paced. No storyline. It is more frustrating for me than relaxing.

Love the music! For a small pixelated game, it has a ton of mysterious atmosphere.

T70%
by T####:

I like the music, and the graphics, but the issue is that I still don't get the idea or fun part, mostly boring but maybe the exploration part was what I didn't like about it.

T70%
by T####:

Simple but graphical, bit slow and hard to navigate but that's the point of the game to explore.

IT is not a game worth buying for 80 Rs. It is worth 10 Rs.

Love the music, and the design. But I felt the miner not going around obstacle a little frustrating(a lot of clicking required to get around a pillar for example). I also felt like the game needs more challange/puzzles. It currently has a memory puzzle aspect, but diffrent types of puzzles could keep the game intresting and fresh as you progress. Finally some sort of reward or upgrade system could be intresting as a way to reward the player or create a goal to work towards.

Perfect to kill time and relax. I do think turning speed should be slightly sped up along with acceleration. Heres an exploit: when tapping multiple crystals it is possible to tap and activate more than you can hold. Then when dropping your load off the suspended crystals will float to you, practically giving you an extra slot for crystals. 1 bug I found is during world 1 level 5 the gate may not open and if the level is completed you will be stuck in an infinite loop.

Dumb question; There are no instructions. How do I collect the gems? I tried tapping on the bot, but that did not work. Also, if the bot needs to put the on the train, how do you do that? Thank you for the response! It is a lot more fun when I know what is going on. :)

Well, this little tiny game es awesome, the music is beautiful and the visual style too. The only thing is that music sounds a little cranky some times

Backtracking Simulator 3000. Do you like retracing your steps with a slow character? Then this is the game for you! By level 10 you'll be collecting 60 crystals with the same tiny ship, same tiny base capacity and same crawling speed....

by X####:

The ai pathing on the bot needs some work, it doesn't go where you tell it to without you holding its hand. What little gameplay there is just seems like a vehicle for a story told one line at a time. And why the hell does the bot's crystal capacity go from 5 to 6, mid-level?

X70%
by X####:

Point where you want to go. Point to a crystal to collect and regularly deposit it to ensure you do not backtrack. Solve the occasional memory puzzle. Very simple game and I can see why people would get bored of the game very quickly.
