Thank you for the feedback.  I have edited the game page to remedy these issues (the code has not been edited). I forgot to list the controls initially.

I like the premise, and it's an impressive start. However, the controls aren't listed, and the objective is unclear. I mined until my inventory was full, then pressed Shift, rocketed into the sky, and got stuck. There could be something interesting here, but I wasn't able to find it.

Nice effort!

I kept accidentally resetting by pressing R, and beyond that had some trouble figuring out how to do everything.
