Top Game Larsi. Hat Laune gemacht. :D

Ich hatte nur ein paar Abstürze über die Browser Version. Allgemein gute Idee und Umsetzung. Mehr Variation bei den "Welten" wo man Bergbau betreibt, bzw. mehr Upgrades oder ein Sequel wäre nice ^^ Aber so schon nice gemacht. :D

Zum Balanceing kann ich nur sagen, manchmal wars echt grindy gerade die zwischen Steps von Eisen, zu Gold, zu Diamant. Aber durchaus machbar. Ich hatte keine großen Probleme, bis auf die Zeit. Nur einmal habe ich zuerst die Welt vergrößert, statt die Geschwindigkeit/Reichweite der Spitzhacke, was etwas zäh wurde.

Die Download Version hatte ich nicht getestet. Ich hatte ein paar Crashs in der Browser Version. Je weiter man im Progress kam, desto öfter. Alle 3-5 Minuten circa im Endgame. :D

Hab mal 'nen Pastebin erstellt mit dem Fehler:

I’ll answer in English so it’s easier to follow here :) M4D_MAXX, did you blast through the game that fast? :D How long did it take you roughly? :O

Thanks a lot for playing and for your valuable feedback! Were the upgrades to unlock Gold and Diamond too expensive, or were the upgrades that require Gold or Diamonds the ones that felt too costly? Which upgrades do you think I should make cheaper to reduce the grind? Or should I just increase the spawn rate for Gold and Diamond instead?

I’ve looked into the crash — large generated rifts aren’t very performance-friendly yet and require quite a bit of RAM. The browser version hit the RAM limit, which caused the crash. The downloadable version should run much more smoothly since it can use more system RAM.

Thanks again for playing! :)

Thanks Larsi ^^

Makes sense for the Ram Limit of the Browser Version. I give the Download Version a Try. But I have to start again, I guess? ^^

It takes about 2h or maybe 3h for me to finish, roughly. I just tested it while watching streams and downloading some stuff. Don't look at the Clock when I started.

A bit of both the Upgrades to unlock Gold and Diamond was costly, but the later ones that require Gold and Diamond were sometimes grindy. But still good, balanced. And not the worst case.

A bit higher spawn rate could compensate it a bit, maybe. The Low spawn rate of the pure energy is good the way it is.

Another Suggestion: Maybe a different Color for the Diamonds, more in the Light Blue scheme. Sometimes it was difficult to differentiate between Iron and Diamond. Especially when the perspective was different. From Above you see the differenz more clearly but sometimes not from the side. But could just be me xD

I’ve now tried the download version. Finished after about 4 hours — a bit slower than before, but I was distracted by streams and emails.

The crash didn’t occur again. The rest worked fine, just like in the browser version.

However, I forgot to mention a minor issue I encountered a few times in both versions:
Sometimes, when exiting through the portal, I would glitch outside the cube and fall down to the station. This usually happened when the portal wall was already fully exposed, and I was standing on a white filler block positioned exactly one block away from the portal. From there, I either stepped or sprinted directly toward the portal. At the moment I touched it — when the teleport should trigger — I instead clipped out of the cube and fell.

If there’s enough time left during the fall, and you then jump further down from the station or passing it while falling, it counts as a completed level. Otherwise, you get the fail screen.
It doesn’t happen often, and I haven’t found a reliable way to trigger it, but it has occurred multiple times.
