Start Mining in Drill Core
Developer Hungry Couch and publisher tinyBuild have announced their latest title, Drill Core which is coming out on Early Access on PC in Q4 2024. Prepare yourself to dig into the center of the planet, find rare materials, and defend yourself from alien attacks in this strategic mining game. Additionally, the playtest is currently available on Steam and anyone can try it out right away.
Drill Core is a 2D strategic mining and colony simulator game with tower defense elements. You will work as a manager of your own mining crew and descend deeper into the planet’s core. Plan your descent carefully and manage your resources wisely. Every decision counts as you race against time to prevent climate collapse.
Aliens will attack the platform every night, so you need to strategically fortify it. Build turrets and upgrade your defenses to repel increasingly monstrous threats. Experiment with the layouts to maximize their effectiveness, and use new technologies you discover during the run. Each mission is unique, with procedurally generated planets, monsters, and conditions to test your strategy prowess.
