Little Dig Game

Play:

Full screen Touch: Tap the planet to deploy a worker. Tap the flask for research, tap an upgrade to buy it, drag to pan the research tree. · Keyboard: Mouse: click the planet to deploy workers, click the flask for research. No keyboard needed.

About:

A small, dry-humoured incremental about working for a corporation that consumes planets to extract value. Tap the planet to drop workers, spend what they dig on Latin-titled research, and work your way through four planets while your foreman, your researchers and something under the crust all have opinions. Pure JavaScript and canvas, with a short, well-paced story that actually ends.
