Hello everyone and welcome to DIGGERGUN! My name's Kabloop and I'm the developer of DIGGERGUN, and today I'm super excited to finally release the demo on the Steam store! Our demo release on Steam has been done to coincide with the launch of our Kickstarter, which happened today! For those wondering WTF DIGGERGUN is, here's a short summary: DIGGERGUN is an oppressive platformer about workers, low wages and the environment. After arriving on an island off the coast of Cornwall to work as Engineer, youre quickly put to work in the lithium mines due to the flexibility clause in your contract. With the Cornwall Mining Corporation demanding a 3,000 fee to terminate your employment contract and take you back to the mainland, youre left with nothing to do but dig. ---- It's been a crazy long road to get to this point but I'm so happy to be able to finally share the game I've been working on with the public. I hope you enjoy it and feel free to share any feedback with me on social media or through Steam! Naturally, I'll be keeping an eye on the build and aiming to fix any bugs that pop up! Also a note to Linux users, the demo is currently available on Windows but I do have the Linux version ready to go, it just needs a few more days of testing. I'll post an announcement when it's ready to go of course! Thank you to everyone for their support with DIGGERGUN!

🎮 Full Controller Support
After arriving on an island off the coast of Cornwall to work as Engineer, you’re quickly put to work in the lithium mines due to the flexibility clause in your contract. With the Cornwall Mining Corporation demanding a £3,000 fee to terminate your employment contract and take you back to the mainland, you’re left with nothing to do but dig.
DIGGERGUN’s world and gameplay is defined by its life-sim system, with the player required to carefully manage their time, energy and minimum wage in order to succeed as they dig through randomly generated mines looking for lithium.
What you do, when you do it and how you do it has never been so important in this oppressive world. Can you overcome the corporation, as it fights to drain you of every ounce of your spirit and stamina?
Features:
- Day-and-night cycle with an energy system where your actions truly matter as the sim-system tracks your gameplay and punishes/rewards you for your choices,
- An atmospheric world with unique characters who run on their own schedules. Who you interact with, and who you don’t, can change the outcome of your story,
- An all-to-real sim where wages, food, rent, and much more are based on the current cost-of-living in the United Kingdom, with tax calculated to real-world rates,
- Randomly generated mines always keep you on your toes and increase in difficulty as you move through them.
