A Miner Adventure
Use a pick-ax and bombs to dig tunnels and build scaffolding to traverse the caves. Be careful, you'll never know what kind of danger you'll find!

I just posted version 8.0.6 which fixes a couple of minor issues. At the bottom of this post is a summary of all 8.0.x updates. If you find a bug, please report it.

There are two game modes I'd like to add next: a building mode and an extension of the adventure mode.

The building mode is more of a typical mining game (which is what I had been avoiding initially) where you collect ore, cash it in, and buy upgrades. I'm hoping it'll add some open-endedness that'll keep people interested for longer. I have a decent amount of work done on this mode, but I'm working on it slowly so I can have more bugs in the existing modes fixed before I add a new mode - no sense fighting bugs on all fronts.

The adventure mode extension would be a completely separate thing from the current adventure mode. I'd like to add some more procs to my Sidescroller library to make AI development easier. By adding a new adventure with new types of enemies (and maybe some helpful NPCs) I'll have a reason to create the procs to manage enemy AI.
