I HATE THAT IN ORDER TO TRY NEW TURRET I HAVE TO START COMPLETELY OVER. I SHOULD BE ABLE TO JUST BUY AND SWAP. PLEASE CHANGE THIS. I dont wanna restart as Ive dug out the entire map and not just tunnels.

Really fun game, has a good core gameplay loop. I appreciate the devs not putting the game in Early Access for several years like most people do today, I'm OK with minor issues on launch being fixed within a day of the game coming out. Games get most of their momentum the week that they release, it's better to support the devs if you see a great product that is 80-90% of the way there than to put them down over minor issues (that have already been fixed). This is my first review on steam just to try to help them a little, I'm thoroughly enjoying the game.

Very addictive. 10 hours in and ive evolved into a cave dwelling goblin. Pretty sure im close to the ending unless the game has already ended and im just refusing to leave. Won over 2500$ on the slot machine? Nice. Now quickly pick up all those 1$ bills before your PC blows up.

what an absolute gem of a game. It is exactly what it says it is. You dig, shoot zombies and repeat. What i was not prepared for is the sound experience with mines, bombs etc going off. How well the storms are betrayed and the fun of digging. Wish it was longer though, i could have finished it in 3-4 hours with my playstyle. Ended up digging around trying to find other hidden secrets for an additional 4 hours. Grand recipe for a game. Hope to see more from this developer. Multiplayer would make this even better
