Another way to help clear out tiny little missed slivers that would be easier for the devs to implement is hold a key down and it makes all the forground glow some obnoxious bright colour so it really stands out from the background- some kinda thermal vision mode- that wouldmake the tiny slivers you missed way easier to see.
"My terrible, terrible ISP, Comcast" - I feel your pain. I swear, Comcast does everything in its power to be the most incompetent at everything it does -- sales, customer service, support, service centers, technicians, website, the actual services they provide, everything.
The mining mechanic is satisfying to an almost hypnotic level. The tower defence works too even if a bit bare bone. The game has definitely found its path and it just needs to progress further on it.
It seems really fun, but only to 2 or 3 runs. Then I feel the mining and waiting (30 min for the first action) would feel kinda boring... Maybe a little roguelike aspect might be necessary to speed up future gameplay?
@@7sete777 but more active than the lot of new games. They are too afk for my taste. I hate those idle games as well, because they are just automatic programs with almost no input from humans.
@@Wolfsheim23 A few vids ago he said something along the lines of "if you don't want to watch the whole video, hopefully some kind soul will bookmark my thoughts, concerns, and condensed review of the game that I do towards the end of the video" that's what I'm doing.
Best thing to do is always get the drill workshop first and upgrade your drill, the mining speed increase is insane and will save tons of time. Also I didn't finish the video so I don't know if he figures it out but turrets can shoot over walls no problem, the raised platform is just so that your character can.
I really hope they take into consideration the Blueprint idea , being able to layout where you want the buildings beforehand helps players know where to drill and how far they should drill. It also makes it more efficient gameplay wise since you're racing against time and you'll be able to effectively make use of your time more. Great game though! Totally buying this game when it officially launches the full version.
@@PoggerChamp-jt8dp i mean 11 bucks non sale still a good price but im gonna sit on it till another game is out and ill be seeing if i cant get one or hopefully both. (this game btw is godlike burger crazy game with a lot of fun madness)
I am not much for games similar to this. But watching it i could feel my dopamine response tingle a bit, the sound fx and just from watching i could see the push back physics while you mined. Im definitely putting this on my list
If only crystal and ore glowed in real life it would sure make caving a more ambient and exciting hobby. I'm not surprised people gave crystals psychosomatic powers. They look too cool to not have some kind of hidden potential humans haven't yet discovered.
The game feels a bit solitary, like those arcade coin games where you mindless shoot shoot shoot. I think it would and should benefit from having people moving in with you - fighting along side as you build a subterrain town, maybe city.... great vid!
It won't win any innovation awards, but I saw the price tag and I was getting ready to buy it since I found the aesthetics and mining appealing. But then the wave timer popped up and I was turned off immediately. This is a game where I'd want to get lost in fiddling with the act of mining, the layout and minutia that comes with it. A super hectic egg timer will basically deny me the one thing I'd find satisfying. If the waves were somewhat selectively triggered, like for example upon expanding, I'd be down.
Not sure if you're a regular viewer but Splat regularly makes videos on mining games (if you search for "mining" on his channel you'll get hundreds of results). You can probably find some interesting ones that don't have combat.
@@Gigusx I don't mind combat. However, I find that from a design perspective, the aggressive egg timer and the main gameplay in this particular title is a bit of a mismatch. Naturally, they do want tension and some sort of a fail-state, but I feel that the current solution is a bit cheap. I'd rather see some kind of underground 4x solution, with some sort of rudimentary diplomacy and multiple factions maybe, just to throw out some ideas. It would make an otherwise appealing game a lot more interesting and more appropriately paced. I urge you not to attempt to reduce the validity of any critique you see to the idea that the critic should simply find another game.
I imagine the conversation over what the name should be went something like.. lumen? How will people be interested? We need something that.. pops. Mine lumen? Nah sounds like a German saying.. lumen craft? Sure that sounds like money
Funny thought, a mod called Doomencraft where you play a little Doom Marine against hordes of demons but instead of mining you just punch the walls with your bare fists. And instead of building up turrets and weapons you just launch yourself at the enemies in fits of blind rage or grab one to use it to beat the others flat with. >:D
The slivers aren't great, fair enough. It's the one teensy tiny single pixel that gets me. I'm loving the game though, nice mix of tower defence and building. Now we just need more turret types...
It's not an especially new game, but I just discovered it. You might want to feature it. It's a survival MMO of Don't Starve style, except your character lives for only one IRL hour until you have to change characters (also there's no supernatural stuff). It's called _One Hour One Life._
Believe it or not, there are actually systems in place to make sure the player doesn't collide with pixel sized bits of debris [player collision causes it to despawn] Perhaps they just need to up what their system considers "small enough to be a pain"
Their dev is active in a thread I'm in on Facebook where they go through the systems and you see the mesh. I'm not affiliated at all, just saw the info. Just FYI:)
Mining such a wide area without bracing the roof, could add more interest if you had to brace the roof. Seems a decent game, wait a minute... you know 1915 mining songs? How old are you exactly?
13:00 - 13:04 ...does collecting those resources open up a hole for enemies to come through? (like, do the resources act like walls or can enemies just walk over/through them)?
God your narrative gameplay is so incredible. I watched you play a bit of Keplerth and saw you also played this game (which I would have recommmended if you didn't already try) and am glad to see your high quality game review/playthrough
The puns... The puns! Great game btw. My OCD/ADHD loves this type of time-wasting stuff. Why be productive, when you can *pretend* to be productive? At a fraction of the effort, no less lol
Huh, 10 USD on steam for this game, there is a bundle with Riftbreaker for 8 USD ... I already have Riftbreaker but save 2 USD for this game, which is unexpectedly cheap.
@@GameTimeWhy I know. There were even a few occasions when games just vanished from Steam. Even if you paid for it! So DRM-free games would be more secure (if you download them and store by yourself). GOG let's you do that ;-)
Que gol contra bizarro, tipo, tem uns acidentais e tal, beleza, mas esse contra foi tão falho que pareceu um gol de ataque mesmo, falha grotesca. Mas enfim, não sou corinthiano mas venceu quem atacou mais, me pareceu justo o resultado.
Splat: "Our metal inventory is looking kinda anemic"
Me: "The main cause of anemia is lack of iron..." Heh.
so you watch the brain emu too
i too am a fellow gay

realistically, those little slivers would be reaching up to the ceiling. They shouldnt just crumble, but they'd stand out like a sore thumb.

This looks like a lot of fun. Tower defense, sim management, mining. I’ll probably be checking this one out.
also only 11 bucks for now and thats hard to beet.

Splat's Condensed Review of the game: Starts at 32:33 (And then again, at 33:09)
He doesn't make reviews, he just shows off indie games as he plays them. Really simple and ingenious.

Crystals do have a lot of hidden potential :) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monocrystalline_silicon
crystals are fcking mad
If only we could see through walls so we could see when they glowed.
Why mining games are so attractive? So satisfying !!!
According to the roadmap the game will be on full release on the second half of 2022.
I will be getting this for sure, it looks like it does everything really well and super fun. Thanks for updating us on it Splatty
This game satisfies my inner Dwarf.
looks like that Starcraft mod. MineralZ... ILOVED THAT MOD!
The game feels a bit solitary, like those arcade coin games where you mindless shoot shoot shoot. I think it would and should benefit from having people moving in with you - fighting along side as you build a subterrain town, maybe city.... great vid!

i love the way the debris collects on the floor.
And Splat sells me YET ANOTHER game...😆
"maybe I should have upgraded the drill first" - proceeds to delay every drill upgrade until after mining for minutes x)
"Ammo. Put it in your weapon." Thanks game. I had no idea....
I imagine the conversation over what the name should be went something like.. lumen? How will people be interested? We need something that.. pops. Mine lumen? Nah sounds like a German saying.. lumen craft? Sure that sounds like money
I am german and i approve this comment :)
I hope u do a series of this game. I watch it. Ur fun to watch and hear ur commentary about this game and the others
looks great the base reminded me of Subterrain(sequel should be coming soon)
i was looking forward to this game. glad to see its out.
So basically from your discription its starcraft from the prospective of a single soldier
Splatty has recently taken liking to the phrase "push and pull", at least one reference every 1-2 videos!
Game looks like a lot of fun. Decided to pick it up, whilst watching your vid. Cheers
I feel like they have made a lot of good upgrades from the demo. I am excited about the full release
The game is getting progressively fun,and you haven't seen all enemies and specialy the huge monsters !
Thanks for the review Splat, game looks good, I was just wondering if you wouldn't mind reviewing new farming games available on steam
The video title reminded me of the 2 old xenominer games on the 360 indie market.
this game looks awesome I was looking at it yesterday.. can't wait to check it out

Centimetre or so ... Ty Splat :D

I was just thinking of this game the other day.
I think this would be a lovely game to play with my partner :D
added to wishlist. Looks awesome.
Talking about OCD: I think the spinning trifoil thing at the center of the generator isn't spaced out 120° evenly :O .
Hmm, reminds me of Rift Breaker mixed with Infested Planet. Cool
Lumencraft looks neat, I would like to see the map limits
Contact us now⤴️,if you haven’t gotten your meta ID
This game looks fun.
Great to see you feature a game made in the Godot engine. This is what we've been waiting for! (sorry not sorry)
This game looks sick. I'll keep an eye on the updates.
I could get behind this.
Aaah splat, you found another gem for my ocd, thanks.
By the way the plural is lumină
Please do a series on this, it's awesome?
I love when you sing
Can’t wait for the stream of this!
Found putting a storage yard right next to the mine where the ore lands picks up the ore automatically.
25:10 I would assume lumen is uncountable, like water.
You have awesome voice for singing country songs. Cherish it.
yes,ive been waiting for this game dude!!

the one thing this game can now use is a hole filler tool. just spray some cret into a hole and be done
This reminds me of Notrium ... which is a good thing.
I dig it.
@13:37 the minimap looks like Australia
The puns...
The puns!
Great game btw. My OCD/ADHD loves this type of time-wasting stuff. Why be productive, when you can *pretend* to be productive? At a fraction of the effort, no less lol

This game looks great. Would be great if they could add online multiplayer.

OMG thy really added multiplayer? is it full co-op or just split screen?
steam store says "shared/split screen co-op" and "remote play together"

Oh 😐 Thx!
you can use steams remote play together for online coop
