Mining Company

In Mining Company, you take a new spaceship to nearby asteroids and mine through caves for gems to sell. The earnings help pay for the ship and fund further expeditions, making the crew’s business depend on bringing valuable minerals back from the mines.

Each asteroid expedition involves balancing the value of mined gems against the dangers of the mines and the need to return to the ship. The day passes quickly, and the crew must also keep monsters from sneaking aboard before taking off.

Gameplay and features

• Mine and sell gems: Travel to nearby asteroids, work through their caves to collect gems, and sell what you find. The minerals market changes every second, so gem prices can affect the value of a sale and the outcome of an expedition.
• Choose upgrades and destinations: Use earnings to travel to new asteroids with higher risks and rewards, or buy improvements for tools and the spaceship. Available goods include torch packs, pickaxe upgrades, fuel expansion tanks, and exosuit movement and stamina upgrades.
• Coordinate a crew’s return: Asteroids contain monsters and robots, with some enemies appearing at night. Coordinate mining and survival with friends using proximity voice chat and walkie-talkies, then get back to the ship with fuel ready for takeoff.
