'Foxfire Mine,' is a 2D roguelike mining adventure. Unearth valuable gems, manage resources, and navigate strategic upgrades for survival. Every descent challenges your tactics and adaptability in a dynamic underground world.

First of all: Thank you for playing the game! I appreciate feedback of any kind since this is my first solo project! This is still more of a prototype and I am eager to enhance and upgrade the game with your input. :)


Meet Reyna, your foxy guide in the mine. As a cunning adventurer with fox-like senses, you navigate her through a dynamic underground world, where every decision impacts your journey. (I know she is a block right now, don't worry!)

Game Instructions

You win the game by reaching the maximum depth of the mine and lose if your HP reach 0. Digging depletes your light and with no light left, your HP.

1. Character Movement:

Control your character using the arrow keys. Move up, down, left, or right to navigate through the mine.

2. Digging Mechanics:

To dig, press the 'M' button along with the corresponding arrow key. This ensures you only dig when intended. Digging is directional - choose your path carefully to uncover ores and navigate the mine. You can not dig upwards.

3. Ears Activation:

Activate your character's ears with the 'N' button. Hold down the button to keep the ears activated. The activation uses one light. This reveals tiles around you which might be outside of your sight range and sometimes you discover even more, than you eyes can show you.

4. Collecting Ores:

Dig into ore tiles to collect them. Gathered ores can be sold in shops for resources or upgrades.

5. Interacting with Shops:

Open a shop by digging into it. Once opened, a shop cannot be re-entered until you find another shop tile. Plan your shop visits strategically.

6. Stat Screen:

You can check your stats at every time by pressing the 'T' button. In this menu you can also always start a new run or reset the game.

7. Dealing with Blocker Tiles:

If trapped by blocker tiles, you can destroy them by pressing the 'B' button. Note that destroying tiles may damage your claws.

8. Depth Exploration:

The mine currently extends to a maximum depth of 500 tiles, but this could change in future updates.

9. Hidden Mechanics

Some Mechanics I left hidden on purpose for the players to discover and not spoil the fun. But please, if you ever think they need more clarification or hints, let me know! This is just experimental.
