Deepdig Co.

Dig deep, haul your ore back up to sell, upgrade your pod, and keep clawing downward before the shaft floods and crushes you.

How to play

You pilot a mining pod down a shaft of dirt, ore and minerals. Dig in the direction you thrust to gather cargo, then return to the surface to open the shop — sell your ore, refuel, repair and buy upgrades. The shaft floods and collapses from the top down over time, so you must keep pushing deeper to stay ahead of the rising line. Mind your fuel, hull, gas pockets and lava.

• Dig in the pressed direction to collect ore and minerals
• Return to the surface shop to sell, refuel, repair and upgrade
• The shaft floods and collapses from the top — keep heading down
• Watch fuel, hull integrity, gas pockets and lava

Game modes

• Daily — a shared seeded shaft everyone digs that day
• Endless runs to push for depth and earnings

Controls

• Desktop: Arrow keys or WASD to thrust and dig in that direction
• Phone & tablet: keyboard recommended for precise digging

Tips & strategy

• Upgrade your fuel tank early so you can reach deeper ore before turning back
• Don't backtrack — lingering lets the collapsing line catch you
• Cash in the high-value minerals first, then reinvest in hull and drill upgrades

Origins

Deep Dig Co. revisits the mining sandbox of the mid-2000s web — pilot a digging pod underground to harvest minerals, then fly back to sell them and upgrade your fuel, hull, drill and cargo, going ever deeper. A moreish loop of risk and reward.
