The fire emoji in the title give a great first impression
Since it is a roast thread, I won’t hold back.
-Another mining game of which there are already thousands on roblox, it might be just me but I absolutely loathe these types of games. The only mining game I ever actually enjoyed playing on roblox was the classic Underground War by Stickmasterluke and that is because in that game mining isn’t the entire point of it but to add complexity to an otherwise dull game.
-The space theme is just a gimmick and there is no point in actually exploring or visiting different mining sites. The gravity is a cool mechanic and all but it is completly lost on this type of game and having to fly to the mining sites isn’t very fun or engaging but just a waste of time.
-Digging in the dirt is not fun, there are no sound effects for the pickaxe and you reach the bottom of the digging site after half a minute of digging.
-Getting the ore back to the base is an exercise in frustration as you have to navigate through a tiny tunnel with a jetpack where you end up not knowing where up and down are.
This gets 10 times worse when an earthquake starts and I ended up flying 30 seconds in circles before the earthquake killed me as the violent camera shaking killed off the last bit of my sense of orientation I had.
-Thanks to the earthquake I found out it is just easier and faster to just reset your character everytime your backpack is full because you don’t lose anything.
-Just add a sell-all-ore button since there is no point in keeping any on you
This is not how you pickaxe:
-Building essentially only exists so you have something to spend your money on, you can probably build some neat stuff with the gravity mechanic but as far as I can tell the amount of customization you can do is limited.
After I ran out of money I got bored and just left.

There are two mining games on the front page right now. It’s just you.

I love the gui design, but they take up far too much of the screen whist in game.
Try scaling them down a bit - the UI will feel much less cluttered.
this is what peak intelligence looks like

You weren’t kidding when you said there’s lots of cool tech in there. Alas this is a roast thread, so I shall partake.

I really wish that when you held down your right mouse button to rotate the camera, the cursor would stop moving. I keep accidentally moving my cursor out of frame when I’m trying to rotate my camera, and it’s annoying.

Could’ve at least made a custom neat jetpack instead of using the standard ugly one.
How quickly can you make this stuff?!?!

It was okay I guess, pretty boring though, not much to do other than just sit there and grind. The music really does not fit, I mean how hard is it to search “space soundtrack no copyright sounds” or something of the sort on google and at least TRY to make it fit?
Good news for me though, you’re giving me pointers on what I shouldn’t do when I make my space mining game. Luckily mine won’t be as lack-lustre and unpolished, I hope… only time will tell.
Anyways, at least you tried, so A for effort, and F for actual gameplay value and overall worth.
EDIT: Oh and, putting “tycoon” in the name probably isn’t going to help your publicity. At all.
Case and point: Superhero tycoon, car tycoon, youtuber tycoon, apple store tycoon, miner’s tycoon, soccer tycoon, castle tycoon, gear tycoon, among others.

It was going awesome until I realised you couldn’t adventure and explore whilst mining the planet but were instead restricted to allocated sandboxes. Why have all this cool physics without the cool gameplay? Let them be free to mine what and who they want!
I originally wanted to but it would be impossible on roblox to have infinite mines on planets.
Ah okay. Didn’t realise you wanted unlimited depth mines.
i am wheezing at this
