There Will Only Ever Be
3,333 Retro Miners.

Each miner is procedurally generated from 40+ hand-crafted 16-bit traits: hoods, armor, pickaxes, lanterns, potions, and more. No two miners are the same.

This is the first chapter of a dungeon-crawling, ore-forging world, built for people who love games.

The Descent

Five Layers of Deepvein

The deeper you go, the richer the rewards. But the mines remember who enters. They don't always let you leave.

LAYER 1 · 100M

The Shallows

Crumbling wooden supports, iron ore, copper veins. The faint glow of surface light leaks through cracks above.

LAYER 2 · 400M

The Hollows

Cathedral-sized caverns open onto ancient Pickborn ruins, gold veins lining the walls. Something moves in the dark.

LAYER 3 · 900M

The Ember Depths

Lava rivers cut through the rock. The old forges still burn with OreLight. Only forged gear survives the heat.

LAYER 4 · 1,600M

The Crystal Tombs

Massive crystal formations. The Pickborn buried their greatest treasures here, among crystals that sing in maddening frequencies.

LAYER 5 · ???

The Core

Nothing below has been mapped. The OreLight moves on its own, and the heart of Deepvein beats somewhere in the dark, waiting.
