I made this game for the quiet minutes. A tiny miner walks, digs, and hauls ore while you watch, and he keeps working after you close the app. You start on the Pebble Path with a stone pick and a small bag. Sell what he digs, buy him better gear, and open the way down. There are eighteen zones, and the last few take real patience to reach. Along the way you'll spot gems on the path, chase mining goals for every ore, and maybe, eventually, run out of mine. I'm digging more. Things I care about, so they're built in: • He mines while you're away, with a cap, so it stays a game and not a chore. • No ads. Ever. • No account, no sign-up. I only collect what I need to make the game fun and engaging. Data is anonymous and never sold. Your save lives on your phone. • Everything in the game can be earned by playing. The few purchases are shortcuts and tips, not walls. This is my first game. I built it alone: the pixel art, the cave sounds, the ore prices I argued with myself about for weeks. If something feels broken or unfair, tell me through the support page and I'll fix it. Thanks for giving the tiny miner a look.

You are a black hole. You start on a desk, and you are smaller than a crumb. Swallow anything lighter than you. Every bite makes you heavier, and heavier means the next thing up the ladder finally fits: the crumb, the paperclip, the coffee mug, the desk, the street, the city, the planet, the star, the galaxy. Nothing on screen is decoration - if it has a mass, you can eventually eat it. Anything too heavy tells you exactly how much too heavy. That refusal is the game: come back when you outweigh it. WHAT YOU DO - Drift into things. Bigger things need a bigger you. - Buy producers - companion holes, accretion disks, relativistic jets - that keep feeding while the app is closed. - Come back to a settlement of everything they swallowed while you were away. - Take on Trials: named opponents that push back, and only give in to a real effort. - Collect. Every object you have ever swallowed is named and kept in the codex - the collection, not the number, is what you are playing for. YOUR CHOICES - Optional rewarded videos offer extra in-game rewards. - The Supporter Pack includes a black hole skin, halo, and leaderboard badge. - Core gameplay works offline; ads and store purchases require a connection. An idle game where the fantasy is scale: the same hole that could not manage a breadcrumb on Tuesday is a problem for a galaxy by the weekend.
