A Steady Loop of Digging and Upgrading
Diggy centers on a satisfying dig-and-upgrade loop wrapped in a treasure-hunting theme. Each dive sends you drilling straight downward through layers of dirt and rock, collecting gold and rare artifacts until your fuel runs dry and forces you back to the surface. Back at base, you spend your haul on upgrades to drill power, fuel capacity, and radar range, then dive again to push a little deeper than before. The appeal is steady, visible progress — every run gets you further, and every upgrade makes the next dive smoother.
Controls: Drill and Manage Fuel
Use the arrow keys or WASD to steer your drill left, right, and downward through the terrain, avoiding obstacles like solid rock or hazards that drain fuel faster. Keep an eye on your fuel gauge at all times, since running out mid-dive strands you and cuts the run short. Collecting gold along the way funds upgrades back at the surface between dives.
- Upgrade fuel capacity early so you can reach deeper, more valuable layers sooner.
- Turn back toward the surface once your fuel gauge gets low rather than gambling on one more pocket of gold.
- Prioritize radar upgrades once you're diving deep enough that valuable artifacts become easy to miss.
- Dig efficiently in straight paths when possible — wasted turns burn fuel without adding progress.
- Balance drill power upgrades with fuel capacity rather than maxing one before touching the other.
