Place your rig.
Dig down and connect pipes to get minerals and make $.
Pipes cost more the deeper you go.
Upgrade to refineries to make even more $.
Have fun!

What I didn't understand is how to optimize the pipes. It seems pretty random for me how much a new field increases the $/second. Sometimes it even decreases.
The instructions should make this clearer to make the game more fun.
But yeah, it felt a bit odd that pipe construction is completely unrestricted like that. I guess it'd be better to be more selective in what to mine despite increased costs, but "my" way seemed effective enough really
Anyway, tried it again playing a bit more "properly" this time, and that felt a bit less pointless =)
Also, it locked up Firefox (linux). Works great in Chromium though.
Apparently my Firefox locks up on all kinds of pages now and not just your game, so never mind that =]
Much different from all the other entries so far.
- Please add a loading screen to your engine. It took a while to load, meanwhile showing a black screen
- The complete lack of audio is somewhat strange
- Other than that, nothing to complain! Good job!
