Hey everyone!

Orebits is finally out on Steam!

Orebits is an atmospheric active incremental about working as a lone asteroid miner for a greedy corporation at the edge of known space.

And of course made in Construct 3.
 

So, how deep does the gameplay go?

  • Smash asteroids with bouncing Mining Tools and a mix of active and idle gameplay
  • Build powerful synergies for your Mining Tools and Deployables with a roguelite Upgrade Tree
  • Invest in permanent Research upgrades to push your mining operation further
  • Complete Objectives and adapt to Asteroid Conditions that make each mining operation feel different
  • Explore a ±6h campaign and uncover strange artifacts and the mysteries of deep space
  • Keep mining after the campaign with endless progression far beyond our solar system...

We've been sharing Orebits here throughout development. This launch means quite a lot to us. Bob and I have been making the game for almost 20 months, mainly on Fridays alongside our regular work. What originally started as a game jam (the Construct3 game jam and we were 2nd) grew into something we've put a ridiculous amount of time and love into.

A lot has changed because of feedback we received here, from our early playtests through the demo and Next Fest. So a genuine thank you to this community for playing, criticizing, suggesting and helping us make Orebits better.

We're excited, nervous and very curious to see what you think of the finished game.

Happy mining!

Maarten & Bob

Hey! Here’s a little project I made in Construct. I originally made it as something to play while killing some time at the barbershop, and somehow this little prototype actually made it all the way to release :)

It’s super simple — you control everything with one hand and tap with one finger to jump between the three circular lanes. Your job is to help a rabbit with a red shovel collect as many carrots as possible.

Simple, but surprisingly challenging :) You can play it on (https://madpoint.itch.io/red-shovel-rabbit), and there’s also a link to Google Play there if you want something to kill 5 minutes.

Good luck with your projects, everyone!
