Release date: 06/11/2025Low wage. Exhaustion. Expensive fish and chips. Welcome to the United Kingdom.
DIGGERGUN is an oppressive life sim platformer about workers, minimum pay and the environment. You’re trapped on a blustery island, forced to work at Cornwall Mining Corp where it’s shadier than the game’s monochrome palette.
To escape, you need to earn £3000 from digging precious lithium. To survive, you need to manage your time, energy and money during the rigid day-and-night cycle.
Will you make ends meet while digging for freedom or find another way out and bring down the whole bloomin’ system?
Features:
- An atmospheric world with fleshed-out characters; everyone you meet has their own distinct personality and storyline.
- Multiple endings: who you interact with (or don’t) will change the outcome of your story.
- Unique energy system where your actions truly matter as the game tracks your gameplay and punishes/rewards you for your choices.
- Life sim where wages, food, rent, and much more are based on the current cost-of-living in the United Kingdom. There's even a tax system calculated to real-world rates!
- Diverse range of randomly generated mines and intricately hand-designed levels to ensure you’re always kept on your toes.
