Reviews for "Galactic Miner"

I finally got enough cheese...

To rebuild the moon....er....oh....um this seems to be the exact same game mechanically as the moon one. Even the upgrades and saving up money to buy the ship is the same. Only thing that has changed is the graphics, but only then it is purely superficial as you can identify which things are which in either game.

Still addictive but, next time make an actualy NEW game.

hmm

Seems like a nice game. I would have given it more points but the music gets a bit repetitive and the scrolling animation starts to hurt my eyes.

Boring game with bad controls

I found the controls annoying. Sure, there is a handling upgrade to make your ship be more responsive, but the main problem was that your ship moved at different speeds according to how far away it was from the cursor (faster when the cursor is far away, slower when it is nearby). So the best way to get to anything was to aim past it. However, because the cursor couldn't move off the screen, this meant movement would be very slow when trying to get to minerals just on the edge of the screen.

The game would probably benefit greatly from making the movement speed of the ship be constant.

Last, the weird descriptions on the medals were kind of annoying. If you don't want to write a description, don't write one. Don't write a description saying that you're too lazy to write a description. The style of humor didn't really mesh with the game.

Interesting Game

This Game reminded me of the mining games like miner and Motherload except without the challenge of it. Overall it was a fun game that I played until the end enjoyed the time I wasted playing this game. The sound and the graphics were apprpreate for the type of game.

However. There was no challenge to this game. No penalty for defeat. Just go, and go some more. Another minor thing I would have liked to see is after you earn your cruser at the end you should be able to play with it to collect the minerals that would of been great fun.

Overall nice effort, it was a quick enjoyable game but nothing that will be remembered in the flash hall of fame.

Wow, it is a LOT like Save the Moon

As Mano Cornuto linked a few posts earlier...! Not how it looks but in game play, certainly.

The game play is basic and as a time killer it's okay but I really think you need to look up the definition of mining. It's meant to include extraction of metals from the ground or at least digging, not just fetching minerals floating in space.

Oh well. Decent medals.
