Description
Take care of the family company
Sacrifices are not always the ones we expect.
What should you sacrifice? Gold? Your Uncle’s respect? Your workers well being? The choice is yours!
GOAL Maximize your final score!
Genre: Strategy
Controls: Mouse Only
Setting : Uncle John has a mining company. It’s still at the start of the business, but everything seems to be going well. He has three happy employees and has $30 in reserves. After one year of hard work, that means he is looking forward to go on a holiday. Because he has trust in you and seeks a potential successor in the family, he would like you to keep an eye on the business while he is on a trip to the nicest beaches in Jamaica. During this period of two weeks, he has given you all the rights to do anything you can to keep the company running.
How to Play
Shop:
Pickaxe - Improves working speed. Equipping your workers with the proper tools is extremely important for their efficiency and self-esteem.
Helmet - Mandatory protection equipment for diggers.
Coffee - Improves working efficiency, but your workers will start taking breaks when they feel like it.
Stimpack - Dramatically improves working efficiency. Drugs are bad.
Workers :
Red Worker - Costs 2 coins at the end of the day, 4 when you hire him. Severely underpaying people is very bad.
Orange Worker - Costs 5 coins at the end of the day, 10 when you hire him. Underpaying people is bad.
Blue Worker - Costs 10 coins at the end of the day, 20 when you hire him.
Green Worker - Costs 20 coins at the end of the day, 40 when you hire him.
I will implement a leaderboard in a post-jam version, but in the meantime you can post your score in the comments if you want to share it.

The game seems to be nice, but I have a hard time reading the text (numbers) which makes it a bit too hard to play for me. :) (I know: buy glasses...)

Agreed! The problem is already fixed in the current version. I can't publish it right now because we are adding much more to the end screen (online leaderboard, specific dialogs based on your choices and results, and more). We should be able to make this big update in approximately a month. Thanks for playing and for your comment :)

I like it and would love to see how it changes with some additional work. Managed a score of 371 on my second run-through. I think there are interesting opportunities around things like protection (small chance of injury or death during gameplay). Might be nice for there to be an extension to the game - if you hit a certain score or cash level, your uncle asks you to run the company for a longer timeframe.
Thanks for playing! I totally agree with your ideas. Our initial plan for the helmet was to protect against injuries, we just had to cut that feature due to the limited time frame. Extending the game by making a campain is also an option indeed!

This game is my team's LD43 entry. We made it in 72h. If you like it, we'll improve it!
By the way, the score to beat is currently 6000. You're doing good if you are over 3000.
