Diggergun absolutely caught me off guard. It starts as a compact action-platformer and slowly transforms into a layered survival story wrapped in satire, exploration, careful resource management, and stressful-but-satisfying time pressure. It captures the feeling of just barely scraping by, and turns it into a compelling loop that kept pulling me back for just one more workday. There’s genuine variety thanks to the different endings and branching story routes, and the randomisation in the mines keeps the daily grind from ever feeling too routine. It’s a small game with a surprisingly large amount to say, and I walked away far more impressed than I expected to be. If you’re after something unusual, tense, and full of personality, Diggergun is a standout little surprise. I highly recommend giving it a go, especially if you’re ready to dig your way out of trouble, one block at a time.
