This is Ship Miner, a twin stick 1-bit PixelArt mining game I am developing mainly for Steam and Steam Deck (for now). It is a retro modern game, a tribute to the games I played as kid and what I imagined while playing. Add it to your Steam Wishlist if you like it.
It's finally Time! The Cleared Hot Public demo is dropping tomorrow, June 6th, and will be featured in Steam Next Fest next Monday! The team has been working non-stop to get this done. We can't wait for you to play it! 🔥
What should we name the Steam achievement for destroying a vehicle in mid-air? 😅 We prototyped this one awhile back and we're doing another pass on it now. Creates a lot of dynamic action, I like it.
I thoroughly enjoyed their reactions :D Thanks Mikeburnfire for playing our demo 🔥 youtube.com/watch?v=Xz5KaW…
New gatling turrets are sounding great 🔥 Team has been working to make these enemies satisfying to take down. What do you want to more of from Cleared Hot? #featurefriday

This is Ship Miner 🚀, a twin stick retro 1-bit pixel art mining game. Multiple people requested color palettes and I decided to experiment, here is a video. One Discord member said: "how the heck this game is able to look good in every color?" 🫶 Add to your Steam Wishlist!

These 8 indie devs have spent 4 years making this nostalgic helicopter shooter Inspired by Desert Strike and Return Fire🔥
We've had a ton of really great coverage from content creators this week! Starting off with @LevelCapGaming who was the first to release. Thank LevelCap for the awesome video and feedback over the last year! youtube.com/watch?v=MydyTE…
In Ship Miner there are some Space Stations around asteroids where you can build drones to help with the task of mining and more. This also helps making exploration more rewarding I think.

It is a bit surreal to watch people play the game we’ve worked on for so long! I’m really enjoying it. A few of us were in the twitch comments while @MazTechGaming played and it was pretty cool.
To the devs that showed up to today's Indie Game Showcase live recording, THANK YOU! Not only was it badass that you were there watching the game play, but y'all went above and beyond by identifying yourselves, and being gracious enough to answer some questions! <3 I had an…
