Y.O.L.O Explorer

Made in 48 hours for #1GAMCRUNCH and #1GAM. Y.O.L.O Explorer (Yet Other Landing Object) is a game similar to Motherload, you dig for resources in order to get better upgrades. My game is a bit simpler, your main goal is to gather all of the artifacts (glowing balls) and in the process also gather minerals which can be used to upgrade your ship. Instructions: – Use mouse to fire laser, you will be propelled to the opposite direction. – Chunks of rock are destroyed by the laser too. But in order to get deeper you will require an upgrade to laser system. – Before being able to gather artifacts you must destroy their outer crust (blue lines), that can be done with the same method as always (guess how?). – When you gather an artifact you will be presented with the upgrade menu, the upgrades cost minerals. – Notice the fuel bar? Yea, there is fuel. Re-fuel your ship by going to the surface and going inside the nuclear fuel sign (costs M$ 1). – Win by gathering all artifacts. There is unfortunately no real win screen, the game will simply pause at the last upgrade menu.
