Pixel Miner

Pixel Miner is an incremental mining game with a minimalistic pixel theme. You descend through randomly generated caves and tunnels, break blocks to collect ore, and bring it back to your base to buy upgrades. The game balances manual exploration and mining with automation and progression systems.

Mine and automate

Caverns are filled with valuable ore. Your inventory uses a falling sand simulation, and you deposit what you collect at the furnace in your base to earn credits. You can also deploy autonomous drones to prospect, excavate and mine ore and treasures deep underground, expanding your operation and improving its yields as you dig.

Upgrade your operation

Spend credits across multiple upgrade systems to improve your speed, damage, inventory capacity and information gathering, as well as your explosives and automated drones. Further upgrades let you expand the explorable world, destroy thousands of blocks at once with explosives, teleport instantly and deploy swarms of drones as your power grows.

Prestige

Collect rare Ancient Ore and reset your progress to unlock permanent upgrades, new technology tiers and increasingly powerful systems. Steam achievements also offer challenges to tackle once you have grown powerful enough.
