Gameplay
In the game, players work cooperatively to extract ores and deliver them to a boat.

Mining
Players can either use the pickaxe they spawn with or a vehicle with digging capability in order to mine a block. Once a block is mined, it becomes unanchored and is able to be picked up using their pick up tool (you can only hold one block at a time). Players also have a floodlight tool they can place down anywhere to provide light. Clusters are also rare occurrences which contain a large amount of a particular ore. If there is too much uncollected ore in the mine, mining is temporarily disabled.

Retrieval
Vehicles that are haulers can be loaded with ores and driven back to the foundry, which is much faster than holding individual ores and walking by foot. Smaller vehicles will struggle to climb steep inclines, so they should stay closer to the surface to avoid getting stuck. You can press 'v' to teleport to your truck in some cases.

Processing
Once a vehicle drops ores at the foundry, the raw ore is turned into ingots which run along a conveyor. They get packaged into wooden crates. These crates must be delivered to the boat via a tunnel. As soon as the boat hits 100% capacity, all players earn money equivalent to the total value of ores on the boat. At this point, the mine resets and all vehicles despawn. All players respawn and the boat starts at 0% capacity again.

Vehicles
TO = Top Speed, AC = Acceleration, TU = Turn Speed (for compacting purposes)

Vehicles can be upgraded to improve their hauling capacity, top speed, acceleration and turn speed.
