About This Game

One magnet. A whole desert of scrap.

You were a freight courier until your ship came down on Red Mesa, a world of red sand. The old junk dealer who pulled you out has one piece of advice: "Need money to fix that ship? Dig it out of the sand."
Hang an electromagnet leased from Starline Lease & Co. over the dunes and pull up washers, nuts, bolts, gears, chains and heavy machine parts.

Just move the mouse

Bring the magnet over buried metal and it digs up everything in its field, dragging each piece in with a crackle of blue-white sparks. A full battery pulls fast; as it drains, the pull weakens. Where you dig before the power runs out is everything.

The bills won't wait

A lease bill arrives every two runs, and each one costs more than the last. Pay on time and choose one of three perk cards. Miss a deadline and you spend a grace, while the collectors take a cut of your sales. Run out of graces and the contract ends: start over in another dimension.

Build up your magnet

• A skill tree of 65 circuits: battery, pull radius, pieces dug at once, lifting weight and digging depth
  
• Six dig zones, with pricier metal in the deeper layers
  
• Four electromagnets with their own quirks, from the Fast Winding Unit and Wide Field Unit to the Heavy Crane
  
• Combos that widen your pull, and the rare gold-plated find

Records of a sunken colony

Under the sand lie the remains of Colony Zero, swallowed when the gate collapsed at 02:17. Each of the 16 relics carries its own record and engravings, and each gives your magnet a new power.

Gems from Beyond

When a contract ends, everything you pulled from the desert still counts. Spend that count to unlock 12 Gems from Beyond (the bodies of the solar system and two galaxies) and keep their power in the next dimension.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

The opening illustrations, the junk dealer's portraits and the achievement icons were made from still images created with generative AI, then converted into 32-color pixel art with our own tools. All in-game 3D models, materials, sound effects and music are generated procedurally in code without AI. The game does not generate any content with AI while running.
