In addition to the upcoming release of Sandbox, we’re planning to add another game mode to the game. It will be called Ladder.
In Ladder, the game takes place only in the mine, and the player’s main task is to fill all the carriages that arrive one after another at the warehouses. In other words, there will be a fixed queue of carriages carrying the resources they need, and they must be served strictly one at a time.
You cannot build warehouses in this mode - there will be a set number of them for each level. Moreover, in most cases there will be fewer warehouses than there are types of resources in the mine. This means you’ll need to switch between stored resources skillfully.
In total, we plan to create 24 levels. On the first level, there will be only one resource type in the mine, and on each subsequent level, one new resource will be added. The levels will differ not only in appearance but also in the rules for generating resources and obstacles.
In other words, the main objective will be to serve the carriages in the queue as efficiently and quickly as possible. We plan to add statistics showing how long it took to complete each level of the Ladder, and over time, we’ll likely add a leaderboard.
