Update EA 1.1

Hello!

I will first start with some personal insights. I'm sorry I left this project out for a very long time. I recently fully returned to making games after finishing university and working a full time job. In the past years I had little time for personal projects and not a lot of programing knowledge either. From now on I want to change that.

This week I released some updates for MDR through which I want to make it playable and fun. I'm also looking for feedback and ideas from the community to improve the game.

Available in this update:

Mobs

- Added 3 mobs. They spawn in different stages of drilling - first levels of dirt, underwater, caves.
- Each mob drops a specific key that you can use later on to open treasures.

Story

- Compared to classic MineDrill, this game has a story which you will have to find out on your own.

Items and crafting

- More than 30 items used for crafting upgrades, mods, rocket parts. More will be added in the future updates.
- 10 ores to drill.

Mods

- The drill has 4 base components which can be upgraded and 3 more mods.
- The most important mod is the Laser Gun without which you can't defend yourself.

Powerups

- 4 powerups that help movement, drilling and lighting dark zones.

Upcoming next weeks:

- Full controller support. Currently is partial.
- More sounds.
- Steam achievements.
- Missions an XP system for unlocking things.

More things will be added depending on feedback after the necessary fixings.
