    Universal support? Also is 4.99 the set app price or just a launch price?

    not yet, no, but there is room for it. We're just trying to prioritize. I think the first big thing we want to add is the coop multiplayer, that would be tons of fun.

    The bin under the numbers contain the raw ore and gems. The numbers indicate the refined material. After you smelt and cut you'll see your ingots!

    LOVE reading all the posts here guys! Good tips and tricks and everything in-between!

    go play Epoch 2 or even 2K drive on and 4S and come back and say the same (on a 5 and up of course there is, or for example the bards tale in the iphone 4 there is not retina support because of the hardware but it is on the 4S), i'm asking that because of performance issues and some devs just take the retina support to have a better performance

    I notice that it appears this game is more storyline focused then other mining games. Does it feature a full story arc with and ending and what not or is it never ending with more of a survival, roguelike feel to it? I imagine that if it is the latter then story elements are vague and each players character sort of has their own story to tell by the time the dangers of mars get the best of them.

    Throw in a minigun to craft, and I'll have tons of fun blasting dirt and alien alike.

    I didn't even know about this game until it was listed on TA's recent "upcoming games" bulletin. I might grab this after Block Fortress: War.

    I really like the tips and tricks (especially the anti-gravity boots/saving fuel trick, that deserves a cookie). I'm a full-time student with a midterm coming up this week :( but Spring Break starts this weekend so I'll have time to play this, BFW and another game or two then.

    After reading the 5 pages, post by post, this is an instabuy. @EchoSeven: Thanks for all the info, very welcome. Can you edit the post in the first page which says "plenty of bugs" (or something like that) and add "most fixed in release version"? I nearly stopped reading there because I thought "full of bugs? Nah, not another...". Luckily though, I kept on reading and got to JoshCM's post clearing out all the bugs that had been ironed out. In any case, I really appreciate your posts talking about games and giving info, they help a lot choosing what to buy and what not, as well as Sanuku's videos. Thanks to both for your job informing us ;) In the end, this is my instabuy of the week. Now to watch Sanuku's 30-min video :D

    I got the "plenty of bugs" joke the moment I read the second line. But yeah, it was one of those, "I see what you did, there!" lol.

    Game looks interesting, I love me some of this kind of stuff. That is, the mining / motherload-ish sort of stuff :)

    you can offer your gems for the chance of winning something good. I would wait until you have lots of gems before risking it :)

    This sounds right up my street! Is it compatible on iPhone 4?

    Please say yes! ^_^

    Finally it is release night! I can't tell you how long I have waited for this game. I was really big into Terraria and then an update removed all of my hard work. So instead of playing it again I decided to wait a few months for MoM! Game looks great Josh and Co!!!

    Debating between this and block fortress war. Looks like a very fun game, love the genre and the setting, however, it's difficult not to go with foursaken
