Greetings, new miners!

A developer interview for InfinityMine has just been published by the Japanese gaming media outlet "Game*Spark"!

The article delves deep into the core game design, discussing:

• The mining and economic system where thinking "just a little bit more" leads to ruin.

• Why I decided to create a roguelite with zero enemies.

• The focus on an overwhelming sense of "loneliness," completely removed from the noise of multiplayer games.

I talk about the behind-the-scenes of development and the true intentions behind the game's mechanics that couldn't be fully conveyed on the Steam store page alone. If you're curious about this nerve-wracking mining experience, please check out the article below! (Note: The article is in Japanese, but browser translation tools work great!)

This trailer is more than just a mood piece. It represents the core pillars of the game: Visuals, Audio, and the Game Loop. The footage uses actual in-game ores and events. As you continue your mining career, you may encounter scenes just like this deep underground.

■ Immersion via UE5 and Custom Audio Using Unreal Engine 5's Lumen lighting, we have captured the infinite darkness of the deep underground contrasted with the mesmerizing glow of ores. Furthermore, the environmental sounds and sound effects in this trailer (and in the game) have been uniquely recorded and EQ-engineered to maximize immersion. From the heavy impact of the pickaxe striking rock to the reverberations within the cave, we want you to feel the solitude of the underground not just with your eyes, but with your ears.

■ The Story: Greed, Death, and Learning In the video, the player faces two choices:

An alluring route with visible ores right in front of them.

A dark, narrow route where the path ahead is unknown.

In the footage, choosing immediate gain leads to a trap—a rockfall ends the journey. But that is not the end. Time rewinds, and the player starts their life over again.

This embodies the Roguelite nature of InfinityMine.

"Death is not the end, but a learning process. Even if you lose your items, the sensation of the pickaxe ingrained in your hands will never be lost."

Use failure as fuel to overcome fear and push deeper. Only there does the true fortune lie.

Don't fear the risk. Learn, adapt, and dig deeper. See you underground.
