Have you ever went to some mines to dig up some ore and thought "Wow, it would be a lot more fun if these things could run away from me scared!"?

…What? You haven't? Well now is the chance to play that situation with my game Runner Ore.

Move around with WASD or the arrow keys with LeftShift to sprint. You have a set amount of stamina, and if you deplete it all you'll get tired and move a lot slower. You throw your pick by using left-click, and your pick will be thrown in the direction of your cursor.

You chase these guys: OreBoys, that provide ore when hit. Careful, if you get to close to them they'll wake up scared and run away. So don't run around in the mines: it makes a lot of noise and wakes up the OreBoys before you can hit them.

These OreBoys provide a single piece of ore when hit, and will provide an extra when they are completely destroyed (RIP). Once you collect enough Ores, you can exit the mines using the stairs you started from. You can't exit unless you have enough.

At the end of a run, the time you took will be displayed. Try to reach for the fastest time!

A game where you have 4 tasks to juggle in the main room, that influence your blaster you use to destroy meteors! Don't put everything on full blast, though, or you'll risk an overheat!

Only this done so far. No menu, pause, game over, or anything else. Balancing is going okay. Good luck everyone!

What is this? A game done early with smooth development that wasn't suffer from scope? Preposterous!
