A data retrieval mission down in the evacuated Mine 41-A. This is a short experiance that can be beaten within an hour.

<h2 class="bb_tag" >Project Earthquake</h2>You have been tasked to return to Mine 41-A and retrieve the research data left behind during the evacuation. The mining equipment you’ve been assigned to in an old prototype mining drill, something not intended to actually be used. The engineers have got as far as making it functional before your mission, so you will need to maintain the vessel as you go.<br><br><span class="bb_img_ctn"><img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3184130/extras/8556d40eee90dde954f8413d55d320c8.webp?t=1733616124" width=128 height=52 /></span><h2 class="bb_tag" >Gameplay</h2>Navigation requires the use of echo-cast; a kind of echolocation raycasting that’ll project a digital representation of what’s in front of you.<br><br>Power is something you’ll need to manage, so using the scanner to find energy signatures will be helpful in replenishing your power as well as locating outposts.<br><br>Once in range of an outpost, use the Short Ranged Receiver (S.R.R.) to download the data that was left behind in that outpost.<br><br><span class="bb_img_ctn"><img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3184130/extras/47b2da9506608fea186bc043dfcc3b4b.avif?t=1733616124" width=600 height=170 /></span><br><br>During your mission, you’ll find that your mining vessel is leaking air, so you’ll need to cycle the oxygen back in the air lock.

I had floated the idea of making a reboot in 3D, and did so in 2023 for the GDevelop 3D jam. After a short break, I wanted to remake the jam version of the game, make it a more fleshed out experience, so after a short break, I started work on Power Driller 2, later Project Earthquake, and then finally Terracrest.
