🕹️ How to Play Motherload

✅ Controls:

• Arrow keys to move

• Spacebar to interact and refuel

• M key to open the map

• Q and W to toggle drill speed (in advanced upgrades)

🚀 Gameplay Overview:

1. Start by drilling the surface layer and collecting minerals like iron, copper, silver, and gold.

2. Return to the surface to sell your cargo and refuel.

3. Use the money to buy upgrades: better drills, fuel tanks, cargo bays, and hull repairs.

4. As you go deeper, rocks become tougher and more valuable minerals appear.

5. Avoid overheating and crashing – manage fuel and damage carefully.

💡 Tips and Tricks for Success

🔧 Upgrade Wisely
Focus first on fuel capacity and hull strength to avoid dying early. Then invest in better drills and cargo size.

💸 Mine Smart
Don’t waste fuel going sideways too much. Create vertical shafts and branch out logically.

🔥 Watch the Heat
Your drill can overheat in deeper layers. Upgrade your cooling system as you dig further.

🧨 Use Explosives Carefully
When things get tough, buy C4 or nukes to clear out rocks – but be careful not to damage your pod.

👾 Save Often
Use the save feature frequently – one wrong move at great depths can cost you hours of progress.

🌌 Unlock the Secrets
The deeper you go, the weirder things get. There’s more to Mars than just minerals…
