    MFI Support

    No controller support planned, sorry. We put a lot of time and thought into our decision, and decided we wanted to focus on intuitive touch controls for UI and gameplay.

    Mixing controller support with touch for UI often results in sub-par versions of both on touch devices in our opinion. We thought the UI in PM256 suffered for this, so we felt our time was better invested in making Digby a richer game with more content and variety :)

    Do the players play differently or just fun cosmetic changes? Love digging games, Puzzle to Center of the Earth is still my favorite digger game ever, glad to see you all make one.. still install Cubemen2 from time to time!

    Looks like same gameplay style of Pac man 256 which got stale pretty fast for me I think Mfi support would've been killer for this style of game The devs say say no I think that maybe many gamers who potentially want to play or who eventually play would like the option of using a controller for this kind of game Will this be f2p? Probaly, but who knows. I personally prefer premium games It looks pretty It almost reminds me of Dig Dug or Boulder Dash which I really enjoy but if its more like Pac man 256 I might have to pass especially if it's f2p

    Characters are just cosmetic. Gameplay is altered by our ability card system.. here's a sneak peak :)

    Is it F2P? Yes it is...
    is it like PM256? no it's not :)

    PM256 gameplay was still PM, no matter how you spin it, and that was by design and that was ok.

    Digby Foerever is an endless digging game that is super fast paced and gets so crazy, you sometimes can't even see yourself on the game screen! Thew rules in Digby Forever can be changed by you, the player, based on how you load out your ability card deck.

    Think Dig Dug meets Mr Driller, but for the modern world :)

    We'll be sharing our gameplay trailer in a few days, so everyone will have a clear understanding of gameplay very soon!

    The only thing that worries me for this game is the card packs. Card packs are bought with gems but will there be currency packs of gems to buy with really money?

    I really don't like high score chasers with currency packs cause then it's really "pay us $$$ to get a high score!" Instead of skill getting you that high score.

    We don't sell any form of currency packs for real money, in fact we are super light on our IAP.

    We've tried to build a super fun game that is monetised in a fair and opt-in way :)

    We have a studio tradition of doing lunch at Grill'd (one of our amazing Burger restaurants in Australia) on launch day of our games. I'm not sure exactly when it started, but it it's been going for a while and it's a celebratory meal to pat ourselves on the back for a hopeful job well done.

    Tomorrow I am ordering a Baaah (lamb burger) as it’s my fav!
