About Mining & Defense
**Game Introduction**
**"Farming is the strategy. Build your defenses while managing the risk of losing resources."**
*Mining & Defense* is a unique hybrid strategy game that fuses real-time **Mining** and **Defense** strategy. You lead the last-hope elite expedition team, landing on an unknown planet with the mission to extract the ultimate energy source, **"geelyn,"** to solve the energy crisis.
Defend the refinery from the endlessly incoming Hostiles and achieve the target refining quota. This provides a tense strategic experience where resource management, dynamic battlefield assessment, and the risk management of losing items in the explorer's inventory determine victory or defeat.
**Key Features**
* **Dynamic Strategic Economy based on Farming:** It introduces an 'Active Farming' system where you select resource mining locations and timing in real-time, moving beyond simple idle mechanics. Mined resources must be fed into the refinery to convert them into the **'geelyn' energy source**, and this currency is used to construct and place defensive facilities in real-time.
* **A Fusion of StarCraft and Roguelite:** Unlike conventional tower defense, it combines the resource gathering-base defense loop of StarCraft with the permanent growth meta of Roguelite. Experience unique strategic decision-making in every mission by constantly balancing farming speed against defensive line reinforcement.
* **High-Risk Management System:** The Explorer Inventory Raid system creates tangible pressure on the player with the threat of losing their farming results. This is a core strategic element that forces players to invest resources not just in defending the refinery, but also in defending the explorer's inventory.
* **In-Depth Strategic Satisfaction:** Create synergy by combining diverse unit characteristics (such as ranged, melee, and area-of-effect) and build sophisticated defensive lines using detailed terrain tactics like high/low ground advantages and defensive structures (Walls).
* **Visual Concept:** Based on low-polygon hard sci-fi and military styles, the contrast between futuristic turrets and bizarre creatures against a dark, desolate planetary background creates a heightened sense of tension.
