About Cosmi-Cave 64
In this ultra-retro 64 x 64 mining game, you are a subterranean cosmonaut cultivator on a mission to find the Atlas Globe, a treasure only told in legend! Originally created for “Low Rez Jam”, this is an expanded version of the game that you can play for free! Its length is designed for single session playthroughs like the Atari games of old, but it’s procedural nature gives it replayability in a way that those old games did not.
Use your mining laser to dig through a procedurally-generated world. The world gets tougher as you descend ever further, but the rewards are richer.
There are other living things that lurk below the surface, and some loose rocks that may fall on you, so watch your head and use your mining laser!
Uncover and harvest various mineral deposits, and collect the dropped ore to fund your excavation! But don’t be too greedy and neglect your resources: Losing all your health, or self-destructing because you got stuck in the caves with no means of climbing out, will reduce your carried amount of money.
And those monsters you encounter? Some of them may drop fuel if you fight them.
Need a better laser to rip through the planet? Have low health from scuffling with the local wildlife? Need larger fuel reserves for longer trips under the surface? Return to the shop on the surface for some equipment upgrades! Be sure to plan your exit strategy as you dig, because you’d rather want to return to the shop by your own volition than to return because you made a mistake!

Very nice, small-scope game. Deserves more attention, as it is no-cost. A game about digging, collecting gems, upgrading, and surviving.2 found this helpful
Cosmi-Cave 64 is a 2D retro pixel "miner" game where you dig (shoot lasers) into the ground to explore what's below, collect minerals and sell them to refuel and upgrade. They chose to use obsolete retro pixel "art" as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics. It's unclear if this is due to lack of budget or talent, regardless, the overall visual quality of the game is extremely low as a result. The resolution is set extremely low here, to the point everything is a barely comprehensible, blocky mess. On purpose, possibly, but making something look bad on purpose isn't going to win any awards. Resolution and controls are locked. These flaws push this game far below minimum acceptable standards for PC. The game is completely free. Nothing speaks more to a developers belief in themselves and their product than making their game available for everyone without remuneration. This is certainly a gesture that shows dedication to the gaming industry. It's a shame in this case that the implementation is below the minimum standards a dedicated PC game should offer to enthusiasts. There's no "maybe" option in Steam, unfortunately, but I hope to see more work from this developer, …1 found this helpful
A very simple cave digging game. Honestly maybe a little too simple, but it's alright for what it is
Игра Cosmi-Cave 64 – это очаровательное, но немного простоватое приключение в ретро-стиле. Визуально игра напоминает старые добрые платформеры с Nintendo 64, что вызывает приятную ностальгию. Основной геймплей представляет собой исследование пещер, заполненных простыми головоломками и врагами, которых можно одолеть прыжками. Управление отзывчивое, но иногда кажется немного деревянным, что, впрочем, соответствует общей стилистике игры. Сюжет достаточно простой и не претендует на глубину, однако его достаточно, чтобы поддерживать интерес к исследованию мира. Несмотря на некоторую однообразность дизайна уровней и простоту геймплея, Cosmi-Cave 64 все же обладает определенным шармом. Это неплохая игра для тех, кто ищет что-то короткое и ненавязчивое, чтобы скоротать время и вспомнить игры своей юности. Любителям сложных и глубоких игр, возможно, стоит поискать что-то другое. В целом, Cosmi-Cave 64 – это достойный представитель жанра ретро-платформеров, получивший от меня твердую тройку с плюсом.
