Galactic Mining Corp

Galactic Mining Corp is a game about building and expanding an intergalactic mining corporation and is the successor to GEO. Up until 30th November 2020, the game was known as "Geo 2", and was renamed to reflect a variety of considerations which are outlined here. It is a unique rogue-lite, action game with crafting and base building mechanics. Head out into uncharted space and discover a universe of locations to exploit for riches! Use your ever-growing profits to expand your HQ, hire a crazy work force, obtain new drill components and upgrade everything.

Galactic Mining Corp was released on 18th May 2021 on the Steam Store. As with most Windybeard games, much of the development is streamed live on Twitch.

Kickstarter Campaign
On Tuesday 28th July 2020, a GEO 2 Kickstarter campaign was launched to help fund the final stages of development. In addition to attractive pricing to access the game upon release, it also included a range of reward tiers that allowed backers to help design characters, drills, planets, and other content for the game. The Kickstarter campaign ended successfully on 27th August 2020, with 314 backers pledging a total of £10,019 (approx US$13,100). It achieved over 250% of its original funding target, and two stretch goals were unlocked to add an additional galaxy map (raising it from 3 to 4 galaxies), as well as Nano Drills for unattended resource mining.
