Diggers, a game forgotten ?
« on: March 14, 2012, 03:18:14 pm »
Hi all,

Just wanted to ask if anybody remember that wonderful game that was diggers ? And it's successor diggers extractors ?

That game was really a jewel and nobody ever made a game that was half as good as diggers :(
Sadly, everybody forgot it ! On www.mashu.org someone is trying to remake the first one but since it's not the only thing he does, the project hardly ever move forward :(

I wished some developers would take the concept again and develop it ! With different races maybe and as a strategy game with 2 teams (which are already there in the original ) and the goal would be to destroy the enemy base... A spell system with rpg elements could also work very well for this type of game ... Sadly we never saw anything like that... There was an attempt to create diggles but even that game with its old 3d was badly optimized and not too enjoyable in its mechanics... I don't know, the idea of digging a mine and building elevators and ladders etc... It's just a fantastic idea ! Many game tried like motherload but they were so far from the original concept of diggers :( that Xbox game though seemed amazing but I don't have a Xbox :/

Anyway, anybody knows if there games like that around ?

I really wish some developers would take back this old and very fun concept and would remake it :)

Arcen ? Anyone ? Lol
Ya, no, I know, not going to happen !
