› Mine or Burn

what is Mine or Burn?

Mine asteroids, automate resource collection, and upgrade your ship to survive deeper sectors in this active incremental roguelite.

Invest in mining, ship, and defense upgrades across multiple tiers to improve resource collection and combat capabilities. Automate mining operations and fuel hyperjumps to evade pursuers. Progress through branching star systems, unlocking permanent upgrades and new challenges with each run.

It sits in the Automation / Strategy / Sci-Fi corner of the genre. Like most idle games it runs on a simple loop — earn, reinvest, automate — but the depth is in how long that loop keeps unfolding. Expect to check in, make a few decisions, and watch the numbers climb whether you're at the keyboard or not.
